The goal of this multicenter, randomized trial is to compare early early left ventricular unloading by Intra-aortic Balloon Pump (IABP) versus conventional approach in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) undergoing venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). The main question it aims to answer is : • If left ventricular unloading by IABP as compared with the conventional approach will improve the outcomes in patients undergoing VA-ECMO.
The role of IABP combined with VA-ECMO in patients with CS remains unclear. Therefore, investigators will conduct a prospective randomized clinical trial to explore the effect of early IABP use for LV unloading after VA-ECMO on outcomes in patients with CS. Investigators will randomly assign 358 patients receiving peripheral VA-ECMO to the ECMO+IABP group (n=179) or the ECMO group (n=179). The primary end point was the 30-day mortality.

Relative decrease in vasoactive inotropic score(VIS) at 12 and 24 hours
Vasoactive inotropic score (VIS), in µg/kg/min, was calculated as follows: dopamine + dobutamine + 100 epinephrine + 100 norepinephrine + 15×milrinone. Higher VIS predict worse outome.
