5. Respiratory Shock Inability of the patient’s respiratory system to support itself, i.e. respiratory distress, respiratory failure, respiratory arrest. S R

6. Insulin Shock Results when a diabetic has too much insulin in his system, driving sugar rapidly out of the blood and into the cells. An insuffucient blood sugar level results, impairing normal brain function. S I
