Official Title: French Observatory on the Management of Cardiogenic Shock in 2016
Brief Summary:
Cardiogenic shock (CS) is defined as an organ hypoperfusion secondary to low cardiac output. Catches diagnostic management, and therapeutic monitoring of these patients remain highly variable from one center to another and even from one doctor to another within the same team. The management protocols are often not standardized or non-existent.
It appears therefore necessary to make an inventory of the management practices of the CS in France in 2016, prerequisite to a common work of standardization of practices and the creation of specialized networks to support these complex patients.
