The Role of Swan-Ganz Catheter in Hemodynamic Resuscitation for Patients With Cardiogenic Shock

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This clinical trial examines whether the use of the Swan-Ganz catheter, a specialized pulmonary artery catheter, can improve hemodynamic management and treatment outcomes in patients experiencing cardiogenic shock due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Cardiogenic shock is a critical condition marked by the heart's inability to supply adequate blood to the organs, often resulting from a severe heart attack. Despite advancements in care, the condition remains associated with high mortality. Effective monitoring of cardiovascular status is crucial in guiding timely and tailored treatment decisions. Participants in this study will undergo advanced hemodynamic monitoring using the Swan-Ganz catheter, which provides continuous data on cardiac output and other key parameters. This information enables physicians to better assess circulatory function and adjust therapies accordingly. The research will evaluate clinical characteristics, response to treatment, and 30-day outcomes in patients managed with this technique. The study also aims to identify factors associated with successful hemodynamic stabilization and potential complications related to catheter use. A total of 108 adult patients meeting specific eligibility criteria will be enrolled at Bach Mai Hospital over 3 years. Participation is voluntary, and all patients will continue to receive standard-of-care treatment. All personal and medical data will be handled with strict confidentiality.
