SHOCK RESUSCITATION

SHOCK RESUSCITATION

• Immediate resuscitation manoeuvres for patients presenting in - shock are to ensure a patent airway and adequate oxygenation and ventilation. Once ‘airway’ and ‘breathing’ are assessed and - controlled, attention is directed to cardiovascular resuscitation. Haemorrhagic shock resuscitation should proceed as damage - control resuscitation while bleeding continues (as discussed earlier). After bleeding is controlled, and for all other causes, shock resuscitation is guided by measures of tissue perfusion, as described in Monitoring . SHOCK RESUSCITATION
