Description of intervention(s) / exposure
It is our aim to characterise coronary and microcirculatory physiology in cardiogenic shock of differing aetiologies and in patients receiving various haemodynamic support strategies. Invasive coronary physiologic assessment will be performed using a 0.014-inch pressure/temperature-tipped angioplasty guidewire (PressureWire Certus or PressureWireX, manufactured by Abbott). This will be performed following routine coronary angiography (and percutaenous coronary intervention, if performed), while the patient is attending the catheterisation laboratory. Patients included will be those requiring haemodynamic support, which may include inotropes, VA ECMO, or Impella. Measurements will be perfomed whilst in the catheterisation laboratory (over a period of approximately 20 minutes) at baseline support and at 50% reduction in haemodynamic support (i.e VA ECMO flows reduced by 50%).

Statistical methods / analysis
Continuous variables will be presented as medians and interquartile ranges or mean and standard deviation (as appropriate). Categorical variables are presented as frequencies and percentages. All tests will be assessed at the 5% significance level. Differences in proportions were assessed using the Chi square test, Fisher Exact or McNemar test for paired comparisons.


The differences between VA-ECMO, Impella and inotrope group measurements will be compared using an ANOVA test for normally distributed data and Kruskal-Wallis testing for non-normally distributed data. Comparison within MCS groups will assess the differences between haemodynamic variables from the measurements obtained on maximum and minimum support using paired t testing for normally distributed data and Wilcoxon signed-rank testing for non-normally distributed data.

Summary
Brief summary
Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a clinical syndrome which is characterised by cellular and tissue hypoxia due to either inadequate oxygen delivery, increased oxygen demand, or a combination of these processes. It may present on a clinical spectrum ranging from occult hypoperfusion (with preserved blood pressure) to fulminant circulatory collapse. For patients presenting with CS, approximately 80% of cases can be attributed to an underlying cause of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). In patients with refractory CS that is not responsive to conventional measures such as fluid resuscitation, inotropic or vasopressor supports and revascularisation, mechanical circulatory support (MCS) can represent a reasonable salvage therapy. To date there is no data assessing the impact of various support modalitites on coronary physiology. We aim to characterise coronary perfusion in the shocked state, comparing and contrasting the impact of various support strategies.
