Definition
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Common Causes
- Cardiogenic shock
- Pump problems (e.g. post-MI), cardiomyopathy
- Mechanical (e.g. cardiac tamponade, tension pneumothorax), aortic stenosis
- Electrical eg VT or AF or most fundamentally VF
- Hypovolemic shock
- True hypovolemia
- Bleeding i.e hemorrhagic shock
- Fluid loss (e.g. diarrhoea, vomiting, bowel obstruction, 'third' spacing)
- Redistributive shock
- Relative hypovolemia
- Obstructive shock
- The flow of blood is obstructed which impedes circulation and can result in circulatory arrest
- Cardiac tamponade
- Constrictive pericarditis
- Tension pneumothorax
- Massive pulmonary embolism
- Aortic stenosis by compromising ventricular outflow tract
- Endocrine shock
- Hypothyroidism reduces cardiac output and may cause hypotension and respiratory insufficiency
- Thyrotoxicosis may induce a reversible cardiomyopathy
- Acute adrenal insufficiency due to discontinuing corticosteroid without tapering
- Relative adrenal insufficiency in critically ill patients where present hormone levels are insufficient to meet the higher demands
