|---|---|
| cardiogenic plate | The thickened layer of splanchnic mesoderm from which the cardiopericardial primordia of very young embryos are derived. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cardiogenic shock | A form of shock (inadequate delivery of oxygen to the tissues) that occurs secondary to the weakened pumping function of the heart. This condition may be precipitated by myocardial infarction or cardiomyopathy. Treatment includes fluid restriction, diuretics, vasopressors (dopamine) to support the blood pressure and the use of intravenous medications (dobutamine) which stimulate the heart to contract more forcefully. (27 Sep 1997) |
| shock, cardiogenic | Shock caused by heart failure. The heart fails to pump blood effectively. For example, a heart attack (a myocardial infarction) can cause an abnormal ineffectual heart beat (an arhythmia) with very slow, rapid, or irregular contractions of the heart, impairing the heart's ability to pump blood, lowering the volume of blood going to vital organs. Cardiogenic shock can also be due to drugs that reduce heart function or an abnormally low level oxygen in the blood (hypoxaemia) caused, for instance, by lung disease. Whatever be the cause, blood vessels constrict and adrenalin-like substances are secreted into the bloodstream, increasing the heart rate. Treatment of cardiogenic shock is aimed at improving the heart's function. Shock after a heat attack is extremely serious. The mortality rate is over 80%. (12 Dec 1998) |
