Abdominal CT signsHypovolemic shock complex (HSC)Purpose: Our aim was to assess the findings of hypovolemia on abdominal CT that are most frequently seen in blunt abdominal trauma patients. When possible, we assessed the correlation of these CT signs with clinical outcome. Methods: MEDLINE, ...

The 2024 revised edition of the Japanese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Management of Sepsis and Septic Shock (J-SSCG 2024) is published by the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine and the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine. This is the fou
Shock is defined as “a state of inadequate cellular sustenance associated with inadequate or inappropriate tissue perfusion resulting in abnormal cellular metabolism” (Hillman & Bishop, 2004, p. 121). There are many etiologies of shock, including sepsis, anaphylactic, neurogenic, hypovolemic, cardio...
More severe fluid loss leads to hypovolemic shock, with hypotension, tachycardia, peripheral vasoconstriction, and peripheral hypoperfusion; these patients may exhibit peripheral cyanosis, cold extremities, oliguria, and altered mental status.Routine chemistries may reveal an increase in blood urea nitrogen...
Furthermore, the virus increases capillary permeability to cause a body fluid loss that results in a hypovolemic shock DSS and multiple organ failures [114]. Hence, the patho-physiological features of severe DF may be due to plasma leakage and abnormal hemostasis. The plasma loss in DF and ...
Most cases of PE are hemodynamically stable (e.g., no signs of shock ), allowing time to assess the pretest probability , as well as utilize PERC and D-dimer testing.Low probability : Traditional Wells score < 2, modified Wells ≤ 4, Geneva score ≤ 3 An option is to review if ...
