Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to examine the clinical treatment of patients diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy complicated by cardiogenic shock.
Detailed Description: This single-site, virtual, longitudinal, observational study will investigate two cohorts (study groups) by enrolling a total of ten participants, five in each cohort. The two cohorts include individuals who received mechanical circulatory support (specifically the IMPELLA® device) compared to individuals who did not receive mechanical circulatory support for treatment of their PPCM complicated by cardiogenic shock index event. The duration of enrollment for each participant is about 5 months. It is anticipated that the trial will be complete in 12 months. Participant engagement to the study will be self-initiated. Under the guidance and support of Medical College of Wisconsin research coordinator, participants will directly access the study REDCapTM database for enrollment and follow-up data entry for this study. The research coordinator will obtain and abstract participant medical records documenting the event.
