  • Severe blood loss (hemorrhagic shock). External bleeding (for example, due to trauma) or internal bleeding (such as gastric bleeding from a stomach ulcer).
  • Loss of water and electrolytes (sodium and potassium): severe vomiting and diarrhea.
  • Loss of plasma : burns.

    • High heart rate: tachycardia
    • High respiratory rate: tachypnea
    • Arterial hypotension
    • Oliguria: decreased volume of urine emitted
    The physical examination allows to detect these alterations and the medical questioning to determine the possible causes of shock.

    Other useful complementary examinations are:

    • Analytical ( hemogram and biochemistry) that allows to determine the loss of blood, plasma and electrolytes (sodium and potassium).
    • Imaging tests such as ultrasound, CT (computerized axial tomography) and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). Especially useful in those cases in which there are internal bleeding or organ damage.

  • Volume replacement through the administration of blood and / or fluids intravenously . Liquid crystalloid or colloid solutions can be administered.
  • Sometimes the fluid intake is not enough to maintain a sufficient blood pressure to allow blood to reach the tissues and it is also necessary to use other drugs intravenously. The most used are dopamine and norepinephrine.

  • Cause waterlogging by administering fluids quickly and without controlling vital signs.
  • If I have internal bleeding when I send a lot of liquid, I will not be able to control it, because there will be destruction of the clots.
