Rehabilitation for patients recovering from cardiogenic shock

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to assess the outcomes of cardiac rehabilitation in patients who have been acutely managed for cardiogenic shock. Utilizing the Altshock registry, the largest multicenter registry for cardiogenic shock in Italy, the study will evaluate post-acute care programs, focusing on functional recovery, quality of life, and economic efficiency. It will include a cohort of approximately 2000 patients, analyzing survival rates and recovery metrics over 6 months and 1 year post-ICU discharge. The study employs a mixed-method approach to validate an innovative care model compared to traditional pathways.
