The 2025 SCAI SHOCK: Home of the Shock Team conference, scheduled for September 18–20, 2025, in Tampa, Florida, is a step-by-step guide to building and maintaining a contemporary cardiogenic shock program. Led by a multidisciplinary team of seasoned leaders, the meeting explores the individual building blocks of a successful shock program, equipping attendees with a comprehensive understanding of shock management, from initial recognition and ICU problem-solving to advanced treatment strategies and post-danger care.

Learning Objectives

This year’s meeting will equip attendees to:

• Integrate scientific updates and the latest evidence-based best practices for treating cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest.

• Implement optimal shock management strategies by utilizing EMS, transportation, and the ED in early recognition and nuanced patient care.

• Apply Shock ICU essentials, including hemodynamic monitoring, vasoactive medications, and determining the role of dedicated versus mixed ICUs.

• Optimize antiplatelet therapy and implement optimal pharmacodynamic strategies for high-risk patients.

• Navigate complexities in the cath lab by identifying unseen threats, understanding right heart hemodynamics, and practicing effective communication.

• Optimize team setup, tracking quality improvement metrics, and utilizing tools to bridge the gap between shock clinicians and hospital administration (the C-suite).

• Perform Cardiac ICU problem-solving, including interpreting cardiac indices, troubleshooting MCS devices, and managing weaning strategies.

• Manage post-danger care by deliberating the harms and benefits of inotropes, utilizing IABP in the community, and expanding perspectives to include HF-shock.

• Navigate the complexities of resource allocation and coordination for High-risk PCI.

• Explore future directions in shock management, including novel support devices, leveraging machine learning for risk stratification, and the role of AI in decision-making.

Target Audience

Translating the ideal to the real world will be intensivists (medical/cardiac), cardiologists (interventional, heart failure, critical care), cardiac surgeons, advanced practice providers (APPs), and hospital administrators representing the diversity of clinical practice settings to help you apply what you learn in:

• Community and academic hospitals

• Urban and rural locations

• Surgical and non-surgical settings

• Treating patients with and without advanced heart failure

Suitable for representatives of hospitals looking to improve or formalize their shock program, including but not limited to cardiologists, intensivists, surgeons, nurses, APPs, and hospital administrators within the disciplines of critical care, cardiothoracic surgery, heart failure, interventional cardiology, and CV service line leadership.

Best for Interventional Cardiologists, Critical Care Cardiologists, Cardiac Surgeons, Intensivists, and Advanced Practice Providers (APPs).
