SHOCK

Early Revascularization in Acute Myocardial Infarction Complicated by Cardiogenic Shock - The New England Journal of Medicine - 1999

Brief Summary:

Compared to initial medical stabilization, early revascularization was associated with a nonsignificant trend towards improved survival at 30 days among patients who developed cardiogenic shock during acute MI. However, early revascularization did confer a significant benefit by 6 months.
