Critical care ultrasonography in circulatory shock
Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2017Purpose of review The objective was to define the role of ultrasound in the diagnosis and the management of circulatory shock by critical appraisal of the literature. Recent findings Assessment of any patient's hemodynamic profile based on clinical examination can be sufficient in ...

Prostaglandin metabolism during circulatory shock
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1977Abstract The rates of metabolic degradation and the patterns of metabolite formation of tritium-labeled prostaglandins E2 and F2α were assessed in vitro in tissues obtained from normal rabbits and from rabbits subjected to hemorrhagic or endotoxic shock. Normal rabbit tissues metabolized prostaglandin E2 at the following rates: renal cortex 479 ± 34,

Mechanical Ventilatory Support in Circulatory Shock
Critical Care Clinics, 1993Mechanical support of ventilation is associated with a number of hemodynamic consequences that result from direct and indirect hydrostatic phenomena, humoral effects, and changes in distribution of peripheral blood flow, particularly in patients with circulatory shock.

The Circulatory Defect of Septic Shock
1987Septic shock in man is generally characterized by a normal or mostly increased cardiac output (CO), a decreased systemic vascular resistance (SVR), a decreased arterio-mixed venous oxygen content difference \((Ca - \bar{v}{{O}_{2}})\) and elevated blood lactate levels [1–9].

Circulatory shock associated with purulent peritonitis
The American Journal of Surgery, 1981The relative roles of bacterial infection, fluid loss and myocardial failure were investigated in 24 patients in whom circulatory shock appeared as a complication of purulent peritonitis. The 13 acute survivors, including 6 hospital survivors, had strikingly lower initial plasma volumes and total blood volumes than the 11 patients who died. Differences

Shock is a common manifestation of many forms of critical illness. Although a patient with hypotension can have shock, shock is not necessarily defined by hypotension. That is, a patient can have a “normal” blood pressure and have shock concurrently.

Circulatory Shock: A Microcirculatory Defect
1985The pathophysiological defect which characterizes shock is that of perfusion failure in which blood flow to maintain the function of vital organ systems is critically reduced. As a clinical syndrome, it is characterized by protracted prostration, pallor, coldness and moistness of the skin, collapse of the superficial veins, alterations in pressure is ...

Altered Mitochondrial Metabolism in Circulatory Shock
1977Studies of mitochondrial function after circulatory shock, hemorrhagic or endotoxic, have revealed defective oxidative metabolism in several organs, such as the liver, kidney, and the brain (1,2,3). In this comment I would like to emphasize certain important aspects of these findings.
