Crossing the chasm: caution for use of angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibition in patients with cardiogenic shock- a case report.

PARADIGM-HF found that the introduction of an ARNI in patients with ambulatory symptomatic HFrEF reduces the risk of death and heart failure hospitalization. Most recently, PIONEER-HF showed that ARNI reduced N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels at 4 and 8 weeks, without significantly different rates of medication-related adverse effects. However, thus far, no clinical trials have examined the role of ARNI in CS. Our case report highlights the risk of vasoplegic shock caused by initiation of ARNI in patients hospitalized with CS especially in whom renal and hepatic impairment is present.
