Understanding hypovolaemic, cardiogenic and septic shock.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Shock is a complex physiological syndrome. If it is not detected and treated promptly, it can lead to death. This article reviews and summarises the latest findings, treatment and nursing and medical interventions for three of the most common forms of shock, namely, hypovolaemic, cardiogenic and septic shock.

متن کاملManagement of Septic Shock in Children
Paediatric septic shock is a frequently occurring disease condition that is associated with high morbidity and mortality (Watson et al, 2003). Shock is an acute, complex state of circulatory dysfunction resulting in failure to deliver oxygen (DO2) and nutrients to meet metabolic demands (VO2) which are usually increased during shock. If left untreated, multiple organ failure and ultimately deat...
متن کاملMicrocirculatory dysfunction and resuscitation: why, when, and how.
Cardiovascular resuscitation is a cornerstone of critical care practice. Experimental advances have increased our understanding of the role of the microcirculation in shock states and the development of multi-organ failure. Strategies that target the microcirculation in such conditions, while theoretically appealing, have not yet been shown to impact upon clinical outcomes. This review outlines...
متن کاملNear infrared spectroscopy for evaluation of skeletal muscle tissue oxygenation in different types of shock
Clinical examination is non-invasive, but has well-recognized limitations in detecting compensated and uncompensated low flow states and their severity. This paper describes the principles of near infra-red spectroscopy (NIRS) and the basis for its proposed use, in hypovolaemic, cardiogenic and septic shock, for assessing global and regional tissue oxygenation. The vascular occlusion test is ex...
