  • Title: Resuscitation of traumatic shock: a hemodynamic review.
    Author: Cottingham CA.
    Journal: AACN Adv Crit Care; 2006; 17(3):317-26. PubMed ID: 16931927.
    Abstract:
    Shock, or tissue hypoperfusion, is a frequent complication from traumatic injury. Despite the etiology of the shock state, there is always some component of hypovolemia. The body's innate ability to compensate for impaired perfusion may mask clinical signs, leading to delays in treatment. This article presents an overview of these compensatory mechanisms and resuscitation strategies from the vantage point of routine hemodynamic monitoring.
