label_lc: cardiogenic shock stage c related to covid-19
description: Clinical signs of cardiogenic shock with clinical evidence of hypotension and hypoperfusion (cold and wet) on physical examination that requires intervention (inotrope, pressor or mechanical support, including extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)) beyond volume resuscitation to restore normal perfusion in a patient with probable or confirmed acute COVID-19.  Invasive hemodynamics may demonstrate the classic depressed cardiac index associated with cardiogenic shock.
