Objectives
At the end of the Chapter, the student must be able to:
1. define circulatory shock.
2. discuss the three types of shock in detail
3. recognize the reflex compensatory mechanisms
activated during circulatory shock
4. explain the mechanisms behind the compensations
done by the body to restore normal blood pressure
5. cite the various systemic effects of circulatory shock
6. discuss in detail the systemic effects of shock in acute
renal failure.
Objectives
7. compare and contrast the three main stages of
circulatory shock progression
8. discuss the therapy of shock
o Circulatory shock is a condition in which the
cardiovascular system fails to perfuse tissues
adequately.
Cardiac output
Blood volume (plasma volume)
Peripheral vascular resistance
Types of Shock
• Cardiogenic Shock
– PUMP problem
• Hypovolemic Shock
– VOLUME problem
o ETIOLOGY:
Internal fluid/blood loss
External fluid/blood loss
D. Kidneys: RAAS
A. Baroreceptors
• These are pressure-sensitive receptors located
in the:
a. aortic arch
b. carotid sinus
Extreme decrease in BP
BP
Blood Hydrostatic Shift of fluid from tissue to
pressure capillaries
Less tissue fluid formed
Increase in plasma volume
BHP falls less rapidly and systemic arterial
pressure is supported.
BP
Ponder Point
Progressive Shock
3. Irreversible Shock
o Death occur due to severe organ damage
even if aggressive therapy restores blood
pressure.
• Drug therapy:
– Neurogenic or Vascular give vasoconstrictors
– Cardiogenic Improve CO, reduce afterload
Eg. Isoproterenol
