Non-Traumatic Shock could

have origins that are cardiac,

immunologic, obstructive, or

resulting from dehydration.

Non-Traumatic Shock could

present with dizziness, pale,

cool, clammy skin, anemia,

and orthostatic hypotension.

Consider Rapid Transport

Fluid Bolus

1000mLNormal Saline

if lung sounds are clear.

If systolic BP < 80 mmHg and you suspect

anaphylactic, spinal, or septic shock:

Epinephrine Push-Dose Pressor

0.5-2 mL every 2-5 min

Maintain SBP 90 mmHg

Repeat Fluid Bolus

1000mLNormal Saline

if lung sounds are clear.

Still hypotensive

Epi Push-Dose Conversion

Once mixed properly to 10

mcg/mL, this is the conversion:

Every 2 Minutes

0.5mL q 2 min = 2.5 mcg/min

1mL q 2 min = 5 mcg/min

1.5mL q 2 min = 7.5 mcg/min

2mL q 2 min = 10 mcg/min

Every 5 Minutes

1mL q 5 min = 2 mcg/min

1.5mL q 5 min = 3 mcg/min

2mL q 5 min = 4 mcg/min

Repeat Fluid Bolus

1000mLNormal Saline

if lung sounds are clear.

Still hypotensive
