  2. Hypotension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypotension

    Hypotension, also known as low blood pressure, is a cardiovascular condition characterized by abnormally reduced blood pressure. [1] Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps out blood [2] and is indicated by two numbers, the systolic blood pressure (the top number) and the diastolic blood pressure (the bottom number), which are the ...

  3. Permissive hypotension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permissive_hypotension

    Permissive hypotension or hypotensive resuscitation [1] is the use of restrictive fluid therapy, specifically in the trauma patient, that increases systemic blood pressure without reaching normotension (normal blood pressures). The goal blood pressure for these patients is a mean arterial pressure of 40-50 mmHg or systolic blood pressure of ...

  5. Neurogenic shock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurogenic_shock

    Neurogenic shock is a distributive type of shock resulting in hypotension (low blood pressure), often with bradycardia (slowed heart rate), caused by disruption of autonomic nervous system pathways. [1] It can occur after damage to the central nervous system, such as spinal cord injury and traumatic brain injury.

  6. Obstructive shock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obstructive_shock

    Low blood pressure and tachycardia are often seen in shock. Other symptoms depend on the underlying cause. [4] The physiology of obstructive shock is similar to cardiogenic shock. In both types, the heart's output of blood (cardiac output) is decreased. This causes a back-up of blood into the veins entering the right atrium. [3]

  7. Hypovolemic shock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypovolemic_shock

    Heart rate and respiratory rate become elevated (100 BPM to 120 BPM, 20 RR to 24 RR). Pulse pressure begins to narrow, but systolic blood pressure may be unchanged to slightly decreased. [3] Class 3: Volume loss from 30% to 40% of total blood volume, from 1500 mL to 2000 mL. A significant drop in blood pressure and changes in mental status ...

  9. Non-pharmacological intervention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-pharmacological...

    If the blood pressure is high enough to justify immediate use of medications, lifestyle changes are still recommended in conjunction. Dietary changes shown to reduce blood pressure include diets containing low amounts of sodium, [10] [11] the DASH diet (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension), [12] vegetarian diets, [13] and green tea consumption.
