What is Shock?
Shock is a life-threatening condition that happens when the body's blood pressure is too low to support its organs' function. Shock can cause organ damage and even death. It 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.
Treatment of Shock
Shock requires emergency treatment, usually in a hospital. Treatment typically includes large amounts of fluids given through a blood vessel, oxygen, and addressing the cause of shock.
