anaphylactic shock
Rapidly developing, systemic anaphylaxis that produces life-threatening acute airway obstruction followed by vascular collapse within minutes after exposure to an antigen.
cardiogenic shock
Failure of the heart to pump an adequate supply of blood and oxygen to body tissues
crystalloids
aqueous solutions of mineral salts or other water-soluble molecules
hypovolemic shock
Shock occurring when there is an insufficient amount of fluid in the circulatory system. Usually this is due to bleeding, diarrhea, or vomiting.
colloids
Colloids contain larger insoluble molecules, such as gelatin; blood itself is a colloid
circulatory shock
Failure of the cardiovascular system to provide body tissues with enough blood for proper functioning
neurogenic shock
A form of distributive shock due to decreased peripheral vascular resistance.

Damage to either the brain or the spinal cord inhibits transmission of neural stimuli to the arteries and arterioles, which reduces vasomotor tone.

The decreased peripheral resistance results in vasodilation and hypotension; cardiac output diminishes due to the altered distribution of blood volume.
septic shock
Hypotension and inadequate blood flow to organs, as the result of sepsis (the presence of pathogens in the bloodstream). The most common organisms are gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, but fungi and other organisms may also be responsible.
SIRS
A progressive state of systemic inflammation characterized by a white blood cell count greater than 12,000/mm3 or less than 4000/mm3, temperature greater than 38°C or less than 36°C, tachycardia, tachypnea, and decreased blood carbon dioxide levels. SIRS can begin with any serious illness or injury involving inflammation but is most often associated with systemic infection (sepsis) caused by gram-negative bacteria.
