In inflammatory disease states, such as sepsis, the return flow of fluid from the interstitial space to the plasma seems to be very slow, which promotes the well-known triad of hypovolemia, hypoalbuminemia, and peripheral edema. Similarly, general anesthesia, for example, even without mechanical...

after the 24th week of gestation. Roughly 30% of maternal mortality in pregnancy is related to antepartum hemorrhage, so for safety an ultrasound examination is given to pregnant women with bleeding during late pregnancy. Hospitalization
Early PPH is defined by the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology as “cumulative blood loss of greater than or equal to 1,000 mL, or blood loss accompanied by signs or symptoms of hypovolemia within 24 hours after the birth process” (Obstet Gynecol, 2017). The definition of late ...
Septic shock is determined by persisting hypotension requiring vasopressors to maintain a mean arterial pressure of 65 mm Hg or greater and a serum lactate level greater than 2 mmol/L in the absence of hypovolemia [26]. An early diagnosis and a rapid initiation of treatment represent crucial ...

syncope or hypovolemia. Other possible diagnoses are the rare case of a ruptured hepatic adenoma in a woman who's been taking oral contracecptives, a ruptured splenic artery aneurysm-- particularly in the pregnant woman--and the spontaneous rupture of the spleen or delayed ruptu...
Overall, the increased parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) effect and opposition to SNS resulted in a decrease in heart rate and mean arterial pressure (MAP). In addition, activation of central OPR can determine the timing of hypotension in experimental acute hemorrhage induced hypovolemia [27]. ...
