Post-Acute Phase of Cardiogenic Shock

Sponsor: Mackay Memorial Hospital

Summary

Epidemiology studies showed that the burden of cardiogenic shock (CS) persistently high, with increasing annual medical expenses and steady prevalence. In-hospital and one-year mortality reduce annually. Hence, there are increasing number of patients who survive to hospital discharge but they will face further challenges in the subacute stage after hospital discharge. However, there are still insufficient studies focusing on this issue. Establishment of a healthcare neatwork to help hospital survivors of CS return society safely is critical.
