Refractory cardiogenic shock due to extensive anterior STEMI with covered left ventricular free wall rupture treated with awake VA-ECMO and LVAD as a double bridge to heart transplantation - collaboration of three cardiac centres

Refractory cardiogenic shock due to extensive anterior STEMI with covered left ventricular free wall rupture treated with awake VA-ECMO and LVAD as a double bridge to heart transplantation - collaboration of three cardiac centres

Aim: To highlight an optimal collaborative strategy of three different levels of specialized care cardiac centres. Background: Refractory cardiogenic shock is a life-threatening condition. A myocardial recovery is not achieved in many cases despite all efforts and subsequently the heart transplantat...
