Clinical Effects of Intra-aortic Balloon Support in Early Acute Coronary Syndrome and Non-Acute Coronary Syndrome Related Cardiogenic Shock

Patients who are randomized to the IABP-arm will be supported with IABP according to local, clinical guidelines (including algorithms for anticoagulation, verification of correct positioning and weaning strategies). The IABP console and disposables should be used according to the instructions for use, including the use of an appropriate-sized IABP balloon alligned with patient length and height.
