In this review, we describe the clinical manifestations, evaluation, and management of PICS.…

Trajectories of Host-Response Subphenotypes in Patients With COVID-19 Across the Spectrum of Respiratory Support

Improved understanding of the dynamic…

In the last decade, early mobilization (EM) has emerged as an intervention to help prevent or to mitigate ICU-AW, or both, and to improve functional outcomes for patients. Despite its…

The Management of Cardiogenic Shock From Diagnosis to Devices

Fatimah A. Alkhunaizi, Nikolhaus Smith, Samuel B. Brusca et al. · 17 Apr 2024

Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a heterogenous syndrome broadly characterized by inadequate cardiac output leading to tissue hypoperfusion and multisystem organ dysfunction that carries an ongoing high mortality burden. The management of CS has advanced rapidly, especially with the incorporation of temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) devices. A thorough understanding of how to approach a patient…
