SHOCK

Azza Waheed Khalaf ID:1308

Shock is a manifestation of circulatory failure that threats lives. Cellular and tissue hypoxia are results of
circulatory shock which lead to cellular death and dysfunction of very important and vital organs. Effects of shock
are reversible in early stages. Any delay in diagnosis and treatment can lead to irreversible changes that threat
lives including multiorgan failure and death.

Types of shock:
• Distributive shock.Distributive shock.
• Hypovolemic shock.
• Cardiogenic shock.
• Obstructive shock.
1)Distributed shock:

Characterized by peripheral vasodilatation. It is the most common type of shock.

Types of distributive shock:
• *Septic Shock.
• *Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome.
• *Anaphylactic Shock.
• *Neurogenic Shock.
• *Endocrine Shock.
2)Hypovolemic Shock:
Characterized by decreased intravascular volume and
increased systemic venous assistance. In the later stages
of shock cardiac output decreased anvd manifest as
hypotension due to progressive volume depletion.
Following Distributive Shock it is the second common
type of shock.
Types of Hypovolemic Shock:

• *Hemorrhagic Hypovolemic Shock.
• *Non-hemorrhagic Hypovolemic Shock.
Management of Cardiogenic Shock

3)Cardiogenic Shock:
Characterized due to intracardiac causes that lead to decreasing cardiac output and systemic
hypoperfusion. It is third common type of shock.
4)Obstructive Shock: Characterized mostly due to extracardiac causes that lead to decreasing in the left
ventricular cardiac output.
