Understanding Distributive Shock

In anticipation of some exciting new content where we take deep dives into shock physiology and treatment modalities, we wanted to wet appetites, prime engines and get any of our new listeners up to speed by rebooting some of our heavy hitters from Season 1.

We've already discussed how to identify shock, or how to assess a patient whom you are worried may be in shock... but what's next? Listen as Nick & Cyrus discuss the Pump, Pipe & Tank framework for determining the type of shock your patient is suffering from. In this episode we discuss the pathophysiology of the different types of shock, the tools you can use to help differentiate one type of shock from another, and scratch the surface on some initial treatment considerations.
