Table 1. Total number of cases of myocardial infarction, other cardiovascular causes of cardiogenic shock and cases of cardiogenic shock, and implied costs of treatments. Other cardiogenic shock causes include decompensated heart failure and myocarditis. Number of cardiogenic shock cases have been estimated accounting for an 8% incidence over myocardial infarction cases plus 5% incidence over other cardiogenic shock cases.
