  • Title: Fluid therapy in shock.
    Author: Mandell DC, King LG.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract; 1998 May; 28(3):623-44. PubMed ID: 9597718.
    Abstract:
    The goal of treatment for all types of shock is the improvement of tissue perfusion and oxygenation. The mainstay of therapy for hypovolemic and septic shock is the expansion of the intravascular volume by fluid administration, including crystalloids, colloids, and blood products. Frequent physical examinations and monitoring enable the clinician to determine the adequacy of tissue oxygenation and thus the success of the fluid therapy.
