Summary
Key Learning Points
1. Mechanical circulatory support is not a treatment per se.
2. Treating the underlying cause for cardiogenic shock is vital.
3. Early discussion and referral provide the best chance for a successful outcome.
4. Matching the patient and the device demands significant expertise.
5. High-quality evidence for benefit is lacking.
