Overview
Cardiogenic shock is considered an emergency and irrespectively to the therapeutic approach, the target goal of any therapy is prompt revascularization of ischemic myocardium. This should be achieved in the shortest timespan possible. There are two major categories of treatment for cardiogenic shock, the medical/conservative approach and the interventional approach. The ideal treatment combines both techniques, in which medical therapy, after restored filling pressures, allows hemodynamical stabilization of the patient, until interventional methods, that contribute to the reversal of the process leading to the shock state, may performed. The interventional approach may include PCI or coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) and in both techniques the goal is not only to reestablish perfusion of the occluded coronary artery, but also to prevent vessel reoclusion. If there is no access to a cardiac catheterization facility, nor the possibility of transferring the patient to one within 90 minutes, then immediately thrombolytic therapy should be considered.[1] Other important factors to increase the chances of a better outcome are: mechanical ventilation, in order to improve tissue oxygenation, and close monitoring of the therapeutic dosages, particularly of vasoactive drugs, since these have been associated with excess mortality due to toxicity effects.[2][3] Also, it is recommended invasive hemodynamic monitoring, in order to monitor and guide the effects of the therapy as well as the overall status of the patient. The success of reperfusion is usually suggested by the relief of symptoms, restoration of hemodynamic parameters and electrical stability, as well as the reduction of at least 50% in the ST-segment on the EKG, in the case of a STEMI.[1][4]
Medical Therapy
Cardiogenic shock is considered a medical emergency and therefore resuscitative therapy is mandatory before permanent damage to vital organs has settled in. In order to improve chances of a better outcome, prompt diagnosis, adequate filling pressure and pharmacological therapy, to insure maintenance of adequate hemodynamic parameters, should be started within the shortest timespan possible.
Irrespectively to the therapeutic approach, the target goal of any therapy is prompt revascularization of ischemic myocardium. In order to do so and depending on the underlying cause of shock, the therapeutic approach, along with the class of drugs needed, might be different.
Depending on the underlying cause for the cardiogenic shock, the approach of treatment will change. Knowing that myocardial infarction is the most common cause for this condition, prompt revascularization of the ischemic myocardium is gold standard. However, other causes may require more invasive interventions, such as heart valve repair or even heart transplant. It is also important to address metabolic, electrolyte and acid-base abnormalities that may be present. Throughout this process it is important to keep a constant a constant invasive hemodynamic monitoring, such as a central line, in order to have as accurate values as possible as well as to facilitate some techniques, such as volume resuscitation.
Urgent Revascularizaiton
According to the AHA/ACC guidelines, in patients presenting with left ventricular failure, following STEMI, complicated by cardiogenic shock and irrespectively to the timespan since myocardial infarction onset, emergent revascularization procedure, either by PCI or CABG, is recommended (under a level of evidence B).[5][6][7][8] If a patient presents with a STEMI, then primary angioplasty should be considered to restore blood flow to the culprit artery, however and since vascular disease is commonly present in multiple vessels in cardiovascular patients, consideration should be given to the evaluation and restoration of flow of non-culprit territories in the setting of cardiogenic shock. For patients with cardiogenic shock complicating STEMI, who are unsuitable candidates for PCI or CABG, and in the absence of contraindications, is indicated the administration of fibrinolytic therapy (under a level of evidence B).[5][9] [10][11]
Administration of streptokinase therapy to patients with cardiogenic shock has not been associated with an improvement in survival.[12] Yet, these studies are older and limited by the infrequent use of adjunctive PCI.
Volume Management
The goal of managing the patient with cardiogenic shock is to optimize the filling of the left ventricle so that the starling relationship, mechanical performance and contractility of the heart are optimized. In the setting of acute MI, a pulmonary capillary wedge pressure of 18 to 20 mm Hg may optimize left ventricular filling. Filling pressures higher than this may lead to LV dilation and poorer LV function.
Pharmacologic Hemodynamic Support
According to the recommendations of the AHA/ACC guidelines, in the case of cardiogenic shock complicating acute MI, the most common cause of CS, pharmacological therapy with vasopressor and inotropic drugs, stands as a mainstay in the management of these patients.[13] If hypotension persists, despite adequate left ventricular filling pressures, then the addition of vasoconstrictors and/or inotropes is suggested. Hemodynamic monitoring is essential to assure that a target mean arterial pressure (MAP) of 60 to 65 mmHg is achieved, in order to maintain perfusion to vital organs, such as the brain, kidney and heart, as well as to monitor and guide the effects and doses of the treatment drugs. The main purpose of these vasoactive drugs is to maintain adequate perfusion to peripheral tissues. However, due to the significant toxicity of these drugs, they should be given in doses as minimal as possible. This toxicity may translate into short and long-term adverse effects, such as activation of pro-apoptotic signaling cascades, mitochondrial damage or membrane disruption and necrosis, following increases of already elevated cytosolic calcium levels in postischemic cardiac myocytes, after administration of dopamine.[14] When choosing the dosages and medications to use, it is better to choose combinations of moderate doses of different medications, than to use the maximal dose of any individual drug.[15]
Although a definitive approach to determine the adequate administration and titration of a certain vasoactive medications and proper volume manipulation are yet to be established, this evaluation may be done by targeting:[16]
- a particular MAP
- an increase in cardiac output
- indices of organ perfusion, such as urine output, while maintaining adequate oxygenation.
Selection of a Vasopressor or an Inotrope
In a clinical setting patients are usually treated with a combination of vasopressors and inotropes. However, according to the AHA/ACC guidelines:
- Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) > 80 mm Hg
Dobutamine may be preferable over dopamine in patients with blood pressure at this range. Dopamine increases contractility and heart rate, thereby increasing myocardial oxygen demand. Dobutamine reduces the systemic vascular resistance and may not increase oxygen demands as much as dopamine, and is preferable at this systolic blood pressure. Phosphodiesterase inhibitors (PDIs) such as milrinone and inamrinone (formerly known as amrinone) are not dependent upon the adrenoreceptor activity and patients may not develop tolerance, and they may be less likely to increase myocardial oxygen demands. However, the addition of a vasopressor is often required as these agents reduce preload and afterload. PDIs are more likely to be associated with tachyarrhythmias than dobutamine.
- Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) < 80 mm Hg
At systolic blood pressures < 80 mm Hg dopamine should be initiated first. The patient may not tolerate the vasodilating effects of dobutamine at this blood pressure. The initial dose of dopamine is 5 to 10 mcg/kg/min.
If the dopamine at doses of 20 mcg/kg/min does not achieve a MAP of 60-65 mm Hg, then norepinephrine can be added at an initial dose of 0.5 mcg/kg/min which can then be titrated up to 3.3 mcg/kg/min. Norepinephrine is avoided as a first line agent because of its adverse impact upon renal perfusion.
If norepinephrine does not generate a MAP of 60 mm Hg, then epinephrine can be added. Epinephrine increases both the stroke volume and heart rate, but is associated with lactic acidosis.
Mechanical Support
Intra-aortic Balloon Placement
According to the AHA/ACC guidelines, IABP may be indicated in patients left ventricular failure, following STEMI, complicated by cardiogenic shock (under a level of evidence B) who fail to respond to pharmacological therapy.[5] In the setting of acute MI, the placement of an IABP (which reduces workload for the heart and improves perfusion of the coronary arteries) should be considered.
A recent meta-analysis of randomized trial data, however, challenges this common practice and class 1B recommendation.[17] In a meta-analysis of seven randomized trials enrolling 1009 patients, IABP placement in STEMI patients was not associated with a decrease in mortality nor improvement in left ventricular function but was associated with a higher rate of stroke and bleeding. When data from non-randomized cohort studies were evaluated in a meta-analysis (n=10,529 STEMI patients with cardiogenic shock), IABP placement was associated with an 18% relative risk reduction in 30 day mortality, among patients treated with a fibrinolytic agent. This particular analysis is confounded by the fact that those patients in whom an IABP was placed, underwent adjunctive percutaneous intervention (PCI) more frequently. In this non-randomized cohort analysis, IABP placement in patients undergoing primary angioplasty was associated with a 6% relative increase in mortality (p<0.0008). Thus, neither randomized nor observational data support IABP placement in the setting of primary PCI for cardiogenic shock and careful consideration should be given to the risk of stroke and bleeding, prior to IABP placement in this population.
Left Ventricular Assist Device Placement
According to the AHA/ACC guidelines, alternative LV assist devices may be indicated in patients with refractory cardiogenic shock for circulatory support (under a level of evidence C).[5] In the setting of pronounced hypotension, despite medical therapy and IABP placement, LV assist devices, which augment the pump-function of the heart, should be considered. A ventricular assist device should only be placed in those patients in whom cardiogenic shock is deemed to be reversible or if it is being used as a bridge option.[18]
Percutaneous LV assist devices (PLVADs) such as Tandem heart, Impella, ECMO may be used until cardiac recovery occurs, as a temporary procedure during high-risk coronary interventions, or as a bridge to definitive therapy, such as heart transplant, left ventricular assist device (LVAD) or decision making. They provide improved hemodynamics in patients with cardiogenic shock.[19]
Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) Placement
CABG in this setting is associated with high rates of mortality and morbidity, therefore if primary angioplasty can be performed successfully, CABG is preferably avoided.
Invasive Hemodynamic Monitoring
Considering the importance of proper blood pressure assessment in patients in shock, along with the fact that peripheral vasoconstriction may jeopardize blood pressure assessment through common manual sphygmomanometry, all patients should have an indwelling arterial pressure catheter placed in order to gather more accurate measurements.[20][21] This method not only supplies continuous hemodynamic data, unlike other manual methods, but also allows for the collection of arterial blood gas samples. The most commonly used catheter is the flow-directed balloon-tipped pulmonary artery catheter, which not only allows for cardiac output determination, as it is a good method for hemodynamic assessment of these patients, as well as continuous monitoring of pulmonary artery and central venous pressure and waveforms.[22] With this device is also possible to collect blood from the pulmonary artery, therefore enabling determination of MVO2, to verify oxygen delivery and it also helps in the diagnosis of left-to-right shunts, associated with anatomic abnormalities. All these features make the flow-directed balloon-tipped pulmonary artery catheter a good tool for diagnosis, management and monitoring of therapy of cardiogenic shock patients.[23]
Other monitoring techniques include:[24]
- Oxymetry - although a useful tool in theory, since oxygen delivery will be directly affected by arterial oxygen saturation, it has some limitations, such as affected results from ambient lights, hypothermia and dyshemoglobinemias. Also, motion artifacts, vasoconstriction and hypoperfusion in the shock state will jeopardize the readings.[25][26][27]
- Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) - an innovative technique that allows for monitoring of tissue oxygenation by measuring regional tissue blood flow, oxygen delivery and utilization. The near-infrared light passes through biological tissues, such as muscle and skin, and is absorbed by chromophores that is has passed through. The chromophores known to absorb the near-infrared light wavelength are cytochrome aa3, hemoglobin and myoglobin, depending on the level of oxygenation. Since peripheral tissue hypoperfusion is a good marker of cardiovascular stress, NIRS presents itself as a good method to assess, in real-time, tissue perfusion throughout the evaluation and treatment periods, as well as during resuscitation.[28][29][30][31][32][33]
- Advanced echocardiography in the ICU - particularly with the development of more advanced echocardiographic techniques, such as TEE and contrast echocardiography, the inclusion of this noninvasive method in ICU has allowed for the decreased of more invasive techniques, such as pulmonary artery catheterization. This replacement has been seen due to the vast amount of important data that this method provides, such as assessment of of hemodynamic stability, cardiac output, stroke volume, preload, detection of anatomic abnormalities, intravascular volume status, pulmonary artery pressures, diagnosis of hemodynamically significant pulmonary embolism, among others.[34][35]
Mechanical Ventilation
Mechanical ventilation is often required in patients with cardiogenic shock to assure adequate oxygenation.
