Avances en soporte circulatorio mecánico en el manejo del shock cardiogénico por Infarto Agudo de Miocardio
Keywords:
Cardiogenic shock, Impella, Acute myocardial infarction, Mechanical circulatory support, Ventricular assistance.Abstract
Cardiogenic shock (CS) due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a critical condition requiring urgent intervention to restore perfusion and save the patient's life. In this context, mechanical circulatory support (MCS) technology has been pivotal, with Impella emerging as one of the most promising options. Impella is a ventricular assist device inserted percutaneously to provide hemodynamic support to the left ventricle, improving perfusion and reducing cardiac workload. Its use has proven effective in managing cardiogenic shock, especially in complicated AMI cases, improving mortality rates and recovery. This article discusses recent advancements in the use of Impella for CS management, addressing its clinical impact, indications, and future perspectives in modern cardiology.
