BEAT-SHOCK (Basel Evaluation of Acute Therapy in Cardiogenic SHOCK) Registry
This regulation defines the purpose, the operational processes, and the organization of the registry BEAT-SHOCK (Basel Evaluation of Acute Therapy in cardiogenic SHOCK). It describes the requirements for collecting, storing, processing, managing and sharing health-related registry data.
• Patients admitted with cardiogenic shock to the University hospital Basel (diagnosis at the time of admission) or development of cardiogenic shock during the hospital stay
• Age ≥18 years
• Provision of written ICF
• Clinical diagnosis of cardiogenic shock.
• impaired organ perfusion due to primary cardiac dysfunction,
• persistent systolic blood pressure (SBP) \<90 mmHg for ≥30 minutes, or the need for vasopressors, inotropes, or mechanical circulatory support (MCS) to maintain adequate perfusion and
• evidence of systemic hypoperfusion with arterial lactate ≥2 mmol/L or venous lactate ≥3 mmol/l and ≥1 of the following:
• Cold or clammy extremities
• Altered mental status
• Reduced urine output
• Signs of volume overload or congestion (on clinical exam, imaging, or invasive monitoring)
• Patients with normotensive cardiogenic shock (SBP ≥90 mmHg without vasopressors or MCS) may also be included if clear signs of hypoperfusion (arterial lactate ≥2 mmol/L or venous lactate ≥3 mmol/l) and cardiac dysfunction are present and alternative causes are excluded
