Review Meta Analysis
Short-Term Efficacy and Safety of Different Mechanical Hemodynamic Support Devices for Cardiogenic Shock or High-Risk Pci: a Network Meta-Analysis of Thirty-Seven Trials.
With more advanced mechanical hemodynamic support for patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) or high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention (HS-PCI), the morality rate is now significantly lower than before. While previous studies showed that intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) did not reduce the risk of mortality in patients with CS compared to conservative treatment, the efficacy in other mechanical circulatory support (MCS) trials was inconsistent. ⋯ Following this analysis, ECMO+IABP might be a more suitable intervention measure in improving short-term mortality for patients with CS and who underwent HS-PCI. However, the result was limited by the lack of sufficient direct comparisons and evidence from randomized controlled trials. Moreover, bleeding and other device-related complications should be considered in clinical applications.
