Overview

Shock is the syndrome of circulatory failure that results in inadequate cellular oxygen utilization. The diagnosis of shock is based on clinical signs and biochemical abnormalities indicative of tissue hypoperfusion.[1]

Causes

Life Threatening Causes

Shock is a life-threatening condition and must be treated as such irrespective of the underlying cause.

Common Causes

  • Cardiogenic shock
  • Arrhythmic
  • Sinoatrial block
  • Atriventricular block
  • Ventricular tachycardia
  • Supraventricular tachycardia
  • Mechanical
  • Hypertropic cardiomyopathy
  • Valvular failure
  • Ventricular septal defect
  • Myocardial
  • Cardiomyopathy
  • Myocardial contusion
  • Myocardial infarction
  • Myocarditis
  • Postischemic myocardial stunning
  • Septic myocardial depression
  • Pharmacologic
  • Anthracycline cardiotoxicity
  • Calcium channel blockers
  • Obstructive shock
  • Decreased cardiac compliance
  • Cardiac tamponade
  • Constrictive pericarditis
  • Decreased ventricular preload
  • Increased ventricular afterload
  • Aortic dissection
  • Pulmonary embolism
  • Pulmonary hypertension
  • Hypovolemic shock
  • Fluid depletion
  • Dehydration
  • Diarrhea
  • Polyuria
  • Vomiting
  • Hemorrhage
  • Gastrointenstinal bleeding
  • Retroperitoneal hemorrhage
  • Trauma
  • Distributive shock

FIRE: Focused Initial Rapid Evaluation

A Focused Initial Rapid Evaluation (FIRE) as shown below should be performed to identify patients in need of immediate intervention.
