400.11 Impact on Mortality by Presenting Lactate Level and Lactate Clearance in Refractory Cardiogenic Shock Supported by Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Abstract

Current therapies for refractory cardiogenic shock (CS) include the use of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) to provide complete circulatory support. Contemporary studies in acute mechanical support and CS suggest that lactate clearance is an important prognostic marker. We
