2. 1. Hypothermia as an adjunctive therapy in Acute Myocardial Infarction and Cardiogenic Shock

   Author : Matthias Götberg; Kardiologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; AMI; Cardiogenic Shock; CMR; Hypothermia;

   Abstract : INTRODUCTION: Reperfusion therapy in patients with an ongoing ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is to re-establish coronary flow in the epicardial arteries as soon as possible in order to reduce infarct size and associated complications. Hypothermia has in experimental studies been shown to reduce infarct size. READ MORE

5. 3. Factors influencing prognosis in acute coronary syndrome - A report from the SWEDEHEART registry

   Author : Oskar Angerås; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Acute coronary syndrome; acute myocardial infarction; risk factors; obesity paradox; socioeconomic status; cardiogenic shock; thrombus aspiration; SWEDEHEART; SCAAR; RIKS-HIA;

   Abstract : Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is one of the major causes of mortality in the world. The prognosis for patients with ACS is affected by several factors, such as baseline characteristics and treatment before, during and after hospitalisation. . READ MORE

6. 4. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for the treatment of cardiogenic shock : identification of pre-implant outcome predictors

   Author : Thomas Fux; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Background: Refractory cardiogenic shock (RCS), cardiac arrest (CA) and postarrest cardiogenic shock (CS) are associated with high mortality. Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is increasingly used and can offer acute cardiopulmonary life support in this critically ill population but selection of VA-ECMO candidates remains challenging.

7. 5. Mechanical Circulatory Support in Left Ventricular Heart Failure

   Author : Petter Schiller; Laila Hellgren; Anders Jönsson; Göran Dellgren; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Mechanical Circulatory Support; Left Ventricular Heart Failure; Left Ventricular Assist Device; Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation; ECMO; Thorax Surgery; Thoraxkirurgi;

   Abstract : Short-term mechanical circulatory support (MCS) with ventricular assist devices or veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) has become the standard treatment in patients with cardiogenic shock unresponsive to pharmacological treatment. However, the haemodynamic effects of these devices are not yet fully described, nor are their effects on ventricular function and myocardial recovery. READ MORE
