Cardiogenic shock mortality according to Aetiology in a Mediterranean cohort: Results from the Shock‐CAT study

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1336-1345, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Mortality in cardiogenic shock (CS) remains elevated, with the potential for CS causes to impact prognosis and risk stratification. The aim was to investigate in‐hospital prognosis and mortality in CS patients according to aetiology. We also assessed the prognostic accuracy of CardShock and IABP‐SHOCK II scores.

Preoperative Atrial Fibrillation Does Not Impact Long‐Term Survival and Complications in Left Ventricular Assistance Device Recipients

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
In this large multicenter study, AF before LVAD implantation was not associated with increased risks of mortality, bleeding, stroke, or pump thrombosis, but was linked to a higher incidence of late VAs. ABSTRACT Introduction A substantial proportion of patients receiving left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) present with pre‐existing atrial ...

Levosimendan in Cardiac Arrest (LeiCA): Protocol for a Randomized, Double‐Blind, Phase II Clinical Trial

open access: yesActa Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 70, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Despite developments in advanced life support, outcomes after out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remain poor. Levosimendan, a calcium‐sensitizing inodilator commonly used in heart failure, has shown beneficial effects in several experimental models and anecdotal clinical cases of cardiac arrest. The Levosimendan in Cardiac Arrest

Magnesium in Aconitine‐Induced Electrical Storm—Mechanism Yes, Mandate No

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 31, Issue 1, January 2026.
Critical analysis reveals verapamil is contraindicated in aconitine poisoning and flecainide is superior to magnesium monotherapy. Our algorithm positions Class IC antiarrhythmics as first‐line, with magnesium serving as adjunctive metabolic therapy. ABSTRACT Aconitine poisoning produces lethal ventricular arrhythmias through persistent activation of ...
