Genetic study of outcomes in cardiogenic shock
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a person’s genetic information (genomics) can help predict outcomes in cardiogenic shock. You may be asked to give consent and provide information during a serious heart-related emergency, usually soon after symptoms start.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You (or your legal representative) can consent to take part in the study.
- Your cardiogenic shock must start within 24 hours of your heart-symptom start.
- Your shock must be caused by a heart attack (STEMI or NSTEMI), or by myocarditis—not another cause.
- You must have plans or have already had treatment to reopen the blocked heart artery (revascularisation) after the event.
- You must meet the study’s shock measures: very low blood pressure for at least 30 minutes and needing medicines (vasopressors/inotropes) to keep blood pressure up, plus signs of poor organ function (like confusion, cold/clammy skin, very low urine, or higher lactate).

This study tracks how well people with cardiogenic shock (a life-threatening drop in blood flow after a heart attack or heart failure worsening) do when treated with modern support devices and medicines.
This trial tests a treatment plan for people having a severe heart attack that causes cardiogenic shock, where the heart can't pump enough blood. The study uses a special heart pump to support patients during an emergency procedure to open blocked arteries.
This study looks at how people with cardiogenic shock (or very low blood pressure from heart causes) do after treatment in a specialized cardiovascular ICU. It also examines whether care by heart critical-care specialists affects outcomes.
This registry tracks patients experiencing cardiogenic shock—a serious condition where the heart suddenly cannot pump enough blood to the body. Researchers collect information about patient outcomes and treatments to better understand what helps people recover.
This trial is testing different approaches (medications and mechanical support) to help people with acute heart failure and cardiogenic shock (a sudden drop in the heart's pumping ability). It looks at how well these treatments work in a network of hospitals to improve outcomes.
This study looks at whether adding two simple blood test markers to a standard heart failure score can better predict recovery in people with cardiogenic shock, a condition where the heart cannot pump enough blood. The goal is to help doctors tailor treatment for each patient.
