Shock -- Definition • Circulation inadequate to satisfy overall cellular metabolic requirement. • Hypotension • MAP decreased > 30 mmHg (< 60 mmHg) • SBP decreased > 40 mmHg (< 90 mmHg) • Hypoperfusion; clinical of vital organ dysfunctions
Shock -- Clinical manifestation I • Hypotension: At least one criteria. • MAP < 60 mmHg or • Decreased MAP > 30 mmHg or • SBP < 90 mmHg or • Decrease SBP > 40 mmHg
Shock -- Clinical manifestation II • Hypoperfusion (at least one system involvement) • CNS: Agitation, anxiety, confusion, alteration of consciousness, unconscious COMA • CVS: Hypotension, tachycardia, dysrhythmias, thready pulse, new murmurs or valvular regurgitation or dysfunction, capillary refill > 3 sec • RS: Tachypnea, dyspnea, cyanosis • Renal: Oliguria, anuria • Skin: Paleness, dusky skin, cool, clammy skin, profuse sweating, bluish lips and fingernils • Other: Lactic acidosis
By pathophysiology (New categories) Hypovolemic Cardiogenic Obstructive Distributive Hyperdynamic By site of origin dysfunction (Previous) Hypovolemic Cardiogenic Vasogenic (anaphylactic) Septic Shock -- Classification • Overlap exists, and also concomitant categories exist
Shock -- Classification -- Cardiogenic • Endocardium • Valvular: stenosis, regurgitation • Septal defects • Myocardial • Infarction, contusion, myocarditis, cardiomyopathy, pharmacologic, depressant factors • Pericardium (Hemodynamic likely to Obstructive) • Constrictive pericarditis, Cardiac tamponade • Arrhythmogenic
Extrinsic causes Pericardial tamponade Constrictive pericarditis Tension pneumothorax High PEEP, High alveolar pressure Obstructive intrathoracic tumors Intrinsic causes PE Pulmonary vascular disease Hypoxic pul vasoconstriction Atrial myxoma (R) Atrial thrombus (R) Metastatic tumors Endocarditis (R) Shock -- Classification --Obstructive
Shock -- Management Five major principles • Prompt recognition. • Initial supportive management. • Airway • Volume replacement • Cardiovascular drugs • Determine & management primary problem leading to shock. • Management of complications.
Shock – Volume replacement • Position: • FEET UP / HEAD FLAT OR 30 DEGREES • Not use Trendelenberg position • Vascular access • If no evidence of cardiogenic pulmonary edema, trial of volume expansion. • Initially, 500-750 of colloid or 1-2 litres crystalloid during the first hour.
Shock – Volume replacement • Rate and type of on-going fluid administration depends on: • Clinical scenario - Clinical response • Presence of pulmonary edema (cardiac or non-cardiac) is strong contraindication to more fluid admin without more hemodynamic info.
Shock – Cardiovascular drugs • Severe BP drop is disasterous to brain and heart. Use vasopressor initially, even in hypovolemic shock, in order to keep MAP >50-60 until caught up withvolume. • Dopamine is initially used often. • Switch early to norepinphrine or even start with it. Some studies show greater benefit in renal perfusion and cardiac function that with dopamine.
Shock -- ManagementUse of vasopressors • Dopamine • Norepinephrine • Dobutamine • Epinephrine (anaphylactic shock) • Dopexamine (dopa 1,2, and beta 2)

Syncope Definition • Collapse,Blackout • A sudden, transient loss of consciousness and postural tone, with spontaneous recovery
Syncope Diagnostic Objectives • Distinguish ‘True’ Syncope from other ‘Loss of Consciousness’ spells: • Seizures • Psychiatric disturbances • Establish the cause of syncope with sufficient certainty to: • Assess prognosis confidently • Initiate effective preventive treatment
