Talk:Cardiogenic shock

message: My mother passed recently from cardiogenic shock.  I'm just curious to know if cardiogenic shock is severly painfull?
:It depends, but the symptoms of cardiogenic shock are severe heart failure and low blood pressure. This causes shortness of breath which may be severe, but the symptoms are not typically painful. JFW | T@lk 18:22, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

message: After including some info from cardiac arrest I do feel that listing all causes of hypixemia (indirect?) could be taken out. It is a bit over the top. Nomen Nescio 23:50, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Superfluous?

message: We seem to have cleared up the confusion between the two terms now on the Cardiac arrest page, but great confusion still seems to exist here. Propose a major re-write to remove this and to clear up the rest of the page; or merge with Shock - the article as it stands is really a mess.--John24601 09:17, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You could suggest what part you think needs improving and why it is "really a mess." Merging however is a premature idea. Nomen Nescio 16:32, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cardiac Arrest & Cardiogenic Shock 

message: While dated, the shock trial  should be mentioned, since it's still the basis for who undergoes revascularization for shock and what medical therapy of shock entails.
I'll keep this article on my radar to work on after myocardial infarction. Ksheka 03:11, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Anesthesiastudent2024 has a fantastic start to editing the draft. The user outlined the changes with the following: deleting dobutamine mention due to redundancy, clean up pharmacotherapy section, and section as well as augment the treatment section.
First and foremost, the three proposed major changes were completed. Regarding the first change, I agree that deleting this helped with the redundancy. This change was made in the sandbox draft I am reviewing and think it reflects things in a better way.
Secondly, the pharmacotherapy section was cleaned up and became much easier to read. More plain language was used and the logic and content was easier to follow.
Thirdly, the breakdown of treatment was nice. The subsections are logical into the following categories: medication, pump, LVAD, and VA-ECMO. I wish I had this source when studying cardiogenic shock!
I personally think the lead paragraphs of cardiogenic shock are a bit all over the place and work could be done there to approach the issue from a physiology point of view. If I was a non-medical viewer, I would think "what the heck is shock." May be helpful to approach the issue very broadly and zero in logically.
With the proposed change above to lead paragraph and the newly drafted changes by anesthesia student on treatment subtypes, there is a clear structure to the page. With that, I believe there is nicely balanced coverage. With cardiogenic shock, treatment is very important and this section has been expounded upon very well. The content is neutral and the sources are reliable.
The most important thing that could be done with the article is to add more citations. Cardiogenic shock has many sources in the literature, and adding more for people to follow along with the augmented treatment sections would drastically improve the article.
I like the flow of the article and will take this style in mind when I continue to edit my own.
