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 ...

BACKGROUND Adult critically ill patients often suffer from acute circulatory failure, necessitating use of vasopressor therapy. The aim of the Scandinavian Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine (SSAI) task force for Acute Circulatory Failure was to present clinically relevant, evidence-based treatment recommendations on this topic. METHODS This guideline was developed accordi...

Heterotopic pregnancy (HP) is a rare condition, with an incidence of 130,000 after spontaneous conception, which increases to 11,000-1100 following assisted reproduction technology (ART), but potentially life threatening, since the rupture EP may lead major internal bleeding, hemoperitoneum and hypovolemic shock.

Shock as an inadequate tissue perfusion is one of the frequent causes of death in trauma patients. In this context, there are various reasons for hemodynamic instability and shock including hypovolemic (hemorrhagic), obstructive (cardiac tamponade, tension pneumothorax), cardiogenic, neurogenic, and rarely septic. In the present report, a 30-year-old trauma patient with full clinical signs and ...

KEY POINTS • Shock is present when there is evidence of multisystem organ hypope fusion; it often presents as reduced mean blood pressure. • Initial resuscitation aims to establish an adequate airway, breathing, and circulation; a working diagnosis or clinical hypothesis of the cause of inadequate circulation should always be made immediately by physical examination and clinical presentation be...

Spleen vascular tumors such as hemangiomas, albeit rare, can present during neonatal period with unexplained circulatory shock. We present a case of a newborn with refractory hypovolemic shock and acute abdomen that underwent emergency splenectomy due to spontaneous rupture of a splenic hemangioma.

Systemic capillary leak syndrome (SCLS) is characterized by recurrent hypovolemic shock associated with edema, hemoconcentration and paradoxal hypoprotidemia due to leakage into the interstitial space. We report a new case with cardiac involvement. A 62-year-old man had two recurrent hypovolemic shocks with SCLS's criteria, associated twice with cardiac systolic dysfunction and atrial fibrillat...

BACKGROUND Rapid ultrasound in shock (RUSH) is the most recent emergency ultrasound protocol, designed to help clinicians better recognize distinctive shock etiologies in a shorter time frame. OBJECTIVES In this study, we evaluated the accuracy of the RUSH protocol, performed by an emergency physician or radiologist, in predicting the type of shock in critical patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS...
