This document discusses the different types of shock, including their causes, pathophysiology, and signs. The four main types of shock are hypovolemic, distributive, cardiogenic, and obstructive shock. Hypovolemic shock is most commonly caused by diarrhea, vomiting, hemorrhage, or inadequate fluid intake. Distributive shock involves abnormal blood vessel dilation and includes septic, anaphylactic, and neurogenic shock. Cardiogenic shock results from heart failure that prevents adequate circulation. Obstructive shock occurs when blood flow is physically blocked, such as in cardiac tamponade, tension pneumothorax, or pulmonary embolism. The document provides details on the pathophysiology and signs
