Introduction Shock is a state of extremely impaired circulation that
reduces the flow of blood and oxygen to body cells.Shock is a life-threatening condition that occurs when the body is not
getting enough blood flow as a result of sever hypotension. Shock requires IMMEDIATE medical treatment. If not properly managed the tissue damage becomes irreversible and finally leads to multi-organ
failure. • Types of Shock
• Hemorrhagic (hypovolemic) Shock
• Non-hemorrhagic Shock
– Cardiogenic Shock
– Neurogenic Shock
– Anaphylactic Shock/Vasogenic Shock
– Psychogenic Shock
– Septic or toxic
– Metabolic shock

Common causes of Shock
• Heart attack
• Severe or sudden blood loss
• Large drop in body fluids like in burns.
• Major infections
• Long exposure to extreme heat or cold

STAGES OF SHOCKCompensated ShockBody works to overcome developing hypotension and
hypoperfusion.
Uncompensated ShockDefense mechanisms are unable to compensate for the systemic
decline caused by poor circulation
Irreversible
The body is unable to overcome the effects of anaerobic metabolism and the death of vital organs

Hemorrhagic Hypovolemic Shock
• A sudden decrease in the volume of blood, resulting in decreased in blood return.
• Most common cause is hemorrhage :– Stab wounds– Gunshot wounds– Motor vehicle accidents– Dehydration (excessive vomiting and diarrhea)– Burns.

Treatment forHypovolemic Shock
• Position casualty/ elevate legs (trendelenburg’s position)
• Keep patient at normal temperature– Prevent hypothermia – Minimize effect of shock
• Fluid therapy
• Drug therapy
• On-going assessment - every 10-15 minutes

Non-Hemorrhagic Shock
• Cardiogenic Shock

10
Cardiogenic Shock
• Decrease in contractions/contractile ability of the myocardium. The most common cause is myocardial infarction
• Heart fails to circulate blood efficiently
• Reduction in cardiac output results in:– Decreased circulating blood supply– Decreased oxygen delivery

Treatment for Cardiogenic Shock
• Place the patient in a comfortable position
• Oxygen therapy
• Assist ventilation

Neurogenic Shock
• The failure of nervous system to control the diameter of blood vessels leading to decreased arterial resistance and Peripheral vasodilatation .
• Causes:– Nerve paralysis (spinal cord or brain injuries).– Severe blows to the abdomen.– Hot bath or hot vapor bath• Spinal cord injury• Certain drugs

Treatment for Neurogenic Shock
• Keep patient at normal temperature
• Secure airway/ Assist ventilation
• Administer oxygen
• Baseline vital signs
• Level of consciousness
• Position casualty

Anaphylactic Shock/Vasogenic Shock
• An extreme and generalized allergic antigen-antibody reaction, that may bring on vascular collapse. in which widespread histamine release causes swelling, bronchioles constriction, heart and/or failure.
It results from exposure to:– Sensitive drugs or other substances (serum, vaccines enzymes,
hormones, penicillin and other antibiotics, local anesthestetics, salicylates).
– Diagnostic chemicals (radiographic contrast dye).– Food (legumes, nuts, berries, seafood, eggs).– Insect venom (honeybees, mosquitoes, certain spiders.

15
Anaphylactic Shock/Vasogenic Shock
- Onset within 30 minutes of exposure leading to:
- Diffuse vasodilatation
- Increase size of vascular bed
- Blood is trapped in small vessels and viscera
- Temporary loss in total circulatory volume
![Page 16: Shock. 2 Introduction Shock is a state of extremely impaired circulation that reduces the flow of blood and oxygen to body cells. Shock is a life-threatening](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062802/56649e955503460f94b99cec/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Treatment for Anaphylactic Shock
• Secure airway • Terminate exposure to causative agent• First-line therapies, during acute stage
– Epinephrine– IV fluids– Oxygen
• Second-line therapies– Antihistamines– Corticosteroids
• Evacuate
![Page 17: Shock. 2 Introduction Shock is a state of extremely impaired circulation that reduces the flow of blood and oxygen to body cells. Shock is a life-threatening](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062802/56649e955503460f94b99cec/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Psychogenic Shock
- A sudden dilation of the blood vessels takes place in response to an emotional or traumatic situation causing the patient to faint.
- Stimulation of the vagus nerve causes the heart to slow down (bradycardia). When the bradycardia is severe enough, insufficient blood flow to the brain results and the patient loses consciousness (faints).
Conditions causing psychogenic shock include:– Severely scared.– Severe exhaustion.– Bad news (death or fail in exam)

18
Treatment for Psychogenic Shock
•Determine duration of unconsciousness
•Record initial vital signs and mental status
•If patient is confused or slow to regain consciousness, suspect head injury
![Page 19: Shock. 2 Introduction Shock is a state of extremely impaired circulation that reduces the flow of blood and oxygen to body cells. Shock is a life-threatening](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062802/56649e955503460f94b99cec/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Septic or Toxic Shock
• It is a condition that shows vascular dilatation due to a major infection resulting into a damage to the blood vessels walls which is causing loss of their ability to constrict.
• Diseases and conditions that predispose a patient to septic shock include:– Liver disease– Immune suppression (AIDS, drug therapy for cancer)

Metabolic shock
Change in body chemistry, including:• Salt and acid-base balance. • Failure of the adrenaline, thyroid and
pituitary glands• Diabetes mellitus

Positioning Patients on a Long Backboard
• Three or more rescuers needed• Position long backboard beside patient• One rescuer maintains head in line while other
rescuers take position• On cue from rescuer at patient’s head, other
rescuers roll patient toward them as a unit

Positioning Patients on a Long Backboard Continued
• Slide backboard next to patient• On cue from rescuer at head, other rescuers
roll patient as a unit• Patient is secured to backboard using straps
