JHLT: The Podcast: Cardiogenic Shock Working Group
On this episode of JHLT: The Podcast, the Digital Media Editors invite co-lead author Nir Uriel, MD, Director of Advanced Heart Failure and Cardiac Transplantation at New York Presbyterian Hospital and Professor of Medicine at Columbia University.
Dr. Uriel joins to discuss the work of the Cardiogenic Shock Working Group (CSWG) and their recent paper, “Outcomes of patients supported on Impella 5.5 for more than 14 days: A Cardiogenic Shock Working Group registry analysis.”
You can also stream the podcast on Spotify, Amazon, iTunes, and anywhere else you get podcasts.
The discussion explores:
- Why patients on longer duration of MCS had better survival but maintained similar rates of serious adverse events (SAEs)
- Why the study might show fewer SAEs than the literature historically shows
- How temporary MCS devices are selected in clinical settings in patients with cardiogenic shock
- The ongoing and upcoming activities of CSWG
