A definition of SHOCK
 Global tissue hypoxia
 “global” implying systemically while
 “tissue hypoxia” implies inadequate oxygen
delivery/utilization


May be independent of, or even inversely proportional to
“perfusion”
Hypoxia ≠ Hypoxemia
Hinshaw-Cox Approach
 Hypovolemic
 Cardiogenic
 Obstructive
 Distributive
A Physiologic Approach
 Shock ≈ ↓ ḊO2

(inappropriate to V̇O2)
 ḊO2 = CO x CaO2
 CO= HR x SV
 SV ∫ Afterload, Preload and Contractility
 CaO2 = Hgb x SaO2 x 1.34 x (0.003 x PaO2)
So…
 ḊO2 = HR x (∫ Afterload, Preload and Contractility) x
Hgb x SaO2 x 1.34 x (0.003 x PaO2)
So…4 types of Shock
 Circulatory Hypoxia
 This is where Hinshaw-Cox categories really fit…
 Anemic Hypoxia (low hgb)
 Hypoxemic Hypoxia (low SaO2)
 And…
Cellular Hypoxia
 AKA cytopathic hypoxia or cytotoxic hypoxia
 Disutilization of oxygen at the cellular level (usually
mitochondrial) prompts anaerobic metabolism and
lactate production independent of O2 delivery.
 Examples: cyanide poisoning, sepsis or anything that
uncouples oxidative phosphorylation
Recognition of Shock
Physical Exam
 Shock Index= SBP/HR; the lower the quotient, the
“shockier” the patient
 Decreased Cap refill or pulses
 Skin exam
 “warm shock” vs “cold shock”
Recognition of Shock
Basic Labs
 Chem 7
 Low bicarb, high anion gap
 ABG
 Metabolic acidosis ± respiratory alkalosis
 VBG
 Low SvO2 (though may be high, especially in cellular
hypoxia)
 Lactate- elevated (though can be normal if shock is
well compensated)
Recognition of Shock:
PAC
 PAC, though rarely used in today’s Critical Care
environment, can be used to determine/narrow the
underlying pattern/cause of shock
Treatment of Shock
 ID and treat underlying cause WHILE
 Optimizing ‘Big 7’ (i.e. goal –directed)
 HR
 Preload
 Afterload
 Contractility
 Hgb
 SaO2
 ↓V̇O2
Decreasing Oxygen Consumption
 Control of fever
 Unloading respiratory muscles
 NIV vs Intubation
 Sedation
 Paralytics
Goal = Nl SvO2
 Vast majority of shock states respond to EARLY
optimization of balancing oxygen delivery and
consumption, BUT…
Exceptions to the rule
 The pattern of rising lactate despite normal (or even
more ominous, high) SvO2 frequently implicates three
clinical scenarios…
 Cellular hypoxia (? Role for steroids)
 DIC (0bstruction of the micro-vasculature does not
allow delivery of oxygenated blood to tissues on other
side) (? Role for rhAPC)
 Uncontrolled source of shock (typically ongoing
hemorrhage, infection, etc)
Hyperlactatemia
 Type A Classic- due to hypoxia and anaerobic metabolism
 Type B Drugs (metformin, HARRT, etc), Cancer, ETOHism,
HIV
 Type δ- encountered in short-gut syndrome with
overproduction of δ-isomer of lactate (not assayed by
typical lactate measurements clinically).
