Shock is inadequate tissue perfusion.

Cellular Requirements
Oxygen Glucose
All cells need oxygen and glucose to survive. In shock, cells are not getting enough oxygen and/or glucose.

Glucose is then broken down in the mitochondria to generate ATP
and the energy required by the cell to function
The “Mighty Mitochondria” are the power houses of the cells.

Basically, what the diagram at the left shows is how glucose is broken
down into Pyruvate, which generates ATP
(Adenosine Triphosphate)
ATP is the universal energy packet cells use to
drive all metabolism.

Carbon Dioxide Transport
As oxygen is delivered to the cell, carbon dioxide (CO2) is transported away. Mostly by reacting with water to form
H2CO3.

Oxygen Delivery
DO2 = Normal Oxygen DeliveryDO2 = Q X CaO2
DO2 = Q X (1.34 X Hb X SpO2) X 10Normal DO2 is 520 to 570 mL/minute/m2
This is the normal amount of oxygen delivered to tissues in a patient not in shock

Clinical Correlation
DO2 = Q X (1.34 X Hb X SpO2) X 10What factors can affect oxygen delivery to
the tissues?Cardiac Output (Q)
Available Hemoglobin (Hb)Oxygen Saturation (SpO2)
The higher the cardiac output, hemoglobin, and oxygen saturation, the more oxygen delivered to the
tissues. A shortage of any of these three can result in shock.

Oxygen Uptake
VO2 = Q X 13.4 X Hb X (SpO2-SvO2)
Oxygen uptake is the amount of oxygen the body is absorbing from the lungs. It is affected by…
Q Cardiac output (the amount of blood the heart is pumping per minute)
Hb Hemoglobin Level
SpO2 Arterial Oxygen Saturation
SvO2 Venous Oxygen Saturation

Oxygen Extraction Ratio
O2ER = VO2 / DO2 X 100
Normal O2ER = 0.2-0.3 (20 to 30%)
Oxygen extraction ratio is the percent of oxygen the body is using, compared to the
amount delivered.

Metabolic Demand
MRO2 :1. The metabolic demand for oxygen at the tissue level.2. The rate at which oxygen is utilized in the conversion of glucose to energy and water through glycolysis and Kreb’s cycle.

Cardiogenic Shock
Treatment:OxygenMonitorsNitrates (if possible)Morphine or fentanylPressor support (dopamine or dobutamine)If no pulmonary edema, consider small fluid bolusesIABP (Intra Aortic Balloon Pump)Definitive therapy (fibrinolytic therapy, PTCA, CABG, ventricular assist device, cardiac transplant)

Hypovolemic Shock

Isotonic crystalloidsColloids
Hemorrhage:Whole bloodPacked RBCs (Red Blood Cells)HBOCs (Hemoglobin Based Oxygen Carriers. I.e. Artificial Blood)Isotonic Crystalloids

Hypovolemic Shock
Caveat:If shock due to trauma, and bleeding cannot be controlled, give only enough small fluid boluses to maintain radial pulse (SBP≈ 80 mm Hg).If bleeding can be controlled, control bleeding and administer enough fluid or blood to restore normal blood pressure.

Summary
To understand the shock, you must first understand the pathophysiology.Once you understand the pathophysiology, then recognition of the signs and symptoms and treatment becomes intuitive.
