This episode of the Surgical Critical Care Review podcast covers the diagnosis and management of cardiogenic shock, including the use of labs, pulmonary artery catheter hemodynamics, and the Fick principle to assess perfusion deficits. Through a series of patient cases, the discussion progresses from pharmacologic support to advanced mechanical circulatory assist devices — including intra-aortic balloon pumps, Impella, ECMO, and durable LVADs — and the clinical reasoning behind choosing the right device for each patient's flow deficit.
