DETROIT CARDIOGENIC SHOCK INITIATIVE ALGORITHM

INCLUSION CRITERIA
Acute Myocardial Infarction
 Ischemic Symptoms
 EKG and/or biomarker evidence of AMI (STEMI or NSTEMI)
Cardiogenic Shock
 Hypotension (<90/60) or the need for vasopressors or inotropes to maintain systolic
blood pressure >90
 Evidence of end organ hypoperfusion (cool extremities, oliguria, lactic acidosis)
ACTIVATE CATH LAB
ACCESS & SUPPORT
 Obtain femoral arterial access (via direct visualization with use of ultrasound and fluoroscopy)
 Obtain venous access (Femoral or Internal Jugular)
 Obtain either Fick calculated cardiac index or LVEDP
IF LVEDP >15 or Cardiac Index < 2.2 AND anatomy suitable, place IMPELLA Coronary Angiography & PCI
 Attempt to provide TIMI III flow in all major epicardial vessels other than CTO
 If unable to obtain TIMI III flow, consider administration of intra-coronary vasodilators
