Popis: | 192 www.ccmjournal.org Cardiogenic shock (CS) complicates 7–10% of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarctions (STEMI). In the last decade, increased availability of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has decreased the prevalence of CS in STEMI; despite this, mortality in these patients remains above 50%. It has been demonstrated that prompt PCI can improve outcomes among patients with STEMI complicated by CS (1, 2). A majority of these patients have associated multivessel disease (MVD) (3, 4) that is an independent predictor of mortality (5, 6). Optimal revascularization strategies in these patients remain controversial (7–13). Guidelines from the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association and the European Society of Cardiology state that only the infarctrelated artery (IRA) should be treated during the initial intervention for patients not in CS (14, 15). There are exceptions, although present guidelines do not explicitly recommend it.
