Introduction: Hypovolemic shock is diagnosed by the signs of hemodynamic instability and when source volume loss obvious. Among various types, hypovolemic most common which results either from blood hemorrhage or plasma alone due to extravascular fluid sequestration gastrointestinal, urinary, insensible losses. The objective this research was find use index in predicting resuscitation patients ...

We present two cases of Food Protein Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome (FPIES), a non-IgE mediated food hypersensitivity. FPIES induces severe vomiting 1.5-to-3 hours post ingestion of the offending food, and may be associated with diarrhoea, hypovolemic shock and acidosis. Avoidance of that food will lead to resolution of symptoms and prevents further episodes.

Subgaleal hemorrhages, although infrequent in the past, are becoming more common with the increased use of vacuum extraction. Bleeding into the large subgaleal space can quickly lead to hypovolemic shock, which can be fatal. Understanding of anatomy, pathophysiology, risk factors, differential diagnosis, and management will assist in early recognition and care of the infant with a subgaleal hem...

BACKGROUND We designed this study to expand the usage of ultrasound to detect early occurrence of hypovolemia. We explore the potential use of inferior vena cava (IVC) and abdominal aorta (AA) diameter index (IVC:AA) measured ultrasonographically to detect class 1 hypovolemic shock with blood loss less than 15%.ᅟ METHODS The aim of this study was to determine the changes in the diameter of in...

Clinical monitoring of cellular metabolism during shock, based largely on traditional metabolic indicators, remains unsatisfactory. The purpose of this study was to compare venous oxygen tension and blood lactate gradients with blood gradients of purine nucleotide degradation products which are derived from tissue ATP catabolism during hypovolemic shock. Sixteen dogs were instrumented to sample...
