Abstract

In a modern approach to treatment of shock, an adequate blood volume is primary, but certain adjuncts are necessary to facilitate its distribution to the body and to perfuse and oxygenate the tissues. Such adjunctive therapy is discussed.

Treatment should be directed at correcting the three basic pathophysiologic changes associated with the development of shock. These changes involve the vascular, intravascular and extravascular components.
