SSM Health Medical Minute: Cardiogenic shock requires advanced care for diseases of the heart and lu
SUMMARY: Cardiogenic shock is a severe and potentially fatal condition where the heart can’t pump enough blood to meet the body’s needs, leading to dangerously low blood pressure. Dr. Christopher Lawrence, a cardiac surgeon at SSM Health, notes that affected patients often have significantly reduced heart function, with some pumping out only 20-30% of the blood volume. Technological advances like the Impella pump and ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) have improved outcomes by providing crucial support during high-risk surgeries and recovery. Dr. Lawrence stresses the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in treatment. Cardiogenic shock can affect individuals of all ages, with common risk factors including high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and genetics.

St. Louis forecast: Warm and breezy Sunday
SUMMARY: Today in St. Louis, expect sunny skies with minimal clouds and temperatures around 52°F, warming up to 65°F with a breezy day. Overnight, light showers are expected around 9-10 p.m., clearing by Monday morning. The weather will turn cooler midweek, with temperatures falling to 45°F on Wednesday, followed by Thanksgiving showers, which will end by midday. Thursday’s high will be 41°F, and Friday will bring chilly conditions. A hard freeze is expected on Thursday and Friday, with temperatures in the mid-20s. Overall, the week ahead will be colder, signaling the arrival of winter.
The warming trend continues for Sunday and even parts of Monday as well. The warm up comes at a small cost, it will be windy. Winds will gust out of the south up to 30 mph at times today.
Light showers will track through overnight. Showers will be out of the way in time for the Monday morning commute.
Tuesday looks dry but mostly cloudy. Our next system that arrives by the middle of next week looks responsible for rain and snow in the Midwest. Right now, we look to be on the rainy side of this. We will monitor this as it gets closer, but right now, the air doesn’t seem cold enough to support snow locally. While we may see a few flakes of snow mix in at some point, this looks to be more of a regional travel issue.

Lettuce tests negative in St. Louis County E. coli outbreak
SUMMARY: In St. Louis County, over 100 people have fallen ill due to an E. coli outbreak linked to salads served at five events catered by Andres Catering. Although lettuce samples tested negative for the bacteria, health officials caution that this does not exclude Andres as a potential source, as E. coli can exist in isolated pockets. The outbreak has resulted in two serious illnesses, and Andres’s owner claims their business has been wrongly accused, asserting that people who did not eat their food also contracted E. coli. Legal representation for affected individuals indicates lawsuits against Andres are forthcoming.
St. Louis County health officials have reported over 100 people sickened in an ongoing E. Coli outbreak potentially connected to salads served at several events, despite a recent negative test result for lettuce samples.
