Pharmacotherapy of circulatory shock

Disease-a-Month, 1987
The rubric "shock" encompasses a wide spectrum of critical events, which if untreated, result in morbidity and mortality. Understanding of the various forms of shock has evolved rapidly in the past 20 years as new laboratory and clinical observations have been published. In this article, the authors discuss the physiology of the shock state, review the

Blood viscosity and circulatory shock

Intensive Care Medicine, 1989
Rheological features of the whole blood and blood components are of potential importance for microcirculatory blood flow in circulatory shock. The relative contribution of vascular geometric and rheological factors to the resistance to blood flow in the various shock states in man, however, are hard to elucidate [73].

Pathophysiology and Treatment of Circulatory Shock

Critical Care Clinics, 1993
Circulatory shock is a syndrome characterized by imbalance between oxygen supply and demand. Myriad different mediators are responsible for the systemic manifestations of shock. The therapeutic approach requires initial interventions directed at increasing oxygen delivery followed by definitive therapy for the causative process.

Fluid Resuscitation in Circulatory Shock

Critical Care Clinics, 1993
Over the past century, the treatment of various forms of circulatory shock has included fluid resuscitation with either crystalloidal or colloidal solutions. Despite decades of investigation, there still is considerable controversy over the beneficial and adverse effects of each fluid type.
