Explain any three types of shocks.
Answers
2. hypovolemic shock(caused by too little blood volume)
3. anaphylactic shock(caused by allergic reaction)
4. septic shock(due to infection)

✬ What is a Shock?
The heart pumps blood through the blood vessels, carrying oxygen around the body. The heart and blood vessels together form the circulatory system. Circulatory system is a medical condition which develops when insufficient oxygen reaches the tissues because the circulatory system has failed.
✬ The circulatory system may fail in the following two ways :
• The heart pump isn't working sufficiently well, or stops.
• Insufficient fluid (blood or other blood fluids) is circulating around the body.
Circulatory shock is a life-threatening condition which needs urgent treatment.
➡ Hypovolemic shock
➡ Cardiogenic shock
➡ Rapid swallow breathing
➡ Anaphylactic shock
➡ Septic Shock
➡ Electric Shock
Hypovolemic Shock :-
Decrease in blood and plasma volume (bleeding internal or external features of burns).
Cardiogenic Shock :-
Weakness of the heart with inablity to pump blood (myocardial infraction, ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation).
Neurogenic Shock :-
Failure of CNS to control the vascular system (pain, fear or spinal injuiry).
Anaphylactic Shock
It is called allergic due to insect stings or antibiotics.
Septic Shock :-
Due to micro-organisms and infection.
Electric Shock :-
Person exposed electric shock heel nausea or may become unconscious the high electric shock may lead to cardiac arrest or respiratory failure and burns may appear on victim's body.
