Shock is a life-threatening condition that occurs when the body's blood pressure is too low to support the function of its organs. Shock can result in organ damage and even death. Shock can occur due to decreased blood volume, obstructions to blood flow through the heart and lungs, severe allergic reactions, severe infections, and damage to the nervous system.
