Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: We aimed to study temporal trends in cardiogenic shock (CS) complicating acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and assessed the predictors of shock development during hospitalization and of mortality. METHODS: Data were obtained from 2 Korean AMI Registries (KAMIRs), the KAMIR-National Institutes of Health (early) and KAMIR-V (late). Patients with CS were those with CS before admission (ba-CS) and those who developed CS during admission as a complication of AMI (da-CS). Temporal trends were examined as early (2011-2015) and late (2016-2020) periods. RESULTS: A total of 28,990 patients was included, of whom 3,179 (11.0%) had CS. The overall prevalence of CS decreased from 12.5% to 9.6% (p for trend
