Echocardiography Findings

Classification of shock based on echocardiographic findings.[1]
Type of Shock Echocardiographic Findings
Cardiogenic Acute Ventricular Septal Defect Large ventricles with poor contractility
Acute Mitral Regurgitation
Myocardial Dysfunction
RV Infarction Dilated RV, small LV, abnormal wall motions
Obstructive Pulmonary Embolism Dilated RV, small LV
Cardiac Tamponade Pericardial effusion, small ventricles, dilated inferior vena cava
Distributive Septic Shock Normal cardiac chambers with preserved contractility
Anaphylactic Shock
Hypovolemic Volume Depletion Small cardiac chambers with normal or high contractility
