Q

General circulatory shock

Patho/Lab/Tx

A

Patho (lack of O2 in tissue and orgran )

  1. Autonomic - loss of O2 -> increase CO and SVR to maintain
  2. lack of O2 -> anareobic metabolic -> by product lactic acid

Lab: CBC, BMP, Lactate

Tx: ABCDE

Airway(intubation)

Breath (ventilation)

Circulation (IV fluid)

Delivary O2 check - lactate level

End (Urine output check 0.5ml/kg/hr)
