Brief summary (registry, in English)

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate whether timely and aggressive temporary Mechanical Circulatory Support (tMCS) through the Impella 5.5® in patients with acute decompensated heart failure complicated by cardiogenic shock (ADHF-CS) has the potential to reduce the HF-CS related clinical events compared to the current standard of care.
