French Observatory on the Management of Cardiogenic Shock 2

The aim of this observational study is to describe the baseline characteristics, management strategies, and early outcomes (during hospitalisation and at 30 days) of patients admitted to intensive care with cardiogenic shock, regardless of aetiology. This prospective multicenter registry will enroll consecutive patients admitted to participating adult and pediatric critical care units in France, using current definitions and classifications of cardiogenic shock. The study aims to improve patient characterization and risk stratification and support the development of future interventional studies. 1,000 patients will be enrolled over 12 months, with follow-up at 30 days, 1 year, and through linkage with the French National Health Data System (SNDS) at 1 and 5 years.
