The following schematic appears Hypotension and Shock Algoritm Guideline for Physicians. This guideline outlines therapeutic algorithm for such hypovolemic shock, septic shock, obstructive shock, right ventricular myocard infarct, and cardiogenic shock. How to do a fluid challenge to maximize cardiac output related to hypotension and/or shock was also described in the following document. Complete explanation on Hypotension and Shock Algoritm G…

Cardiogenic Shock Diagnosis and Pathophysiology Diagram

pressure or pulmonary capillary wedge pressure >15 mm Hg and the cardiac index <2.2 L/min/m2. As seen in the pathophysiology diagram, it shows the LV dysfunction that lead to cardiogenic shock. Decreased coronary blood flow results in decreased cardiac output, this condition leads to hypotension and progressively more cardiac ischemia and dysfunction. It will result stuttering ischemia and infarction in left ventricular failure. Further de…
