Percutaneous Mechanical Circulatory Support Versus Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump for Treating Cardiogenic Shock

In patients with cardiogenic shock after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), mortality remains high despite advances in treatment. Short-term percutaneous circulatory support devices provide superior hemodynamic support compared with the intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP). American guidelines have
