BLOOD LOSS
When blood is lost the body reacts specifically to preserve blood supply to the brain and heart.
The adrenal gland secretes catecholamines which increase peripheral resistance (raising the blood pressure).
The kidneys secrete renin which retains sodium and thus water by the renin angiotensin system

These early compensatory changes suffice if <25% blood volume lost.
If>25% blood volume lost then transfusion is required as there is a risk of shock, dependent upon the age and health of the patient.

In assessing response to transfusion, measurement of central venous pressure (CVP) using a catheter inserted into the right side of the heart gives a better idea of the true circulatory status than simply measuring the blood pressure, which can be maintained by the compensatory mechanisms described until a critical situation is imminent.

BLOOD LOSS
If blood volume is not restored, the following events take place, resulting in a critically ill patient:
Circulation becomes sluggish because:
a) artetioles relax and the vascular beds fill with subsequent departure of fluid into the extravascular compartment; this results in haemoconcentration.
b) blood viscosity is raised because red cells form rouleaux, and the blood fibrinogen is raised.

If blood volume is not restored, the following events take place, resulting in a critically ill patient:
Damaged endothelium releases thromboplastins which trigger the coagulation cascade: this results in disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Blood clotting factors are consumed and the patient therefore has a bleeding tendency.

If blood volume is not restored, the following events take place, resulting in a critically ill patient:
Lack of oxygen in the tissues results in metabolic acidosis: this depresses myocardial action.
Damaged cells release potassium resulting in hyperkalaemia.
Corticosteroid action (from the adrenals) results in hyperglycaemia.

SHOCK
CARDIOGENIC SHOCK: CAUSES
Myocardial infarction and its complications, for example ruptured papillary muscle, result in
ACUTE PUMP FAILURE
Mortality is high (at least 80%).
The effects are similar to hypovolaemic shock, but of course management is different as there is no urgent requirement for fluid.

SHOCK
SEPTIC SHOCK: CAUSES
Septic shock is caused by bacterial endotoxins or exotoxins in the blood .
The toxins can be released, for example from bacteria in a focus of sepsis such as an abcess, or from bacterial growth in the flowing blood (septicaemia e.g. meningococcal)

SEPTIC SHOCK:ENDOTOXIC and EXOTOXIC
The diagram shows production of exotoxins by bacteria which remain intact (left). This contrasts with endotoxic shock where the whole bacteria break up and cell wall lipopolysaccarides activate the complement and coagulation cascades.
In practice endotoxic and septic shock are often used synonymously.

29
SHOCK
SEPTIC SHOCK MECHANISM
The toxins from bacteria damage endothelium. Nitric oxide (NO) is released which causes vasodilatation. Unlike hypovolaemic shock there is no vasoconstriction phase.
However, as with late phase hypovolaemic shock, endothelial damage results in DIC as previously explained.

SHOCK
ANAPHYLACTIC SHOCK: AETIOLOGY
Histamine release from blood basophils
Drugs e.g. penicillinStingsFoods e.g. Shellfish, Peanuts
Vasodilatation - blood pressure drops
34
SHOCK
ANAPHYLACTIC SHOCK: MECHANISM
Antigen, for example wasp venom accesses specific IgE on blood basophils. IgE dimerises at the cell surface and the basophil releases histamine by degranulation: vasodilatation causes the blood pressure to drop.
Clinical features of shock develop rapidly.

36
SHOCK
ANAPHYLACTIC SHOCK:TREATMENT
Adrenaline and hydrocortisone are given in the acute phase. The patient may recover without further specific treatment.
If not, full support in an intensive care unit will be required.
