Overview
Historical perspective
The term "cardiogenic shock" is thought to have first arisen in 1942 with Stead, who after studying a series of two patients, described them has having a "shock of cardiac origin". This designation would later be rephrased as "cardiogenic shock".[1] However, the clinical features of cardiogenic shock had first been described by Herrick, in 1912, who noticed in severe coronary artery disease patients a profound weakness, a rapid pulse, pulmonary rales, faint cardiac tones, cyanosis and dyspnea.[2]
