History
 term shock (Fr, choke) was first used by French
physician Le Pran in 1773 todescribe the clinical
characteristics of patients after severe gunshot
trauma.
Definitions:
 Shock is a state in which failure of the circulatory
system to maintain adequate cellular perfusion
results in wide spread reduction in delivery of
oxygen and other nutrients to tissues.
( OR )
 Shock is a syndrome of failure of heart to pump
blood in sufficient quantity or under sufficient
pressure to maintain pressure flow relationship
necessary for adequate tissue perfusion
( OR )
 Shock denotes circulatory failure leading to
inadequate vital organ perfusion ,oxygen delivery
and other tissues
Stages of Shock
Compensated
 15-25% of fluid loss from the vessels
 Signs are subtle
 Patient may show signs of an adrenaline rush
Decompensated
 25-35% of fluid loss from the vessels
 The body cells are profoundly hypoxic
 Classic signs of shock
Irreversible
 > 35% fluid loss from the vessels
 Body cells die
 All vital signs bottom out
Compensatory ( Reversible )
 SYMPATHOADRENAL STIMULATION
 PRE CAPILLARY SPINCTER CONSTRUCTION
 CAPPILARY HYDROSTATIC
PRESSURE.(Increase )
 FLUID MOVES INTO INTRAVASCULAR SPACE
IRREVERSIBLE
IF HYPOPERFUSION CONTINUES
HYPOXIA – ANAEROBIC METABOLISM
INCREASE IN LACTIC ACID + INCREASE [H+]
DECREASE IN CAP. HYDR. PRES
INCREASE IN POST CAP. SPHINCTER TONE
WEAKENING OF PRE CAP SPHINCTER TONE
FLUID MOVES INTO EXTRA VASCULAR SPACE
 Fluid loss into extra vascular space.
 Adhesion of activated leukocytes to endothelial
cells – increase in cap. Permeability
 obstruction to micro vessels
 Accumulation of micro thrombi because of
activation of coagulation system with fibrin
deposition.
Types of Shock
 Cardiogenic (intracardiac vs extracardiac)
 Hypovolemic
 Distributive
 sepsis****
 neurogenic (spinal shock)
 adrenal insufficiency
 anaphylaxis
Pathophysiology: Overview
 Tissue perfusion is determined by Mean Arterial
Pressure (MAP)
MAP = CO x SVR
Heart rate Stroke Volume
Cardiogenic Shock:
Pathophysiology
 Heart fails to pump blood out
MAP = CO x SVR
HR Stroke Volume
 as a consequence of cardiac pump failure, resulting in decreased
cardiac output (CO).
 Pump failure can occur both as a result of an abnormality of the
Heart rate or the Stroke volume
Cardiogenic Shock: Causes
↓MAP = ↓ CO (HR x Stroke Volume) x ↑SVR
 Decreased Contractility (Myocardial Infarction,
myocarditis, cardiomyopathy, Post resuscitation
syndrome following cardiac arrest)
 Mechanical Dysfunction – (Papillary muscle rupture
post-MI, Severe Aortic Stenosis, rupture of ventricular
aneurysms etc)
 Arrhythmia – (Heart block, ventricular tachycardia,
SVT, atrial fibrillation etc.)
 Cardiotoxicity (B blocker and Calcium Channel
Obstructive Shock:
Pathophysiology
 Heart pumps well, but the output is decreased
due to an obstruction (in or out of the heart)
MAP = CO x SVR
HR x Stroke volume
If the blood outflow from the heart is decreased
because there is decreased return to the heart (due
to an obstruction) or “obstructed” as the blood leaves
the heart the stroke volume diminishes, with the
overall effect of decreasing the cardiac output
Obstructive Shock: Causes
↓MAP = ↓ CO (HR x Stroke Volume) x ↑SVR
 Heart is working but there is a block to the
outflow
 Massive pulmonary embolism
 Aortic dissection
 Cardiac tamponade
 Tension pneumothorax
 Obstruction of venous return to heart
 Vena cava syndrome - eg. neoplasms, granulomatous
disease
 Sickle cell splenic sequestration
Hypovolemic Shock:
Pathophysiology
 Heart pumps well, but not enough blood volume
to pump
MAP = CO x SVR
HR x Stroke volume
 Hypovolemic shock is a consequence of
decreased preload due to intravascular volume
loss.
 -The decreased preload diminishes stroke
volume, resulting in decreased cardiac output
(CO).
Hypovolemic Shock: Causes
↓MAP = ↓ CO (HR x Stroke Volume) x ↑SVR
 Decreased Intravascular volume (Preload)
leads to Decreased Stroke Volume
 Hemorrhagic - trauma, GI bleed, AAA rupture,
ectopic pregnancy
 Hypovolemic - burns, GI losses, dehydration,
third spacing (e.g. pancreatitis, bowel
obstruction), Adesonian crisis, Diabetic
Ketoacidosis
Distributive Shock:
Pathophysiology
 Heart pumps well, but there is peripheral
vasodilation due to loss of vessel tone
MAP = CO x SVR
HR x Stroke volume
 Distributive (vasodilatory) shock is a consequence of
severely decreased SVR.
Distributive Shock: Causes
↓MAP = ↑CO (HR x SV) x ↓ SVR
 Loss of Vessel tone
 Inflammatory cascade
 Sepsis and Toxic Shock Syndrome
 Anaphylaxis
 Post resuscitation syndrome following cardiac arrest
 Decreased sympathetic nervous system function
 Neurogenic - C spine or upper thoracic cord injuries
 Toxins
 Due to cellular poisons -Carbon monoxide,
methemoglobinemia, cyanide
 Drug overdose (a1 antagonists)

• Do you remember how to
quickly estimate blood
pressure by pulse?
60
80
70
90
• If you palpate a pulse,
you know SBP is at
least this number
Goals of Treatment
• ABCDE
• Airway
• control work of Breathing
• optimize Circulation
• assure adequate oxygen Delivery
• achieve End points of resuscitation
Airway
• Determine need for intubation but
remember: intubation can worsen
hypotension
• Sedatives can lower blood pressure
• Positive pressure ventilation decreases
preload
• May need volume resuscitation
prior to intubation to avoid
hemodynamic collapse
Control Work of Breathing
• Respiratory muscles consume a significant
amount of oxygen
• Tachypnea can contribute to lactic acidosis
• Mechanical ventilation and sedation
decrease WOB and improves survival
Optimizing Circulation
• Isotonic crystalloids
• Titrated to:
• CVP 8-12 mm Hg
• Urine output 0.5 ml/kg/hr (30 ml/hr)
• Improving heart rate
• May require 4-6 L of fluids
• No outcome benefit from colloids
Maintaining Oxygen Delivery
• Decrease oxygen demands
• Provide analgesia and anxiolytics to relax
muscles and avoid shivering
• Maintain arterial oxygen
saturation/content
• Give supplemental oxygen
• Maintain Hemoglobin > 10 g/dL
• Serial lactate levels or central venous
End Points of Resuscitation
• Goal of resuscitation is to maximize
survival and minimize morbidity
• Use objective hemodynamic and
physiologic values to guide therapy
• Goal directed approach
• Urine output > 0.5 mL/kg/hr
• CVP 8-12 mmHg
• MAP 65 to 90 mmHg
• Central venous oxygen concentration > 70%
Persistent Hypotension
• Inadequate volume resuscitation
• Pneumothorax
• Cardiac tamponade
• Hidden bleeding
• Adrenal insufficiency
• Medication allergy
Management of hypovolemic
shock:
 AIM: To restore cardiac filling pressure promptly and
adequately without inducing pulmonary edema.
Measures:
 1. Arresting ongoing blood loss.
 2. Restoration of blood volume.
 3. Correction of metabolic acidosis
Arresting ongoing blood loss:
 External haemorrage by pressure elevation and tourniquet.
 Internal haemorrhage by immediate surgical exploration.
Restoration of circulating blood volume:
Start two large bore I.V. cannula,
 Debate still exists over the type, amount and rate of infusion
of fluids.
 Fluid challenge test is the guideline for rate of infusion.
End point of resuscitation should be based on factors
reflecting adequacy of perfusion
1. Establishing urine output > 0.5 ml/kg/Hr.
2. Reappearance of peripheral pulses.
3. Correction of hypothermia, with reduction of core to
peripheral temp gradient to< 10C.
4. Improvement of mental status.
5. Return of B.P. to normal
6. Capillary refill < 3 sec
7. Correction of metabolic acidosis (blood lactate
level <1.5 mmol/l) with normalization of pH.
Management of cardiogenic
shock:
 Three steps:
 1. Initial stabilization
 2. Evaluation of the patient
 3. Definitive therapy
 Initial stabilization:
 1. Establishment of ventilation and oxygenation to
maintain PaO2> 70 mm Hg.
 2. Restore MAP > 70 mm Hg with volume
correction and vasopressors.
 3. Treatment of pain, arrhythmias and acid base
abnormality.
 Evaluation of the patient:
 Brief history, physical examination and
investigations.
 ECG-look for ischemic changes, cardiac enzymes
 Cardiac filling pressure – CVP, PCWP, LVEDP
 Chest x-ray, ABG
 2D echo for ventricular function
 Arterial O2 saturation
 Starling function curve.
 Definitive therapy
 Goals of treatment
1. CI -4.5 l/min/ m2 (N – 3.0 – 3.4 l/min /m2).
2. DO2- 600 ml/min/ m2 (N – 480 – 600 ml/min
/m2)
3. VO2 – 140 – 180 ml/min /m2 (N – 130 – 160
ml/min/ m2)
Achieved by,
 1. Pharmacological support and / or
 2. Surgical intervention
 1) Pharmacological support:
 Aimed at – increase C.O., improving coronary blood flow and
decrease transudation of fluid into the lung.
 Done by – modifying preload, after load and by increase inotropic
function of the myocardium.
Reduction in preload (diuretics):
 Decrease volume where excusive preload exists.
 Over use may result in organ hypoperfusion and renal failure.
 Loop diuretics
Improving myocardial contractility (inotropes):
 Inotropes are indicated where preload is optimal but low cardiac
output and
 hypotension exists.
 Sympathomimetic amines are potent inotropes which act via a and b
adrenergic
 Epinephrine:
 Powerful cardiac stimulant
 Increase HR, shortens systole.
 Increase cardiac work and O2 consumption.
1-2 mcg / min - b stimulation
2-10 mcg/min – mixed a and b stimulation
10 mcg / min - a stimulation.
Dopamine: (3-4 di-hydroxy phenyl ethylamine)
1-5 mg/kg/min – dopaminergic receptors – renal and
mesenteric vasodilation.
5-10 mg/kg/min - b action, receptor positive inotropic and
positive chronotropic effects on heart.
10 mg/kg/min - a receptor– vasoconstriction.
 Dobutamine: synthetic sympathomimetic
amine
 Acts mainly on b1 receptor with little effects on b2
/ a
 Useful in cardiogenic shock due to MI with
tachycardia.
 Increase CO without increasing infarct size or
causing malignant arrhythmias.
 Dose – 5-20 mg/kg/min.
 Reduction in after load (vasodilators):
 Vasodilators decrease after load by decrease
SVR and decrease PVR which improves cardiac
output.
 Useful in patient with
 Normal / increase preload-PCWP > 15 mm Hg.
 Adequate perfusion pressure SBP > 110 mm Hg.
 High vascular resistance
 Low cardiac output
SNP:
 Both arteriolar and Venodilators
 Onset of action within 2 mins
 Rapidly metabolized to Thiocyanate and cyanide
 Dose 1-10 mg/kg/min (20-500 mg/min)
NTG:
 ·Venodilators, + coronary vasodilator treatment
myocardial ischemia
 Onset within sec
 ½ life – 4 mins
 Dose 1-10 mg/kg/min (10-400 mg/min)
 II. Surgical intervention:

Activated protein C
 Known inflammatory and procoagulant host
responses to infection.
 TNF-alpha, IL-1, IL-6, thrombin
 Diffuse endovascular injury, multiorgan dysfunction
and death.
 Activated Protein C
 anticoagulant, modulates the inflammatory response
 reduced levels of protein C found in majority of patients with
sepsis and are associated with increased risk of death.
STEROIDS
 IVcorticosteroids (hydrocortisone
200-300 mg/day,
 for 7 days in three or four divided
doses or by continuous infusion)
who, despite adequate fluid
replacement, require vasopressor
therapy to maintain adequate blood
pressure.
Blood Product Administration
 PRBC transfusion if Hb <7.0 g/dL ; target 7.0-
9.0 g/dL.
 Erythropoietin only accepted reasons for
administration of erythropoietin such as renal
failure induced anemia.
 No Routine use of fresh frozen plasma to
correct laboratory clotting abnormal
 Platelets administered <5,000/mm3 (5 x
109/L) regardless of apparent bleeding.
 Higher platelet counts (>50,000/mm3 [50 x
109/L])for surgery or invasive procedures
Management of anaphylactic
shock
 Generally a clinical diagnosis
a.The offending agent can often be difficult to
identify (eg. Latex, metabisulfites, food
allergy, etc) and sometimes drugs
b.Seurm tryptase may be useful in difficult
diagnostic cases.
Initial Therapy
1. Maintain Adequate Ventilation
a) Oxygen
b) Establish an airway if needed
2. Stop absorption
3. Epinephrine
a) This remains the most important pharmacological
management of anaphylaxis (J All Clin Innunol, 1994;
94:666-8)
b) 0.3 – 0.5 mg IV or SQ
a) Use 0.3 – 0.5 ml of 1:1,000 dilution SQ
b) Use 3 – 5 ml of 1:10,000 dilution IV
4. Inhaled beta-agonists
5. Establish Adequate Venous Access
Secondary Therapy
1. Antihistamines (H1 & H2 blockers)
a) 25-50mg hydroxyzine or diphenhydramine Q6 hours
b) Cimetidine 300mg every 8-12 hours
2. Corticosteroids (may shorten protracted
reactions but do not provide immediate benefit)
a) 250 mg hydrocortisone Q6 hours IV
3. Aminophylline (probably not as useful as
inhaled b-agonists)
a) Load with 6 mg/kg/hr IV
b) Maintain with 0.3 – 0.6 mg/kg/hr IV
4. Observation in the hospital for at least 24 hours
(for relapse)
5. Glucagon (1 mg IV) can be useful in patients
which anaphylactic shock on beta-blockers as
these patients may be resistent to epinephrine

    Goals of Treatment •ABCDE • Airway • control work of Breathing • optimize Circulation • assure adequate oxygen Delivery • achieve End points of resuscitation
  • 37.
    Airway • Determine needfor intubation but remember: intubation can worsen hypotension • Sedatives can lower blood pressure • Positive pressure ventilation decreases preload • May need volume resuscitation prior to intubation to avoid hemodynamic collapse
  • 38.
    Control Work ofBreathing • Respiratory muscles consume a significant amount of oxygen • Tachypnea can contribute to lactic acidosis • Mechanical ventilation and sedation decrease WOB and improves survival
  • 39.
    Optimizing Circulation • Isotoniccrystalloids • Titrated to: • CVP 8-12 mm Hg • Urine output 0.5 ml/kg/hr (30 ml/hr) • Improving heart rate • May require 4-6 L of fluids • No outcome benefit from colloids
  • 40.
    Maintaining Oxygen Delivery •Decrease oxygen demands • Provide analgesia and anxiolytics to relax muscles and avoid shivering • Maintain arterial oxygen saturation/content • Give supplemental oxygen • Maintain Hemoglobin > 10 g/dL • Serial lactate levels or central venous
  • 41.
    End Points ofResuscitation • Goal of resuscitation is to maximize survival and minimize morbidity • Use objective hemodynamic and physiologic values to guide therapy • Goal directed approach • Urine output > 0.5 mL/kg/hr • CVP 8-12 mmHg • MAP 65 to 90 mmHg • Central venous oxygen concentration > 70%

    Management of hypovolemic shock: AIM: To restore cardiac filling pressure promptly and adequately without inducing pulmonary edema. Measures:  1. Arresting ongoing blood loss.  2. Restoration of blood volume.  3. Correction of metabolic acidosis Arresting ongoing blood loss:  External haemorrage by pressure elevation and tourniquet.  Internal haemorrhage by immediate surgical exploration. Restoration of circulating blood volume: Start two large bore I.V. cannula,  Debate still exists over the type, amount and rate of infusion of fluids.  Fluid challenge test is the guideline for rate of infusion.
