What is Shock? Shock is defined as a condition in which systemic Blood Pressure is inadequate to deliver oxygen and nutrient to support vital organs and cellular function.
What are the Types of Shock? Hypovolemic Shock Cardiogenic shock Distributive shock Septic shock Anaphylactic shock Neurogenic Shock
What are the stages of Shock? Initial stage Compensatory stage Progressive stage Refractory stage
Pathophysiology Cardiac Output Tissue perfusion HR and contractility, arterial & venous vasoconstriction, shunting of blood to the vital organs 1. Initial Stage 2. Compensatory Stage a. Neural response
Activation of the Renin response Production of Angiotensin II Vasoconstriction & release of aldosterone & ADH release Sodium & water release b. Hormonal response
ii. Stimulation of anterior pituitary Secretes ACTH Stimulates adrenal cortex Release of glucocorticoids Blood glucose levels
iii. Stimulation of adrenal medulla Release of epinephrine & nor-epinephrine Failure to meet the tissue metabolic needs Activation of anaerobic metabolism 3. Progressive stage
Lactic acedemia Further decreased tissue perfusion Irreversible damage to cells Failure of Na ++ -K + Pump Mitochondria swells up and ruptures Death of cell
Clinical consequences MODS Irreversible shock Death 4. Refractory stage
What are the Consequences of shock? Cardiovascular Ventricular filure Microvascular thrombosis Neurologic SNS dysfunction Cardiac and respiratory depression Thermoregulatory failure Coma
