Shock is defined as inadequate tissue perfusion resulting in decreased oxygen delivery and buildup of waste, and can progress from early compensated stages to intermediate stages involving organ damage and late irreversible stages involving multiple organ failure. The document outlines the pathophysiology and stages of shock including effects on body systems, clinical markers, causes, and treatment focusing on restoring tissue perfusion through fluid resuscitation and management of the underlying cause.
DEFINITION
• Myxedema coma is a rare life-threatening condition.It is the decompensated state of severe hypothyroidism in whichthe patient is hypothermic and unconscious.The condition occurs most often among elderly women in the winter months and appears to be precipitated by cold.
• Myxedema coma, occasionally called myxedema crisis, is a rare life- threatening clinical condition that represents severe hypothyroidism with physiological decompensation. The condition usually occurs in patients with long-standing, undiagnosed hypothyroidism and is usually precipitated by infection, cerebrovascular disease, heart failure, trauma, or drug therapy.
• Myxedema is also used to describe the dermatologic changes that occur in hypothyroidism which refers to deposition of mucopolysaccharides in the dermis, which results in swelling of the affected area.
CARDIAC TAMPONADE ( Cardiac emergency) • Cardiac Tamponade is a life threatening complication caused by excessive accumulation of fluid in the pericardium. Or • Compression of all cardiac chambers due to excessive accumulation of pericardial fluid leading to compromised cardiac out put.

SHOCK SYNDROMESHOCK SYNDROME
• Shock is a condition in which the cardiovascular system
fails to perfuse tissues adequately
• An impaired cardiac pump, circulatory system, and/or
volume can lead to compromised blood flow to tissues
• Inadequate tissue perfusion can result in:
– generalized cellular hypoxia (starvation)
– widespread impairment of cellular metabolism
– tissue damage organ failure
– death

Report Back from SGO 2024: What’s the Latest in Cervical Cancer?bkling
Are you curious about what’s new in cervical cancer research or unsure what the findings mean? Join Dr. Emily Ko, a gynecologic oncologist at Penn Medicine, to learn about the latest updates from the Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) 2024 Annual Meeting on Women’s Cancer. Dr. Ko will discuss what the research presented at the conference means for you and answer your questions about the new developments.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
2. Definition
Shock is a state of inadequate perfusion, which does not
sustain the physiologic needs of organ tissues.
A physiological state characterized by a significant,
systemic reduction in tissue perfusion, resulting in decreased
tissue oxygen delivery and insufficient removal of cellular metabolic
products, resulting in tissue injury.
4. Pathophysiology
Alteration in hemodynamic results in a drop in arterial blood
pressure by one of these mechanisms:
• Decrease in cardiac output (ability of heart to supply adequate
circulation)
• Decrease in circulating blood volume
• Increase in size of vascular bed
8. Early reversible and compensatory shock
• Mean arterial pressure drops 10 -15 mmHg
• Decrease in circulating blood volume (25-35%) 1000ml
• Sympathetic nervous system stimulated; release of
catecholamine
9. Early reversible and compensatory shock
Findings
• Increase in heart rate and contractility
• Increase in peripheral vasoconstriction
• Circulation maintained, but can only be sustained short time
without harm to tissues
• Underlying cause of shock must be addressed and corrected or
will progress to next stage
10. Intermediate or progressive shock
• Further drop in MAP (20%)
• Increase in fluid loss (1800 – 25400 ml)
• Vasoconstriction continues and leads to oxygen deficiency
• Body switches to anaerobic metabolism forming lactic acid as a
waste product
11. Intermediate or progressive shock
Findings
• Body increases heart rate and vasoconstriction
• Heart and brain become hypoxic
• More severe effects on other tissues which become: ischemic
and anoxic
• State of acidosis with hyperkalemia develops
Needs rapid treatment
12. Refractory or irreversible shock
• Tissues are anoxic, cellular death widespread
• Even with restoration of blood pressure and fluid volume there is
too much damage to restore homeostasis of tissues
• Cellular death leads to tissue death; vital organs fail and death
occurs
14. Cardiovascular system
• Initially: slight tachycardia, normal blood pressure
• Progresses to weak, rapid pulse with dysrhythmias
• Progressive decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressures
with narrowing of pulse pressure; blood pressure becomes
inaudible
15. Respiratory system
• Initially: Increased respiratory rate, but gas exchange is
impaired; leads to anaerobic metabolism and development of
acidosis
• Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS): complication of
decreased lung perfusion
16. Gastrointestinal and Hepatic
• GI organs become ischemic, with blood circulation shunted to
heart and brain
Complications :
• Stress Ulcers
• Paralytic Ileus
• Altered liver metabolism: hypoglycemia, fat breakdown leads to
ketones and metabolic acidosis
17. • Neurologic system
Develops cerebral hypoxia
Restlessness initially, then altered level of consciousness,
lethargy, coma ,Thirsty from dehydration
• Renal
Decreased kidney perfusion leads to oliguria (urine output
< 0.5 ml/kg/hr)
• Skin
Skin: cool, pale, hypothermic
18. Causes of Shock [-]
• Severe or sudden blood loss
• Large drop in body fluids
• Myocardial infarction
• Major infections
• High spinal injuries
• Anaphylaxis
• Extreme heat or cold
21. Hypovolemic Shock
A medical or surgical condition in which rapid fluid loss
results in multiple organ failure due to inadequate circulating
volume and subsequent inadequate perfusion. Most often,
hypovolemic shock is secondary to rapid blood loss
(hemorrhagic shock).
22. SRUP
• Hemorrhage: Overt or occult
• Reduction in circulating volume
• Reduction in venous return and CO
• O2 supply-demand imbalance
• Lactic acidosis
• Reduction in venous oxygen saturation
• Non hemorrhagic hypovolemic
– Severe burns, vomiting and diarrhea
23. • Decreased preload->small ventricular end-diastolic volumes ->
inadequate cardiac generation of pressure and flow
• Causes:
-- bleeding: trauma, GI bleeding, ruptured aneurysms,
hemorrhagic pancreatitis
-- protracted vomiting or diarrhea
-- adrenal insufficiency; diabetes insipidus
-- dehydration
-- third spacing: intestinal obstruction, pancreatitis, cirrhosis
24.
25.
26. Cause
• Acute external blood loss secondary to penetrating trauma and severe GI
bleeding disorders are 2 common causes of hemorrhagic shock.
• Hemorrhagic shock can also result from significant acute internal blood
loss into the thoracic and abdominal cavities
• Two common causes of rapid internal blood loss are solid organ injury
and rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm.
• Hypovolemic shock can result from significant fluid (other than blood)
loss. Two examples of hypovolemic shock secondary to fluid loss include
refractory gastroenteritis and extensive burns
27. Pathophysiology:
• The human body responds to acute hemorrhage by activating
the following major physiologic systems:
• The hematologic
• Cardiovascular
• Renal
• Neuroendocrine systems.
28. The hematologic
• The hematologic system responds to an acute severe blood loss
by activating the coagulation cascade and contracting the
bleeding vessels (by means of local thromboxane A2 release).
• In addition, platelets are activated (also by means of local
thromboxane A2 release) and form an immature clot on the
bleeding source.
• The damaged vessel exposes collagen, which subsequently
causes fibrin deposition and stabilization of the clot.
• Approximately 24 hours are needed for complete clot fibrination
and mature formation.
29. Cardiovascular
• The cardiovascular system initially responds to hypovolemic
shock by increasing the heart rate, increasing myocardial
contractility, and constricting peripheral blood vessels.
• This response occurs secondary to an increased release of
norepinephrine and decreased baseline vagal tone (regulated
by the baroreceptors in the carotid arch, aortic arch, left atrium,
and pulmonary vessels).
• The cardiovascular system also responds by redistributing
blood to the brain, heart, and kidneys and away from skin,
muscle, and GI tract.
30. Renal
• The renal system responds to hemorrhagic shock by stimulating an
increase in renin secretion from the juxtaglomerular apparatus.
• Renin converts angiotensinogen to angiotensin I, which subsequently is
converted to angiotensin II by the lungs and liver
• Angiotensin II has 2 main effects, both of which help to reverse
hemorrhagic shock, vasoconstriction of arteriolar smooth muscle, and
stimulation of aldosterone secretion by the adrenal cortex.
• Aldosterone is responsible for active sodium reabsorption and
subsequent water conservation.
31. Neuroendocrine systems
• The neuroendocrine system responds to hemorrhagic shock by
causing an increase in circulating antidiuretic hormone (ADH).
• ADH is released from the posterior pituitary gland in response to
a decrease in BP (as detected by baroreceptors) and a
decrease in the sodium concentration (as detected by
osmoreceptors).
• ADH indirectly leads to an increased reabsorption of water and
salt (NaCl) by the distal tubule, the collecting ducts, and the
loop of Henle.
32. Clinical Signs of Acute Hemorrhagic
Shock
Parameter Class I Class II Class III Class IV
Blood loss (%) <15 15-30 30-40 >40
Blood loss (ml) <750 750-1500 1500-2000 >2000
Heart rate (bpm) <100 >100 >120 >140
Blood pressure Normal Orthostatic Hypotension Severe hypotension
CNS symptom Normal Anxious Confused Obtunded
33. Signs of Shock
• Cold, clammy and pale skin
• Rapid, weak pulse
• Shallow, rapid breathing
• Oliguria
• Reduction in MAP
• Cyanosis
• Loss of consciousness
34. The 4 areas in which life-threatening
hemorrhage can occur are as follows: chest,
abdomen, thighs, and outside the body.
35. • The chest should be auscultated for decreased breath
sounds, because life-threatening hemorrhage can occur
from myocardial, vessel, or lung laceration
• The abdomen should be examined for tenderness or
distension, which may indicate intraabdominal injury
36. • The thighs should be checked for deformities or
enlargement (signs of femoral fracture and bleeding into
the thigh).
• The patient's entire body should then be checked for
other external bleeding
38. Treatment of Shock
**Increase tissue perfusion and oxygenation status
• Maintain airway
• Control bleeding
• Baseline vital signs
• Level of consciousness
39. Treatment of Shock
• Positioning
• ABCD approach
• Fluid therapy
• Drug therapy
• Keep patient at normal temperature
– Prevent hypothermia
– Minimize effect of shock
• On-going assessment - every 10-15 minutes
40. • Crystalloid solutions for intravascular volume replenishment are
typically isotonic (e.g. 0.9% saline or Ringer's lactate [RL]).
• Both 0.9% saline and RL are equally effective; RL may be
preferred in hemorrhagic shock because it somewhat minimizes
acidosis.
41. • Colloid solutions (e.g. hydroxyethyl starch, albumin, dextrans)
are also effective for volume replacement during major
hemorrhage.
• Despite theoretical benefits over crystalloid, no differences in
survival have been proven.
• Both dextrans and hydroxyethyl starch adversely affect
coagulation when > 1.5 L is given.
42. • Blood typically is administered as packed RBCs, which should
be cross-matched, but in an urgent situation, 1 to 2 units of type
O Rh-negative blood is an acceptable alternative.
• When > 1 to 2 units are transfused (e.g. in major trauma), blood
is warmed to 37° C.
• Patients receiving > 8 to 10 units may require replacement of
clotting factors with infusion of fresh frozen plasma or
cryoprecipitate and platelet transfusion
43. Route and Rate of Administration
• Standard, large (eg, 14- to 16-gauge) peripheral IV catheters are
adequate for most fluid resuscitation.
• With infusion pump they typically allow infusion of 1 L of
crystalloid in 10 to 15 min and 1 unit of packed RBCs in 20 min.
44. • For patients at risk of exsanguination, a large (eg, 8.5 French)
central venous catheter provides more rapid infusion rates; a
pressure infusion device can infuse 1 unit packed RBCs in < 5
min.
45. • Patients in shock typically require and tolerate infusion at the
maximum rate. Adults are given 1 L of crystalloid (20 mL/kg in
children) or, in hemorrhagic shock, 5 to 10 mL/kg of colloid or
packed RBCs, and the patient is reassessed.
• An exception is a patient with cardiogenic shock who typically
does not require large volume infusion.
47. Invasive monitoring
• Essential in the definitive treatment
• Direct arterial pressure
• Central venous pressure
• Cardiac output
48. • The actual endpoint of fluid administration in shock is
normalization of DO2.
• However, this parameter is not often measured directly.
Surrogate endpoints include clinical indicators of end organ
perfusion and measurements of preload.
• Adequate end organ perfusion is best indicated by urine output
of > 0.5 to 1 mL/kg/h
49. • Heart rate, mental status, and capillary refill may be affected by
the underlying disease process and are less reliable markers.
• Because of compensatory vasoconstriction, mean arterial
pressure (MAP) is only a rough guideline; organ hypoperfusion
may be present despite apparently normal values
50. • Because urine output does not provide a minute-to-minute
indication, measures of preload may be helpful in guiding fluid
resuscitation for critically ill patients
• Central venous pressure (CVP) is the mean pressure in the
superior vena cava, reflecting right ventricular end-diastolic
pressure or preload.
51. • Normal CVP ranges from 2 to 7 mm Hg (3 to 9 cm H20). A sick
or injured patient with a CVP < 3 mm Hg is presumed to be
volume depleted and may be given fluids with relative safety.
53. Criteria for Four Categories of the Systemic
Inflammatory Response Syndrome
1. Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS)
Two or more of the following:
– Temperature (core) >38°C or <36°C
– Heart rate >90 beats/min
– Respiratory rate of >20 breaths/min for patients spontaneously ventilating or a
PaCO2 <32 mm Hg
– White blood cell count >12,000 cells/mm3 or <4000 cells/mm3 or >10% immature
(band) cells in the peripheral blood smear
54. Criteria for Four Categories of the Systemic
Inflammatory Response Syndrome
2. Sepsis
Same criteria as for SIRS but with a clearly established focus of infection
3. Severe Sepsis
Sepsis associated with organ dysfunction and hypoperfusion
Indicators of hypoperfusion:
- Systolic blood pressure <90 mmHg
- > 40 mmHg fall from normal systolic blood pressure
- Lactic acidemia
- Oliguria
- Acute mental status changes
55. Phases of Septic Shock
• Warm Phase (early): skin flushed, warm due to vasodilatation
• Cold Phase (late): skin cool due to fluid deficit with shock
57. Risk factors
– Diabetes
– Diseases of the genitourinary system, biliary system, or intestinal system
– Immunocompromised host such as AIDS , Leukemia , steroid medications
– Indwelling catheters
– Recent surgery or medical procedure
58. Septic Shock in trauma patients
• Develops 2 - 5 days after injury occurs
• Carries a poor prognosis
• Assess for:
– Penetrating abdominal injuries
– Signs of infection
– Warm pink skin and dry elevated body temperature
– Tachycardia
– Wide pulse pressures
62. Anaphylactic shock
• DEFINITION
– Anaphylaxis is a sudden-onset, life-threatening type I hypersensitivity
• Anaphylaxis results from sudden release into the systemic circulation of histamine,
tryptase, and other inflammatory mediators from basophiles and mast cells.
65. Management of anaphylaxis
• Assessment of airway, breathing, circulation
• Epinephrine is the drug of choice
– IM every 5 to 15 minutes to control symptoms and blood pressure
• Oxygen administration
• Fluid replacement
– Normal saline is preferred, because lactated Ringers may contribute to metabolic
acidosis
66. • Vasopressors
– should be administered if epinephrine injections fail to alleviate hypotension
– Dopamine increases the force and rate of myocardial contractions while
maintaining or enhancing renal and mesenteric blood flow
• Antihistamines
• Inhaled B2 agonists
• Corticosteroids
68. Anaphylactic Shock
• Rapid onset
• Primary systems:
– Cardiovascular, Respiratory
– Skin, Gastrointestinal, coagulation
• Face, pharynx and laryngeal oedema
• Adrenaline is life saving
69. Anaphylactic Shock
• Diffuse vasodilatation
• Increase size of vascular bed
• Blood is trapped in small vessels and viscera
• Temporary loss in total circulatory volume
• Sudden severe allergic reaction to:
– Drugs, Toxins, Foods, Plants
70. Symptoms
• Apprehension and flushing
• Wheezing or shortness of breath & cough
• Rapid, weak pulse
• Cyanosis
• Generalized itching or burning
• Watering and itching of the eyes
• Hypotension
• Coma
71. Evaluation of Shock
• Internal or external hemorrhage
• Underlying cardiac problems
• Sepsis
• Trauma to spine cord
• Contact with known allergic substance
• Determine amount of blood loss
• How long has casualty been bleeding?
78. Obstructive Shock
•Aortic stenosis
•Resistance to systolic ejection causes decreased cardiac function
•Chest pain with syncope
•Systolic ejection murmur
•Diagnosed with echo
•Rx: Valve surgery
