2004 Johnston, MD Shock 1. Describe the basic underlying pathology that exists in all forms of shock. 2. List the different types of shock. 3. List the stages of shock. 4. Describe the pathologic changes that occur in patients who are in hemorrhagic shock 5. Describe the general appearance and behavior of a patient in hemorrhagic shock. 2004 Johnston, MD What Shock is not 2004 Johnston, MD What is Shock? A medical condition, not a diagnosis Types: Hypovolemic (eg. Hemorragic) Cardiogenic Distributive (eg. Septic, neurogenic) Obstructive (eg. Cardiac tamponade, Tension Pneumothorax)
TYPES OF SHOCK More than 100 TYPES OF SHOCK have been described Often classified by the cause of the syndrome Two or more types are often combined Hypovolemia may occur with septic shock Elements of cardiogenic shock may occur in other types of shock The three essential patterns of circulatory shock I II III TYPES OF SHOCK
Regardless of the classification, the underlying defect is always inadequate tissue perfusion!!!! Shock Tissue injury from trauma may exacerbate shock by causing microemboli and further activating the inflammatory and coagulation systems BLOOD AND ITS COMPONENTS Blood volume: Average adult male has a blood volume of 7% of total body weight (approx. 5 Kg or 5 L of blood) Average adult female has a blood volume of 6.5% of body weight BLOOD AND ITS COMPONENTS Red blood cells (erythrocytes) (RBCs): Transport 99% of blood oxygen Remaining 1% is carried dissolved in plasma (0.3 ml O 2 /100 ml of blood) Make up approximately 45% of the blood (Hct) and are the most abundant cells in the body BLOOD AND ITS COMPONENTS Red blood cells (erythrocytes) (RBCs): Provide oxygen to tissues and remove carbon dioxide Each RBC contains approximately 270 million hemoglobin molecules Allow RBCs to pick up oxygen in the lungs and release it to body tissues FLUIDS AND ELECTROLYTES Water is the main component of body mass: Accounting for 50%-60% of body weight in adults Tissue Cells Interstitial Fluid in the Interstitial Space Fluid Spaces Basic Physiology of Hypovolemic Shock 2004 Johnston, MD Causes Anything that causes rapid fluid loss Most commonly rapid blood loss: penetrating trauma, GI, acute internal blood loss Also be caused by fluid loss: can you name 2? We will focus on blood loss
2004 Johnston, MD Pathophysiology Acute hemorrhage results in a physiologic response from 4 systems: Hematologic: Coagulation and Constriction Cardiovascular: Inc. HR, SVR, Contractility; blood shunted to heart, brain, kidneys and away from skin, muscle, GI tract Renal: Increase Renin production Neuroendocrine: ADH release
STAGES OF SHOCK THREE DISTINCT STAGES COMPENSATED SHOCK DECOMPENSATED SHOCK IRREVERSIBLE SHOCK With small volume and pressure declines, compensations can restore pressure. If losses are large, no recovery may be possible Time Outcomes of same vol. lost over diff. periods of time. Slow losses (III, IV) allow compensations to take effect. Rapid loss (I, II) of same vol. is fatal STAGES OF SHOCK Compensated Shock Entails some decreased tissue perfusion, but the body's compensatory responses are sufficient to overcome the decrease in available fluid Cardiac output and a normal systolic blood pressure are maintained by increasing catecholamine production STAGES OF SHOCK Compensated Shock Rate & Depth of Respirations Increase The decrease in perfusion and the subsequent increase in acidosis lead to a chemoreceptor response that increases the rate and depth of ventilation so as to - decrease metabolic acidosis by decreasing PCO 2 STAGES OF SHOCK Compensated Shock Sympathetic stimulation: Sympathetic constriction of veins decreases amount of blood held in veins causing BP and Cardiac Output (CO) to be maintained. Increases heart rate and contractility (inc. cardiac output) - BP and CO are maintained Constriction of the arteries leading to increased peripheral vascular resistance (BP is maintained) - and decreased capillary flow (cool skin) Creates bronchodilation (improved air exchange) STAGES OF SHOCK COMPENSATED SHOCK If the underlying cause of shock is untreated, the compensatory mechanisms eventually collapse Low Flow Micro- Circulatory System AV Shunt Precapillary Sphincter Control of A-V Shunt by Precapillary Sphincter STAGES OF SHOCK COMPENSATED SHOCK - Vasoconstriction: Progression of shock in the microcirculation produces a sequence of changes in capillary perfusion Vasoconstriction begins as minimal perfusion to capillaries continues Oxygen and substrate delivery to the cells supplied by these capillaries decreases STAGES OF SHOCK COMPENSATED SHOCK Vasoconstriction: Due to a lack of oxygen - anaerobic metabolism replaces aerobic metabolism Production of lactate and hydrogen ions increases (acid production) STAGES OF SHOCK COMPENSATED SHOCK Vasoconstriction: Capillaries start to become leaky and protein-containing fluid leaks into the interstitial spaces (leaky capillary syndrome) STAGES IN SHOCK COMPENSATED SHOCK Vasoconstriction: AV shunts open (sphincters constrict), particularly in the skin, muscle, GI tract Causing less flow to the arterioles and less flow through the capillaries Sympathetic stimulation produces pale, sweaty skin; rapid thready pulse; and elevated blood glucose levels STAGES OF SHOCK COMPENSATED SHOCK Vasoconstriction: The release of epinephrine dilates coronary, and cerebral arterioles and constricts other arterioles Blood is shunted to the heart, brain, and kidneys and capillary flow to skeletal muscle and other abdominal viscera decreases Sympathetically mediated vasoconstriction STAGES OF SHOCK BLOOD PRESSURE IS MAINTAINED BY COMPENSATORY MECHANISMS Blood stored in venous system is transferred into arterial system by venous constriction Increased cardiac contractions Increased heart rate (variable) STAGES OF SHOCK COMPENSATED SHOCK: If this stage of shock is not treated by prompt restoration of circulatory volume, shock progresses to the next stage HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK One great consequence of blood loss is the intense vasoconstriction, the shrinkage of the capacity of the vascular bed to accommodate the decreased blood volume...adjustments for blood loss take place...the entry of fluid into the blood vessels in a compensatory attempt. The greatest extravascular store of readily available fluid in the body is...in the extracellular space. Dehydration and oligemia may make quite early demands not only on this but also on the intracellular supply as well.

STAGES OF SHOCK DECOMPENSATED SHOCK MARKED INCREASE IN HEART RATE PROLONGED CAPILLARY REFILL BLOOD FLOW TO CRITICAL ORGANS DROPS Decreased urine output (decreased flow to kidneys) Altered mental status (decreased flow to brain) STAGES OF SHOCK DECOMPENSATED SHOCK - Capillary and Venule Opening As the shock state continues, the precapillary sphincters relax, with some expansion of the vascular space Postcapillary sphincters resist local effects and remain closed, causing blood to pool or stagnate in the capillary system, producing capillary engorgement Pre-Capillary Sphincters Relax Due to Shock Related Stimuli STAGES OF SHOCK (please correct yours) DECOMPENSATED SHOCK (Capillary and Venule Opening): Arterial hypotension and closing of the AV shunts results in more blood flow through capillary networks Contribute to stagnation of blood flow in the capillaries STAGES OF SHOCK DECOMPENSATED SHOCK (Capillary and Venule Opening): As increasing hypoxemia and acidosis lead to opening of additional venules and capillaries, the vascular space expands greatly Even a NORMAL blood volume may be inadequate to fill the container (this has implications for fluid resuscitation) STAGES OF SHOCK DECOMPENSATED SHOCK (Capillary and Venule Opening): The capillary and venule capacity may become great enough to reduce the volume of available blood for the great veins and vena cava Resulting in decreased venous return and a fall in cardiac output STAGES OF SHOCK DECOMPENSATED SHOCK (Capillary and Venule Opening): The viscera (lung, liver, kidneys, and GI mucosa) may become congested due to stagnant blood flow STAGES OF SHOCK DECOMPENSATED SHOCK (Capillary and Venule Opening): The respiratory system attempts to compensate for the acidosis by increasing ventilation to blow off carbon dioxide Increased respiratory rate Producing a partially compensated metabolic acidosis STAGES OF SHOCK DECOMPENSATED SHOCK (Capillary and Venule Opening): Clotting mechanisms are also affected, leading to hypercoagulability (DIC) This stage of shock often progresses to irreversible shock if fluid resuscitation is inadequate or delayed, or if the shock state is complicated by trauma or sepsis
STAGES OF SHOCK IRREVERSIBLE SHOCK 2004 Johnston, MD Question: What type of Shock would you expect in these victims? STAGES OF SHOCK Irreversible Shock Occurs when the body is no longer able to maintain systolic pressure Both the systolic and diastolic pressure begin to drop Pulse pressure may be narrowed to such an extent that it is not detectable with a blood pressure cuff STAGES OF SHOCK Irreversible Shock Signs and symptoms Bradycardia Serious dysrhythmias Frank hypotension Evidence of multiple organ failure Pale, cold, and clammy skin Noticeably delayed capillary refill Cardiopulmonary collapse is usually imminent Time (hr) Irreversible Shock. The loss of arterial pressure causes damage from which ultimate recovery is not possible despite temp. restoration of BP STAGES OF SHOCK Irreversible Shock As compensatory mechanisms fail Cerebral blood flow decreases Marked alteration in mental status PO 2 may drop PCO 2 usually remains normal or low unless there is associated head or chest injury that leads to hypoventilation STAGES OF SHOCK Irreversible Shock Myocardial strength may decrease from ischemia secondary to: A reduction of circulating RBCs A lower oxygen saturation Decreased coronary perfusion secondary to hypotension (especially diastolic hypotension) STAGES OF SHOCK Irreversible Shock-myocardial strength decrease: Necrosis of myocardium from same causes associated with ischemia Essentially simulating myocardial infarction Decreased preloading leading to decreased contractility Acidosis possibly leading to decreased contractility Circumferential Subendocardial Infarction due to Shock STAGES OF SHOCK Irreversible Shock: Cardiac rhythm disturbances secondary to hypoxia (Impaired cardiac function)
STAGES OF SHOCK Irreversible Shock Manifested by the progression of cellular ischemia and necrosis and by subsequent organ death despite restoration of oxygenation and perfusion Complications of Shock STAGES OF SHOCK IRREVERSIBLE SHOCK Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC) Pulmonary capillaries become permeable, leading to pulmonary edema Decreases the absorption of oxygen and results in possible alterations in carbon dioxide elimination May lead to acute respiratory failure or adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) Shock Lung Congestive atelectasis and diffuse alveolar damage due to shock (ARDS) Acute passive congestion of the lung due to shock Congested Lung Due to Shock STAGES OF SHOCK IRREVERSIBLE SHOCK Multiple Organ Failure The amount of cellular necrosis required to produce organ failure varies with each organ as well as the underlying condition of the organ STAGES OF SHOCK IRREVERSIBLE SHOCK Multiple Organ Failure: In this stage, blood pressure falls dramatically Cells can no longer use oxygen, and metabolism stops STAGES OF SHOCK IRREVERSIBLE SHOCK Multiple Organ Failure: Usually hepatic failure occurs, followed by renal failure, and then heart failure If capillary occlusion persists for more than 1-2 hours, the cells nourished by that capillary undergo changes that rapidly become irreversible Acute congestion of liver due to shock Acute centrilobular hemorrhage due to Shock Acute cortical necrosis of the kidney due to shock Acute tubular necrosis of the kidney due to shock STAGES OF SHOCK IRREVERSIBLE SHOCK Multiple Organ Failure: GI bleeding and sepsis may result from GI mucosal necrosis Pancreatic necrosis may lead to further clotting disorders and severe pancreatitis Intestinal mucosal hemorrhages due to shock Adrenal gland hemorrhage due to shock STAGES OF SHOCK Variations in Physiological Responses to Shock Age and relative health General physical condition Preexisting diseases 2004 Johnston, MD A few of the patients [in shock] even presented a raised systolic blood pressure, while of those with a blood pressure of under 100 mm. Hg., some had rapid pulses, others only slightly more rapid than normal. A few, and these generally patients over fifty years, showed a pulse rate under seventy. In younger people the blood pressure was better maintained but the pulse rate tended to be faster.
Surgery Chapter 3 Shock and Resuscitation by Sir Zachary Cope, Edited by Sir Zachary Cope, London, Her Majestys Stationary Office, 1953, p. 78-88 HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK STAGES OF SHOCK Variations in Physiological Responses to Shock Ability to activate compensatory mechanisms Older adults are less able to compensate (develop hypotension early) Children compensate longer and deteriorate faster Medications may interfere with compensatory mechanisms SHOCK IS A MOMENTARY PAUSE IN THE ACT OF DYING
HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK When much blood is lost, the pulse becomes feeble, the skin extremely pale, the body covered with a malodorous sweat, the extremities frigid, and death occurs speedily Aulus Conelius Celsus, First Century Roman Savant
HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK ...the greatest loss of hemoglobin occurs in wounds that involve compound fractures of the long bones or traumatic amputation..it is the wounds that are associated with great hemorrhage that cause the severe shock. Beecher, Henry K, Simeone, Fiorindo, Mallory, Tracy B., et al: Recent Advances in Surgery I. The Internal State of the Severely Wounded Man on Entry to the Most Forward Hospital. Surgery 22:672-711 Oct 1947 2004 Johnston, MD Shock and Trauma HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK A word on autoregulation The body sacrifices less vital organ tissue to maintain oxygen and nutrient flow to the brain and heart Vital organs are also protected by local factors that provide these organs with the ability to autoregulate blood flow In the brain and heart, blood flow and oxygen delivery remain constant over a wide range of arterial pressures 2004 Johnston, MD Clinical Classes of Shock Class I hemorrhage (loss of 0-15%) In the absence of complications, only minimal tachycardia is seen. Usually, no changes in BP, pulse pressure, or respiratory rate occur. A delay in capillary refill of longer than 3 seconds corresponds to a volume loss of approximately 10%.
2004 Johnston, MD Class II hemorrhage (loss of 15-30%) Clinical symptoms include tachycardia (rate >100 beats per minute), tachypnea, decrease in pulse pressure, cool clammy skin, delayed capillary refill, and slight anxiety. The decrease in pulse pressure is a result of increased catecholamine levels, which causes an increase in peripheral vascular resistance and a subsequent increase in the diastolic BP.
2004 Johnston, MD Class III hemorrhage (loss of 30-40%) patients usually have marked tachypnea and tachycardia, decreased systolic BP, oliguria, and significant changes in mental status, such as confusion or agitation. In patients without other injuries or fluid losses, 30-40% is the smallest amount of blood loss that consistently causes a decrease in systolic BP. Most of these patients require blood transfusions, but the decision to administer blood should be based on the initial response to fluids.
2004 Johnston, MD Class IV hemorrhage (loss of >40%) Symptoms include the following: marked tachycardia, decreased systolic BP, narrowed pulse pressure (or immeasurable diastolic pressure), markedly decreased (or no) urinary output, depressed mental status (or loss of consciousness), and cold and pale skin. This amount of hemorrhage is immediately life threatening.
2004 Johnston, MD Clinical Classification of Shock HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK Possibly, too much attention has been given to the fact that on many occasions [patients in shock may have a normal blood pressure]. ...[T]his has led to a tendency to dismiss the blood pressure as a helpful sign even when it is low - a fatal error, on some occasions. More helpful than the level of the blood pressure, is the direction of its swing - a falling blood pressure, a rising pulse rate, are in most cases an urgent indication of the need for blood. Beecher, LTC Henry K: Annals of Surgery Vol 121, No. 6, June 1945. p769-792
HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK Reminder: Critical Signs / Symptoms of Shock pulse is usually rapid and weak appearance of the wound, extent of blood-soaked clothing, a history of delay in hospital admission, of exposure, of exhaustion - all important considerations when in the field HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK Critical Signs / Symptoms of Shock (cont.) Research into thirst Most important of all is the trend of the pulse and the trend of the blood pressure A rising pulse rate and a falling blood pressure nearly always forecast immediate trouble, especially if associated with a cool skin 2004 Johnston, MD Patient Evaluation In a patient with possible shock secondary to hypovolemia, the history is vital in determining the possible causes and in directing the workup. Symptoms of shock, such as weakness, lightheadedness, and confusion, should be assessed in all patients. In the patient with trauma, determine the mechanism of injury and any information that may heighten suspicion of certain injuries 2004 Johnston, MD In patients with GI bleeding, inquire about hematemesis, melena, drinking history, excessive nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug use, and coagulopathies The chronology of vomiting and hematemesis should be determined. If a gynecologic cause is being considered, gather information about the following: last menstrual period, risk factors for ectopic pregnancy, vaginal bleeding (including amount and duration), vaginal passage of products of conception, and pain.
2004 Johnston, MD HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK TESTS FOR SHOCK BLOOD PRESSURE PULSE PRESSURE PULSE RATE RESPIRATORY RATE CAPILLARY REFILL GEN. APPEARANCE & BEHAVIOR 2004 Johnston, MD If conscious, the patient may be able to indicate the location of pain. Vital signs, prior to arrival in the ED, should also be noted. Chest, abdominal, or back pain may indicate a vascular disorder. The classic sign of a thoracic aneurysm is a tearing pain radiating to the back. Abdominal aortic aneurysms usually result in abdominal or back pain.
HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK The usual mental lethargy associated with shock may be replaced by remarkable mental acuity and activity which may easily deceive an observer into thinking that shock is not present The very nature of shock dictates how difficult or impossible it is to find a pathognomonic sign/symptom or finding which is invariably associated with the presence of shock. HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK REMEMBER: Blood pressure and heart rate are unreliable indicators of rapid deterioration in young trauma patients HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK RELATIVE (paradoxical) BRADYCARDIA May be indicative of a profound blood loss Penetrating abdominal injuries Ectopic pregnancy May also occur in extremity trauma 2004 Johnston, MD Dont Forget! In the patient with trauma, hemorrhage usually is the presumed cause of shock. However, it must be distinguished from other causes of shock. These include: cardiac tamponade (muffled heart tones, distended neck veins), tension pneumothorax (deviated trachea, unilaterally decreased breath sounds), and spinal cord injury (warm skin, lack of expected tachycardia, neurological deficits).
2004 Johnston, MD Remember, hemorrhage can occur through internal losses: chest, abdomen, thighs. The chest should be auscultated for decreased breath sounds, because life- threatening hemorrhage can occur from myocardial, vessel, or lung laceration. The abdomen should be examined for tenderness or distension, which may indicate intraabdominal injury. The thighs should be checked for deformities or enlargement (signs of femoral fracture and bleeding into the thigh).
2004 Johnston, MD The patient's entire body should then be checked for other external bleeding. In the patient without trauma, the majority of the hemorrhage is in the abdomen
2004 Johnston, MD Pregnancy-related disorders include ruptured ectopic pregnancy, placenta previa, and abruption of the placenta. Hypovolemic shock secondary to an ectopic pregnancy is common. Hypovolemic shock secondary to an ectopic pregnancy in a patient with a negative urine pregnancy test is rare but has been reported.
2004 Johnston, MD The upper limit of normal for adult women should be changed to 2.9 seconds, and the upper limit of normal for the elderly should be changed to 4.5 seconds....The temperature dependence of capillary refill raises questions regarding its reliability in the pre-hospital setting.
