SHOCK
JASHANPREET SINGH BALLAGAN ROLL NO MD-4

2. Shock
Is generalized reduced perfusion ( hypoperfusion) of tissues with blood - which results in impaired oxygenation of tissues.
Occurs due to:
Reduced cardiac output
Reduced blood volume
Reduced vascular tone
Resulting in: hypotension  impaired tissue perfusion  cellular hypoxia  multiple organ failure.

3. Shock Is final common pathway for many lethal conditions: Example:
Severe hemorrhage
Large myocardial infarction
Pulmonary embolism
Sepsis (e.g.bacterial infection)

4. Types of shock Hypovolemic Cardiogenic Septic (endotoxic) shock
Neurogenic
Anaphylactic shock

5. Hypovolemic shock Due to excessive blood or fluid loss. Hemorrhage:
MCC of hopovolemic shock
Loss of >20% of the blood volume (~1000 ml) results in shock.
Excessive fluid loss is seen in:
Excessive sweating, diarrhea, severe burns and excessive vomiting.
Most common cause : Hemorrhage
Could be due to arterial trauma or rupture of an aneurysm.

6. Pathogenesis Decreased Cardiac output (CO):
Due to decreased volume of blood.
Increased total peripheral resistance (TPR):
due to vasoconstriction of arterioles from catecholamines and angiotensin II which are released in response to decreased CO.
Decreased left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV).
Angiotensin II  causes vasoconstriction and increased release of aldosterone from adrenal glands

7. 4.Decreased Mixed venous oxygen content:
Best indicator of tissue hypoxia
Indicates the degree of extraction of O2 from the blood delivered to tissue
In hypovolemic shock decreased blood flow through microcirculation leads to increased extraction of O2 from the blood and a decreased MVO2
Decreased Mixed venous oxygen content (MVO2):
Best indicator of tissue hypoxia
Measured in the right side of the heart with a Swan-Ganz catheter
Indicates the degree of extraction of O2 from the blood delivered to tissue
In hypovolemic shock decreased blood flow through microcirculation leads to increased extraaction of O2 from the blood and a decreased MVO2

8. Clinical findings: Treatment: Cold clammy skin
from vasoconstriction of skin vessels
Hypotension (decreased CO)
Rapid, weak pulse (compensatory response to decreased CO).
Treatment:
IV fluids and whole blood.
Kidney in hypovolemic shock:
renal medulla is most adversely affected
ischemic tubular necrosis common

9. Cardiogenic shock Due to myocardial pump failure, due either to:
1.damage to cardiac muscle
2.extrinsic pressure
3.obstruction to outflow.
Clinical examples
Myocardial infarction
Arrhythmia
Cardiac tamponade
Pulmonary embolism

10. THROMBUS Coronary artery Area of INFARCTION
Heart: Gross changes
THROMBUS
Coronary artery
Area of INFARCTION
Gross or naked eye examination of heart of the patient reveals:
a thrombus (blood clot) in the coronary artery and
an area of dead myocardial tissue (necrosis)
Death of tissue due to blockage in blood supply is known as INFARCTION

11. Cardiogenic shock Most commonly after acute myocardial infarction.
Findings:
Decreased CO :
due to decreased force of contraction in LV.
Increased LVEDV**:
blood accumulates in the left ventricle.
Increased PVR:
same mechanism as in hypovolemic shock.
Decreased MVO2:
Same mechanism as in hypovolemic shock
Clinical findings:
similar to those in hypovolemic shock.

12. Neurogenic Shock
Due to sudden widespread loss of vasomotor tone in venules and small veins (vasodilation)
vessel volume increases  pooling of blood  decreased venous return to heart  decreased CO
Examples:
Fainting
Spinal cord injury

13. Anaphylactic shock
IgE mediated type 1 hypersensitivity response
Characterized by
vasodilation & increased vascular permeability due to release of histamine from mast cells.
Could be seen following a bee sting, hornet sting or intravenous administration of certain drugs. SYMPTOMS- Difficulty breathing, Difficulty swallowing, anxiety, Nasal congestion, Nausea,itchiness, Swelling of the face, eyes, or tongue.
Treatment is subcutaneous injection of epinephrine.

14. Due to overwhelming microbial infection Gram negative septicemia
Septic shock
Most common type of shock with highest mortality.
Due to overwhelming microbial infection
Gram negative septicemia
Gram positive septicemia
Fungal sepsis
Most cases caused by endotoxin producing gram-negative bacteria (usually E.coli) therefore, also k/a
Endotoxic shock*

15. Septic shock Common Causes of septic shock: E.coli sepsis
from indwelling urinary catheter most common cause of septic shock.
Urinary retention
secondary to prostate hyperplasia also common cause.
Spread of localized infection to blood stream:
E.g. an abscess, pneumonia

16. Septic shock Pathogenesis
Endotoxins are component of cell wall of gram negative bacteria
Are lipopolysacchrides (LPS)
Released when bacterial cell wall is degraded.
Endotoxins bind to CD14 receptor on WBC and endothelial cells causing toxic shock syndrome.

17. Septic shock : Pathogenesis
Activation of alternative complement pathway
Result: release of C3a and C5a (vasodilation and neutrophil chemotaxis)
Direct injury to endothelial cells:
Result : release of chemical mediators NO (vasodilator) and PG I2 (vasodilator).
Macrophage release of IL-1/TNF:
Result:
Fever, sleep, increased release of thromboplaastin and NO
Increased neutrophil adhesion to Endothelial cells (e.g. increased neutrophils in pulmonary capillaries)
Actions of TNF alpha:
Upregulation of adhesion molecules (selectins, integrins, IgG superfamily) for neutrophil (PMN) “sticking” to endothelial cells
Induce NOS (nitric oxide synthase) increased release of NO
Release tissue thromboplastin (Activates coagulation cascade)
Systemic: fever, anorexia, somnolence
Nitric oxide: causes vasodilation of peripheral resistance arterioles
C5a and C3a : cause release of Histamine from mast cells  vasodilation

18. Pathophysiology Vasodilation results in
Initial increase in CO:
Due to rapid flow through dilated arterioles causing increased return to heart.
Increased MVO2:
Tissue unable to remove oxygen because of increased blood flow through microcirculation  tissue hypoxia
Decreased Peripheral vascular resistance (PVR):
Due to vasodilation of peripheral arterioles

19. Septic shock Clinical features Warm skin: Bounding pulse
from vasodilation of skin vessels.
Bounding pulse
due to Increased CO
Acute respiratory distress syndrome :
due to neutrophil emigration into alveoli.
Disseminated intravascular coagulation:
due to activation of intrinsic and extrinsic coagulation system.

20. Septic shock: Differences from other types
In septic shock patient has
Warm rather than cold skin
Increased CO
Increased mixed venous oxygen content (MVO2): tissue cannot extract oxygen from increased flow rate.
Decreased PVR
Mixed venous oxygen content: (MVOC)
measured with Swan-Ganz catheter threaded into the right heart
best indicator of tissue hypoxia
indicates how much or how little oxygen was extracted from the blood delivered to tissues
decreased in:
hypovolemic shock : decreased cardiac output allows tissue to extract more oxygen than normal
cardiogenic shock : decreased: same reason
increased in:
endotoxic shock: tissue cannot extract oxygen from increased flow rate.

21. Shock: results Multiple organs get damaged: Kidney:
acute tubular necrosis due to hypoxia causing renal failure.
Kidney in shock:
renal medulla is most adversely affected
ischemic tubular necrosis common

22. Pathogenesis of acute tubular necrosis
Pathogenesis of acute tubular necrosis. Sloughing and necrosis of epithelial cells result in cast formation.
The presence of casts leads to obstruction and increased intraluminal pressure, which reduces glomerular filtration.
Afferent arteriolar vasoconstriction, caused in part by tubuloglomerular feedback, results in decreased glomerular capillary filtration pressure.
Tubular injury and increased intraluminal pressure cause fluid backleakage from the lumen into the interstitium.
Pathogenesis of acute tubular necrosis

23. Acute Tubular Necrosis:
Coagulation necrosis of proximal renal tubular cells (arrows) is evident with some detachment from the basement membrane. This will form renal tubular cell casts.

24. Shock: results Brain: GIT:
Ischemia results in development of focal areas of necrosis.
GIT:
Widespread mucosal ischemia results in multiple hemorrhagic erosions or Gastric stress ulcers

25. Sum 11
A Jalan
Multiple stress ulcers of the stomach, highlighted by dark digested blood on their surfaces.

26. Shock: results
Lungs:
Show signs of diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) also k/a
ARDS (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome)
Due to neutrophil mediated injury
Endotoxic (septic) shock MCC of ARDS.

27. Shock: results Others: lactic acidosis due to tissue hypoxia
Metabolic acidosis:
lactic acidosis due to tissue hypoxia
Severe absolute neutropenia :
increased synthesis of adhesion molecule stimulated by endotoxin (in septic shock)
DIC:
due to activation of coagulation cascade (in septic shock)
Multiorgan dysfunction:
Most common cause of death

28. Stages of shock Stage I: stage of compensation
Perfusion to vital organs is maintained by reflex mechanisms
Increased sympathetic tone
Release of catecholamines
Activation of renin angiotensin mechanism
Stage II: stage of decompensation
Progressive decrease in tissue perfusion
Potentially reversible tissue injury occurs
Development of metabolic acidosis, electrolyte imbalances and renal insufficiency
Stage III: irreversible shock
Irreversible tissue injury and organ failure
Ultimately resulting in death )

29. Stage I: stage of compensation: Clinical findings include:
tachycardia ( a heart rate of >100 beats /minute
skin pallor due to vasoconstriction , reduced urine output
Stage II: stage of decompensation: clinical findings include:
hypotension , tachypnea and dyspnea
