The acute phase of experimental cardiogenic shock is counteracted by microcirculatory and mitochondrial adaptations.

The mechanisms contributing to multiorgan dysfunction during cardiogenic shock are poorly understood. Our goal was to characterize the microcirculatory and mitochondrial responses following ≥ 10 hours of severe left ventricular failure and cardiogenic shock. We employed a closed-chest porcine model...
