Paramedic Review: Pathophysiology of Shock

Think you know all you need to know about shock? Dr. Bill Young takes a deep dive into the diagnosis and treatment of shock from the pathophysiological perspective. Learn the “why” of how shock occurs and the “why” what we do during the treatment of shock has an impact on the patient’s survival. At the end of this presentation, the student will: 1. know the cellular processes that occur during shock. 2. understand how cellular death, during shock, leads to organ death 3. understand, from a pathophysiological perspective, how the treatment, or lack thereof, of shock changes the patient’s outcome.
