Vasoactive–Inotropic Score Reduction Rate Is Highly Associated With Prognosis for Critically Ill Patients With Cardiogenic Shock: Insights From the Real‐World Dynamic Data

open access: yesCardiovascular Therapeutics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background In cardiogenic shock (CS), titration of both the choice and dosage of inotropes and vasopressors is crucial. The vasoactive–inotropic score (VIS) quantifies hemodynamic support, while the effect of temporal VIS change on prognosis remains unclear. This study evaluated the association between the vasoactive–inotropic score reduction rate (VRR)
