How does a doctor diagnose

  • Physical examination
  • Electrocardiogram (ECG)
  • Echocardiogram (ECHO)
  • Chest X-ray
  • Blood tests
  • Cardiac catheterization
  • Cardiac MRI
  • Cardiac CT scan

Treatment and Medical Assistance

Main goal of the treatment: To restore adequate tissue perfusion and oxygen delivery.
  • Administer fluids and vasopressors to maintain blood pressure and improve cardiac output.
  • Administer inotropic agents to improve cardiac contractility.
  • Administer oxygen to maintain adequate oxygen delivery.
  • Administer diuretics to reduce preload.
  • Monitor cardiac output and oxygen delivery.
  • Monitor electrolytes and acid-base balance.
  • Provide supportive care such as nutrition, rest, and stress reduction.
  • Provide mechanical ventilation if needed.
  • Provide cardiac catheterization if needed.
  • Provide extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) if needed.
