Mashup Score: 3
Critical care cardiology refers to the practice focus of and subspecialty training for the comprehensive management of life-threatening cardiovascular diseases and comorbid conditions that require advanced critical care in an intensive care unit. The development of coronary care units is often credited for a dramatic decline in mortality rates after acute myocardial infarction throughout the 1960s. As the underlying patient population became progressively sicker, changes in organizational structure, staffing, care delivery, and training paradigms lagged. The coronary care unit gradually evolved from a focus on rapid resuscitation from ventricular arrhythmias in acute myocardial infarction into a comprehensive cardiac intensive care unit designed to care for the sickest patients with cardiovascular disease. Over the past decade, the cardiac intensive care unit has continued to transform with an aging population, increased clinical acuity, burgeoning cardiac and noncardiac comorbidities,

Mashup Score: 87Survivorship After Cardiogenic Shock | Circulation - 22 day(s) ago
Advances in critical care therapies for patients with cardiogenic shock (CS), including temporary mechanical circulatory support and multidisciplinary shock teams, have led to improved survival to hospital discharge, ranging from 60% to 70%. After their index hospitalization, however, survivors of CS may continue to face cardiac as well as extracardiac sequelae of these therapies and complications for years to come. Most studies in CS have focused primarily on survival, with limited data on long-term recovery measures among survivors. In other forms of critical illness, research indicates that many intensive care unit survivors experience impairments in multiple domains, such as cognitive function, physical ability, and mental health. These impairments, collectively referred to as Post–Intensive Care Syndrome, in turn impact survivors’ quality of life and future prognosis. This review identifies unique aspects of CS–related survivorship, highlights lessons learned from other forms of c

Mashup Score: 4Voluntary Reporting of Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy Use Rates in the Public Domain: A Challenge to the Heart Failure Community - 5 month(s) ago
Achieving target or maximally tolerated doses of Guideline Directed Medical Therapy (GDMT) is associated with decreased morbidity and mortality rates in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).1 However, in a contemporary cohort of outpatients with HFrEF, the percentage of patients achieving target dosages of GDMT was woefully low, with < 1% of patients achieving target dosages of 3 foundational components of GDMT: (ACE [angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor], ARB [angiotensin receptor blocker], or ARNI [angiotensin receptor/neprilysin inhibitor]); beta-blocker; and MRA [mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist] at 1-year follow-up.
