Circulatory shock: life-threatening alteration
Abstract
In this infographic we find the definition of circulatory shock, in the same way, we read the causes of the condition, the characteristics to identify that the decrease in blood flow is being present and the stages in which it develops, recognizing that it can initially compensate to avoid damage, on the contrary, generate a vicious circle that endangers life. On the other hand, the types of shock that can be identified in patients are presented, breaking down what each type consists of. Finally, the infographic covers general treatments to restore circulatory function.
