Echocardiography Findings

Classification of shock based on echocardiographic findings.

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
