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.

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].

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.

Vasoactive Drugs in Circulatory Shock

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2011
Abstract Shock occurs when failure of the cardiovascular system compromises tissue perfusion. When fluid administration fails to restore adequate arterial pressure and organ perfusion in patients with shock, therapy with vasoactive agents should be initiated.

Circulatory mechanisms of shock and their mediators

Critical Care Medicine, 1987
Traditional concepts of shock therapy have been based on conventional monitoring. However, the availability of invasive monitoring systems has provided the means to describe the patterns of oxygen transport in various acute life-threatening illnesses.

Understanding circulatory shock

Postgraduate Medicine, 1992
Circulatory shock comprises a group of complex circulatory syndromes that result from a variety of conditions. It alters the function of most organ systems and has very high mortality. Identification of the type of shock (hypovolemic, cardiogenic, vasogenic, or a combination) and optimal treatment are aided by hemodynamic monitoring, including ...

Nitric Oxide and Circulatory Shock

1998
Key discoveries in the past two decades have proved that the vascular endothelium is more than just a passive barrier between blood vessels and tissues, and have led to many important new concepts in vascular biology and pathophysiology.

The role of lysosomes in circulatory shock

Life Sciences, 1976
Abstract Lysosomes are sensitive to the stressful stimuli which develop in the shock states (i.e., ischemia, hypoxia, acidosis). As a result, lysosomal membranes become leaky and tissue lysosomes swell. These conditions are favorable for the leakage of lysosomal contents, largely acid hydrolases, into the cytoplasm of splanchnic cells, particularly ...
