This document defines and describes the different types of shock:
1) Hypovolemic shock occurs when there is severe bleeding, fluid loss, or reduced circulating blood volume leading to decreased cardiac output and blood flow.
2) Cardiogenic shock results from heart failure or damage that prevents the heart from pumping effectively.
3) Septic shock is caused by an overwhelming systemic infection where toxic substances impair blood flow.
4) Anaphylactic shock involves an allergic reaction that causes blood vessel dilation and low blood pressure through histamine release.
Coronary thrombosis is formation of a blood clot inside a blood vessel of heart. Thrombosis in the heart can pave to a myocardial infarction. Coronary Thrombosis is general in high blood pressure patient, diabetic, and victims of atherosclerosis. The treatment is decreasing pain, improving blood flow to the heart muscle, and preventing irreversible damage to the heart muscle.
Coronary Thrombosis in the heart can pave to a myocardial infarction. Coronary thrombosis and myocardial infarction are sometimes availed as synonyms, although this is technically much inaccurate as the thrombosis refers to the blocking of blood vessels, while the infarction refers to the tissue death due to the consequent loss of blood flow to the heart tissue. The heart comprises many connecting blood vessels, and depending upon the location of the thrombosis, the infarction may cause no symptoms [1, 2] (Fig: 1 &2).

Calvin Klein’s new fragrance CK Shock had no choice but to make a splash on campus. Announcing itself to the student body was without question, the more daring the better. Students were treated to performances by Khuli Chana as well as being witness to some extreme and shocking challenges. From male students having to wax their face & chest and getting impromptu tattoos, to girls allowing promoters to take a pair of scissors to their jeans leaving them with nothing more than denim hot pants. Prizes, samples and massive student interaction ensured that CK Shock left campuses having left a very big impression!
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
2. Inadequate oxygen delivery to meet metabolic
demands
Shock is a state of physical shutdown. In this
condition there is not enough circulating
blood. Shock can cause multiple organ
failure. It can lead to life-threatening
complications, such as heart failure
3. Profound hemodyamic and metabolic
disturbance characterized by failure of the
circulatory system to maintain adequate
perfusion of vital organs.
Inadequate perfusion and oxygenation of
cells leads to:
• Cellular dysfunction and damage
• Organ dysfunction and damage
4. Pathophysiology: of shock
Tissue perfusion is determined by Mean Arterial
Pressure (MAP)
MAP = CO x SVR*o2 content in the blood
Heart rate Stroke Volume
5. 1.Neurogenic Shock
Injury or trauma to the nervous system
(spinal cord, brain). Nerve impulse to
blood vessels impaired, blood vessels
remain dilated and blood pressure
decreases.
6. • Occurs after acute spinal cord injury
• Sympathetic outflow is disrupted leaving
unopposed vagal tone
• Results in hypotension and bradycardia
• Spinal shock- temporary loss of spinal reflex
activity below a total or near total spinal cord
injury (not the same as neurogenic shock, the
terms are not interchangeable)
7. • Loss of sympathetic tone results in warm and dry
skin
• Shock usually lasts from 1 to 3 weeks
• Any injury above T1 can disrupt the entire
sympathetic system
• Higher injuries = worse paralysis
MPA= CO*SVR decrease
8. Cardiogenic Shock
Myocardial Infarction with damage to heart
muscle; heart unable to pump effectively.
Inadequate cardiac output. Body cells do
not receive enough oxygen.
9. Myocardial Injury or Obstruction to Flow
• Arrythymias
• valvular lesions
• AMI
• Severe CHF
• Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
13. Severe bleeding or loss of body fluid from
trauma, burns, surgery, or dehydration
from severe nausea and vomiting. Blood
pressure decreases, thus blood flow is
reduced to cells, tissue, and organs
OR
Reduced circulating blood volume with
secondary decreased cardiac output
16. Heart pumps well, but not enough blood volume to pump
MAP = CO x SVR
HR x Stroke volume
17. Normal
MAP = CO x SVR
Hypovolemic
MAP = ↓CO x
SVR
MAP = ↓CO
x ↑ SVR
↓MAP = ↓↓CO x ↑ SVR
18. When the blood flow decrease the
resistance of the blood vessel increase to
response the body constrict the blood
vessel cause vasoconstriction due to
sympathatic tone of vessel.
Due to increase the resistance of vessel the
blood flow squeese towards the heart,
mostly happened in the venous drainage.
Sympathetic tone also act on the heart to
increased the heart rate.
19. An acute infection, usually systemic, that
overwhelms the body (toxic shock
symdrome). Poisonous substances
accumulate in bloodstream and blood
pressure decreases, impairing blood flow
to cells, tissues, and organs.
20.
21. Clinical signs:
Hyperthermia or hypothermia
Tachycardia
Wide pulse pressure
Low blood pressure (SBP<90)
Mental status changes
Beware of compensated shock!
Blood pressure may be “normal”
22.
23. Results from reaction to substance to
which patient is hypersensitive or allergic
(allergen extracts, bee sting, medication,
food). Outpouring of histamine results in
dilation of blood vessels throughout the
body.
24. Anaphylactic shock have two types:
1. Immonulogical anaphylactic shock
2. Non immonulogical anaphylactic shock
Firs the allergen ( from food, bees and toxin)
interect with the B cell (creating
antibody). Antibody react against the
allergen.
IgE immunglobin activated and attached to
mast cell ( mediated immune system).
Mast cell activated immune mediated
25. Mast communicate with other WBCS to
recruited in the allergy side. Both mast cell
and immune system activated and release
histamine, dilated the blood vessel.
Increase the diameter of blood vessel
decrease the BP and also fluid escape
from the vessel cause swelling and
edema.
2. Non immunological respone:
Allergen specifically attached to the
26. Heart pumps well, but there is peripheral
vasodilation due to loss of vessel tone
MAP = CO x SVR
HR x Stroke volume
27. Normal
MAP = CO x SVR
Anaphylactic
MAP = co x ↓ SVR
MAP =
↑co x ↓ SVR
↓MAP = ↑co x ↓↓ SVR
28. 6.Psychogenic Shock
Shock caused by overwhelming emotional
factors. Sudden dilation of blood vessels
results in fainting because of lack of blood
supply to the brain.
29. 7.Respiratory Shock
Trauma to the respiratory tract (trachea,
lungs) that causes a reduction of oxygen
and carbon dioxide exchange. Body cells
cannot receive enough oxygen.
30. decrease in blood pressure
rapid, weak, or absent pulse
irregular heart rate
confusion
rapid and shallow breathing
anxiety
decrease in urine
chest pain
nausea
thirst and dry mouth
low blood sugar
fever (septic shock only)
hives and swelling of the face and throat
(anaphylactic shock only)
31. Anything that affects the flow of blood through
the body can cause shock. Some common
causes of shock are:
significant blood loss
dehydration
allergic reaction
reduced blood pressure
heart failure
nerve damage
blood infections
32. Hypovolemic shock is usually treated by
blood transfusion.
Shock caused by dehydration is treated
with IV fluids.
Shock caused by anaphylaxis is treated
with epinephrine and other drugs.
Cardiogenic shock is treated by improving
blood flow through to the heart.
