Participants | 360 people with acute myocardial infarction cardiogenic shock undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention for STEMI. |
Interventions | Percutaneous Impella CP 3.8L with the device implanted before revascularisation |
Outcomes | Primary outcomes
Secondary outcomes

Starting date | December 2012 |

Notes | The DanGer trial aims to be the first adequately powered randomised trial to address whether mechanical circulatory left ventricular support with Impella CP can improve survival in acute myocardial infarction cardiogenic shock. The baseline characteristics of the first 100 randomised participants were published in the American Heart Journal (DanGer Shock 2019), the participants were in profound cardiogenic shock, and people with out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrests were excluded. Originally registered as the Danish Cardiogenic shock trial and the ALLOASSIST trial; due to slow recruitment, the 2 trials have been joined. |
