Findings from the VAD WEAN Cardiac Recovery Registry presented at #ISHLT2024

Question from the moderator: “what does this tell us about the utility of the physical exam in cardiogenic shock?” I think it tells us how necessary the PACCS trial will be. How many of these critically ill patients are “warm”? Shashank Sinha, MD, MSc, FACC, FAHA Manreet Kanwar Navin Kapur #CSWG

McHale Anderson following up asking if AMI patients vasodilate more, and if this explains increased mortality. The answer? Yes. Accounts for nearly 50% of the increased mortality in a mediation analysis. Important findings. Mechanism?? #ISHLT2024 Stavros George Drakos James Fang
