Using dP/dt Contour Analysis to Wean IABP/Inotropic Support in a Cardiogenic Shock Patient.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgrounddP/dt, the rate of ventricular pressure rise during systole, reflects myocardial contractility and is traditionally measured invasively or by echocardiography. New technologies derive it from real-time peripheral arterial waveforms, offering a minimally invasive surrogate, though intensive care unit use remains limited because of preload/afterload sensitivity and minimal investigative studies. SUMMARY: We report, to our knowledge, the first clinical case using continuous arterial dP/dt pressure waveform analysis (PWA) in the intensive care unit to guide real-time management in cardiovascular (CV) assessment of a patient with Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) stage E cardiogenic shock. DISCUSSION: As illustrated in our patient, dP/dt PWA has potential as an additional CV parameter to support inotrope and device weaning decisions. NOVELTY OF SUBMISSION: Radial PWA-derived dP/dt offers an added means to monitor CV performance, with evolving AI-driven optimization enhancing its reliability for estimating myocardial contractility. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: dP/dt-radial PWA contour analysis has viable potential in dynamic CV assessment of myocardial recovery (alongside other established parameters) in critical care settings.
