Abstract
This case report details the development of cardiogenic shock after craniotomy in a patient sedated with a propofol infusion. The patient survived with the assistance of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. A literature review summarizes the syndrome of cardiogenic shock associated with prolonged propofol infusion. This is the first report of survival in this syndrome resuiting from mechanical circulatory support.
