Shock is a critical condition brought on by the sudden drop in blood flow through the body. Shock may result from trauma, heatstroke, blood loss, an allergic reaction, severe infection, poisoning, severe burns or other causes. When a person is in shock, his or her organs aren't getting enough blood or oxygen.
2. I would like to express my special thanks of gratitude
to my teacher DR. VIR VIKRAM (HOD pharmacology)
as well as DR. LOVEPREET SINGH (Assistant professor )
who gave me golden opportunity to do this
wonderful project on the topic TREATMENT OF SHOCK
which also helped me in doing a lot of research and I
learnt so much about the topic .
I am really thankful to them .
Secondly , I would also like to thank my friends who
helped me a lot in finishing this project within limited
time.
It helped me increase my knowledge and my skills .
THANKS AGAIN TO ALL WHO SUPPORTED
3. Shock occurs when there is a severe
decrease in tissue perfusion. The important
manifestations of shock are:
1.Hypotension
2.Tachycardia
3.Thready pulse
4.Pale
5.Cold and clammy skin
6.Hypoventilation
7.Oliguria
8.Clouding of consciousness ,etc.
7. In Hypovalaemic shock ,there is a
decrease in circulating blood volume.
Cardiogenic shock is due to pump
failure.
In septic,anaphylactic and neurogenic
shock , there is a decrease in systemic
vascular resistance leading to low output
and tissue underperfusion.
.
8. General measures:
1.Maintain airway and breathing. Oxygen inhalation
– if necessary,artificial ventilation.
2.Establish i.v.line,maintain fluid and electrolyte
balance.
3.Collect blood sample for blood count , culture
, electrolytes,glucose,blood gas analysis,grouping
and cross-matching
4.Monitor heart rate,BP,urine output,level of
consciousness ,respiration,central venous pressure,etc
5.Intrsvenous sodium bicarbonate to correct acidosis
,if any.
~further treatment depends upon the type of shock

12. Achieve haemostasis in case of haemorrhagic
shock.
Intravenous fluids are used to restore the loss for
example,Dextrose,normal saline ,ringer
lactase,dextran.
Blood transfusion in case of acute
haemorrhage.
In patients with hypovalemic shock due to fluid
losses – 2 litres of isotonic crystalloid solution is
infused rapidly as an attempt to quickly restore
tissue perfusion.
.
13. CRYSTALLOID FLUIDS- they are the subset of
intravenous solutions that are frequently
used in clinical setting , they are the FIRST
CHOICE FOR FLUID RESUSCITION IN THE
PRESENCE OF HYPOVALEMIA ,
HEMORRHAGE,SEPSIS AND DEHYDRATION.
MEDICINES-Dopamine, Dobutamine,
Epinephrine, and Norepinephrine may be
needed to increase the blood pressure and
the amount of blood pumped out of the
heart i.e, the cardiac output
14.

17. A widespread infection causing organ
failure and dangerously low blood
pressure.
Septic shock is a life threatening
condition caused by severe localised or
system-wide infection that requires
immediate medical attention.
Intravenous fluids are given with
complete monitoring .
18. Antibiotics:Emperical therapy should be
started early to treat infection.
Activated protein C is administered by i.v
route
Activated protein C has antithrombic ,
fibrinolytic,and anti-inflammatory
activities. It is given to patients with
severe sepsis and organ failure.
.
19. Glucocoticoids: Their role is controversial . i.v
hydrocortisone may be helpful in patients with
septic shockin adrenal insufficiency.
Vasopressors: like phenylepherine and
noradrenaline are used, they are administered
as i.v infusion.
MEDICINES- Vasoconstrictors are used for
narrowing the blood vessels
-Penicillin is used to kill specific bacterias .
-Antibiotics are given to stop the growth or kill
the bacterias .eg, metronidazole, furazolidone,
deptomycin,tigecycline,erythromycin

23. MACHANISM OF ACTION-
Exposure to certain drugs
(penicillin,aspirin ,lignocaine.)
Production of IgG antibodies-fix to
mast cell
On re-exposure to the same drug
24. Ag-Ab reaction occurs on the mast
cell surface
Mediators are released
(Histamine,5-HT,PGs,LTs,PAF)
Hypotension , bronchospasm ,
angioedema , urticaria, rhinitis , and
anaphylactic shock.
25. TREATMENT-Inj.adrenaline (1:1000) 0.3-0.5 ml
intramuscularly.
2.Inj.hydrocortisone 100-200mg intravenously.
3.Inj.pheniramine 45mg
intramuscularly/intravenously.
4.intravenous fluids are given.
ADRENALINE IS A LIFE SAVING DRUG AS IT
RAPIDLY REVERSES ALL THE SEVERE ALLERGIC
REACTIONS.

29. Life threatening condition in which the heart
suddenly cannot pump enough blood to meet
the body`s needs.
Condition is caused by a severe heart attack
,but not everyone who has heart attack has
cardiogenic shock. It is a rare condition.
Although the chances of survival have
improved over time, 50% to 75% of people
don’t survive it .
Without and even with the treatment the
condition can be fatal.
PEOPLE WHO ARE AT THE RISK :
30. AGE: people who are 75 or older.
RACE OR ETHNICITY: Asian Americans
and Pacific Islanders have a higher risk of
cardiogenic shock than other racial or
ethnic groups.
Pulmonary thromboembolism is
common in the hypercoagulability
state provoked by COVID-19 and can
lead to cardiogenic shock with high
mortality.
31. 1.Vasopressors:Dopamine,dobutamine,and
noradrenaline can be used used as i.v infusion.
2.Blood thining agents:Aspirin
3.Reperfusion by PCI/coronary artery
bypass/thrombolytics.
4.Pain and anxiety are relieved by i.v
morphine.
5.Treat arrhythmias with drugs or pacing.
6.Intravenous heparin.
7.The goal of cardiogenic shock treatment is to
quickly restore blood pressure and heart
function.

35. it is a condition in which you have trouble keeping
your heart rate,blood pressure and temperature
stable because of damage to your nervous system
after a spinal cord injury. Like other types of shock ,
this is a serious condition that can be fatal because
your blood flow is too low.
- Car accidents that can cause central nervous
system damage or spinal cord injury.
-Sport injuries causing trauma to spine,gunshot
wounds to the spine.
-medications that affect the autonomic nervous
system , which regulates breathing and other
automatic bodily functions.
36. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS –
Low blood pressure –hypotension.
Slow heart rhythm-bradyarrhythmia.
Flushed,warm skin that gets cold clammy later.
Lips and fingernails that looks blue.
Lack of full consciousness.
TREATMENT- 1.Establish airway.
2.Oxygen to be administered.
3.Fluid resuscition,blood transfusion,use of
vasopressors
4.Immobility of neck and body(if there is spinal injury).
