Percutaneous transvalvular micro-axial flow pump in infarct related cardiogenic shock: Results of the DANGER-shock Trial

Reported from ACC.24

Mirvat Alasnag interviews Jacob Eifer Møller about the results of the DANGER-shock Trial which he presented at the ACC.24 in Atlanta.

Results show that the implantation of microaxial flow pump post-heart attack significantly boosts survival in patients with STEMI-related cardiogenic shock, though with increased complications. The trial's positive findings indicate potential routine use in severe cases, with benefits persisting beyond 30 days, albeit with notable risks.
