  • Title: Cell damage after shock.
    Author: Barber AE, Shires GT.
    Journal: New Horiz; 1996 May; 4(2):161-7. PubMed ID: 8774792.
    Abstract:
    Hypoperfusion of tissue results in cell membrane dysfunction. Normally, the cell membrane serves to preserve the milieu interior through the maintenance of a negative charge or membrane potential. Maintenance of a negative membrane potential across the cell membrane serves as a semipermeable barrier, preserving the balance of intra- and extracellular electrolytes and water.
