Brief summary
Investigation of the potential prognostic role of non-invasive myocardial work in patients receiving veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy.
Detailed description
The study aims to examine the prognostic role of non-invasive myocardial work in veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy patients. Subjects with cardiogenic shock regardless of etiology will be enrolled 48-72 hours after the initiation of mechanical circulatory support. It is hypothesized that non-invasive myocardial work may be an independent prognosticator of the outcome.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* 18 years or older age * Severe cardiogenic shock requiring the initiation of VA-ECMO therapy * Stabile hemodynamic state and oxigenation with VA-ECMO and vasoactive support * Informed written consent (due to the nature of the study, from a legally eligible relative of the patient)
Exclusion criteria
* Younger than 18 years of age * Unstable hemodynamic state or suboptimal oxigenation despite established VA-ECMO and vasoactive support * Severe neurological damage or confirmed brain death at the time of enrollment which squarely indicates therapy limitation and poor short-term outcome * Transesophageal echocardiography is contraindicated * Suboptimal echocardiographic window
