Treatment of shock consists of identifying and reversing the underlying pathogenesis and correcting hemodynamic abnormalities. Vasopressors should be initiated in refractory hypotension despite adequate fluid and/or blood product resuscitation. In low cardiac output states, the use of an inotropic agent should be considered.  INTRODUCTION Shock is characterized by inadequate tissue perfusion, resulting in life-threatening impairment of oxygen and nutrient delivery. The development of shock is associated with hypotension which ultimately results in multi-organ system failure  ADDIN EN.CITE Hollenberg232317Hollenberg, S.

Some causes of shock in the trauma and general surgery patient population include cardiac dysfunction, blood loss, autonomic dysregulation, and sepsis. The treatment of shock consists of identifying and reversing the underlying pathogenesis and correcting hemodynamic abnormalities. Fluid and/or blood product resuscitation should be the initial management for hypotension. Vasopressors should be initiated in those patients with refractory hypotension despite adequate resuscitation. In low cardiac output states, an inotrope should be considered. Adrenal Insufficiency of Critical Illness (Endocrine Shock) Acute adrenal insufficiency of critical illness (AICI) is a common and largely unrecognized disorder in critically ill patients with a reported incidence of up to 77%  ADDIN EN.CITE Marik2002252517Marik, P.

The most common features of AICI are hypotension refractory to fluids and vasopressors and/or delayed weaning from mechanical ventilation. However, other common signs and symptoms include unexplained fever, electrolyte abnormalities (e.g. hypoglycemia, hyponatremia, hyperkalemia), unexplained mental status changes, and neutropenia or mild eosinophilia. Traditionally, AICI has been diagnosed using an adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) test; however, evidence suggests modifications from standard testing are needed  ADDIN EN.CITE Annane2003292917Annane, D.Time for a consensus definition of corticosteroid insufficiency in critically ill patientsCrit Care MedCritical care medicineCrit Care MedCritical care medicineCrit Care MedCritical care medicine1868-9316Adrenal Cortex Function Tests/*standardsAdrenal Insufficiency/*diagnosis/etiologyHumansHydrocortisone/bloodReference StandardsSepsis/*complications2003Jun0090-3493 (Print) 0090-3493 (Linking)12794436http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&dopt=Citation&list_uids=12794436 eng(3). In the presence of severe endogenous stress (e.g. hypotension, shock, sepsis), obtaining a cortisol level can be considered superior to the traditional ACTH test. A random serum cortisol level < 20 mcg/dL is considered sufficient to diagnose AICI in suspected patients.

The use of an intra-arterial catheter is helpful in managing patients in cardiogenic shock. Dopamine has traditionally been the drug of choice, owing to its vasopressor and inotropic activity. Norepinephrine was preferred over dopamine in patients with more severe hypotension due to its more potent vasoconstriction. However, recent literature showing a potential increase in mortality with dopamine over norepinephrine has questioned the use of dopamine as a first line agent in cardiogenic shock  ADDIN EN.CITE De Backer3317De Backer, D.Biston, P.Devriendt, J.Madl, C.Chochrad, D.Aldecoa, C.Brasseur, A.Defrance, P.Gottignies, P.Vincent, J.

Both dopamine and norepinephrine can cause increased myocardial oxygen demand and may aggravate ischemia. This can lead to arrhythmias making it important to titrate to the lowest dose needed to improve tissue perfusion. For patients who are in a low output cardiogenic shock dobutamine may be added to optimize cardiac output (CO). However, dobutamine can cause vasodilation; therefore, its use should be in patients with less severe hypotension or in combination with a vasopressor to improve cardiac output (CO) in severe hypotension  ADDIN EN.CITE Antman2004272717Antman, E.

An alternative endpoint is titrating to a MAP that provides adequate end-organ perfusion (e.g. maintaining urine output, optimizing intra-abdominal perfusion pressure) Role of Vasopressors and Inotropes in the Management of Shock At the point where patients are adequately resuscitated yet remain hypotensive the initiation of vasopressors may be required to achieve the desired MAP. Selection of a vasopressor is determined by the cause of shock and the desired therapeutic activity targeting the underlying pathogenesis. Alpha1 receptor agonists work on arterial smooth muscle cells to cause vasoconstriction, thereby increasing SVR. Beta1 receptor agonists stimulate myocardial cells enhancing myocardial contractility and chronotropy. Norepinephrine has a stronger affinity for alpha1 receptors compared to beta1 receptors  ADDIN EN.CITE Overgaard2008303017Overgaard, C.

Epinephrine has similar affinity to alpha1 receptors as norepinephrine but has more beta1 activity. Dopamines activity on alpha1 and beta1 receptors is dependent on the dose, with lower doses having more beta1 activity and higher doses more alpha1 activity. Phenylephrine is a pure alpha agonist; however, its activity on alpha1 receptors is not a potent as norepinephrine. Vasopressin augments the effects of other vasopressor agents and is most commonly used for this mechanism at doses of 0.03 to 0.04 units/min  ADDIN EN.CITE Mutlu2004111117Mutlu, G.

Vasopressin also targets V1 receptors in the vascular smooth muscle leading to vasoconstriction of peripheral arterial beds. Due to the cardiac ischemia associated with higher doses, vasopressin is generally not used at doses greater than 0.04 units/min. Dobutamine is a synthetic catecholamine with strong affinity for both beta1 and beta2 receptors in a 3:1 ratio. It exerts its effects primarily through stimulation of cardiac beta1 receptors, resulting in potent inotropic activity with weaker chronotropic activity. On vascular smooth muscles, dobutamine (at lower doses) can decrease SVR as a result of reflex vasodilation and beta2 receptor activation leading to significant hypotension  ADDIN EN.CITE Overgaard2008303017Overgaard, C.

For patients with a SBP of 70-100 mmHg, dobutamine is recommended in the absence of shock and dopamine if shock is present. Norepinephrine is recommended when SBP is < 70 mmHg. (Class II) However, the results of a recent multicenter, randomized trial challenge the recommendation of dopamine as a first line vasopressor agent over norepinephrine in cardiogenic shock patients.

Once predetermined maximum doses of the study agents were reached, open labeled vasopressor usage was permitted. If needed, inotropic agents could be initiated to increase cardiac output.

Norepinephrine is a more potent alpha1 agonist than dopamine and may be more effective at treating hypotension in patients with septic shock. Dopamine may be particularly useful in patients with compromised systolic function but causes more tachycardia and may be more arrhythmogenic. Animal and human studies do suggest some advantages of norepinephrine and dopamine over epinephrine and phenylephrine. Therefore, epinephrine, phenylephrine, and vasopressin should not be administered as the initial vasopressors in septic shock. There has been no clinical evidence that epinephrine results in worse outcomes. Therefore, epinephrine should be used as the first alternative agent in septic shock when blood pressure is poorly responsive to norepinephrine or dopamine. Vasopressin (0.03-0.04 units/min only) may be added to norepinephrine to optimize the therapeutic efficacy of norepinephrine.

From a cohort of septic shock patients it was found that the use of norepinephrine to provide hemodynamic support was strongly related to a favorable outcome and considered a protective factor leading to decreased mortality. Mortality on day 7 and 28 and at hospital discharge was statistically significantly lower in those patients who received norepinephrine. Use of high-dose dopamine and epinephrine did not significantly influence outcomes.

Dopamine was titrated to a maximum dose of 20 g/kg/min and norepinephrine to a maximum of 0.19 g/kg/min. Once these maximum doses were achieved, open-label vasopressors could be added. There was no significant difference in 28-day mortality among the two groups. A subgroup analysis showed that in septic shock patients, specifically, there was no difference in mortality rates. There were more arrhythmic events in the dopamine group. More patients in the dopamine group did require open-label norepinephrine; however, the dose of norepinephrine used in both groups was similar.

They are intended to serve as a general statement regarding appropriate patient care practices based upon the available medical literature and clinical expertise at the time of development. They should not be considered to be accepted protocol or policy, nor are intended to replace clinical judgment or dictate care of individual patients. EVIDENCE DEFINITIONS Class I: Prospective randomized controlled trial. Class II: Prospective clinical study or retrospective analysis of reliable data. Includes observational, cohort, prevalence, or case control studies. Class III: Retrospective study. Includes database or registry reviews, large series of case reports, expert opinion. Technology assessment: A technology study which does not lend itself to classification in the above-mentioned format. Devices are evaluated in terms of their accuracy, reliability, therapeutic potential, or cost effectiveness. LEVEL OF RECOMMENDATION DEFINITIONS Level 1: Convincingly justifiable based on available scientific information alone. Usually based on Class I data or strong Class II evidence if randomized testing is inappropriate. Conversely, low quality or contradictory Class I data may be insufficient to support a Level I recommendation. Level 2: Reasonably justifiable based on available scientific evidence and strongly supported by expert opinion. Usually supported by Class II data or a preponderance of Class III evidence. Level 3: Supported by available data, but scientific evidence is lacking. Generally supported by Class III data. Useful for educational purposes and in guiding future clinical research.  PAGE 1 Approved 04/19/2011  PAGE 2 Approved 04/19/2011 What do you mean by the vasopressin having the equivalent effect to NE why would you add it? RECOMMENDATIONS (continued) Septic Shock (continued) Level 2 Dobutamine may be initiated in combination with norepinephrine in patients with myocardial dysfunction (i.e. elevated cardiac filling pressure, low cardiac output). Level 3 None Neurogenic Shock Level 1 Due to the physiologic nature of neurogenic shock, vasopressors may be initiated earlier to avoid volume overload. Level 2 None Level 3 Norepinephrine should be first line agent once vasopressors are indicated. Phenylephrine should be avoided in most patients due to unopposed alpha activity that can result in reflex bradycardia; further worsening spinal cord injury (SCI) associated bradycardia. Cardiogenic Shock Level 1 Vasopressors and/or inotropes may be initiated earlier in cardiogenic shock with clinical evidence of volume overload. Level 2 In low output cardiogenic shock, dobutamine may be initiated in combination with norepinephrine. Level 3 None Adrenal Insufficiency of Critical Illness (Distributive / Endocrine Shock) See Adrenal Insufficiency of Critical Illness evidence-based medicine guideline. Level 1 Adrenal insufficiency of critical illness (AICI) should be suspected in high-risk critically ill patients with a random serum cortisol level < 20 mcg/dL. Level 2 Consider AICI and obtain a serum cortisol level in any critically ill patient who demonstrates hypotension, refractory shock, hypoglycemia, persistent systemic inflammation, and/or marked eosinophilia. When AICI is present, steroid replacement should be initiated: Hydrocortisone 50 mg IV q 6 hrs OR 100 mg IV Q 8 hrs Fludrocortisone 50 mcg PO daily x 7 days Level 3 '(01273 4 8 X        ǽǽǽǽǽǯ쎀si_h98FOJQJ^JhPxOJQJ^Jh)jhPxOJQJ^JjhNUmHnHuhN9jh+$hUcHdhdhdhzmHnHuhh h+$OJQJ^JhK3BOJQJ^JhoOJQJ^Jh)jhoOJQJ^Jjhh UmHnHuhohr hrCJ h CJ ()1    i#j#|#MM$a$gdn_$a$gdn_I$Eƀ dFa$gdh $a$gdo$a$gdh $a$  stwxyz~^]cex{µ|rhrh^hThFjhc~?OJQJU^Jh"1OJQJ^JhC#OJQJ^JhpDOJQJ^Jh4oOJQJ^Jh 9h2O56OJQJ^JhOJQJ^JhoOJQJ^JhPxOJQJ^Jh#Ue5OJQJ^JhXh#UeOJQJ^Jhn_5OJQJ^Jh98FOJQJ^Jh98Fhc~?OJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^J!jh98Fhc~?OJQJU^J25abcdezGZdR"S"V"W"X"""h#ǽw݁mhrOJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^Jh~OJQJ^JhrOJQJ^Jh"1OJQJ^JhAKOJQJ^JhC#OJQJ^Jh3OJQJ^JhpDOJQJ^Jhc~?5OJQJ^JhpD5OJQJ^Jh98FOJQJ^Jhc~?OJQJ^Jjhc~?OJQJU^J%h#i#j#|#$$%$&$*****J+L+X+]+t+u+v+526292:2;2H2K222222222223333633333ĶΘΘĶΎΎ΄ΎΎΎΎ΄zhOJQJ^Jhw2OJQJ^Jh$ QOJQJ^Jh@]OJQJ^Jhc~?OJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^Jjhc~?OJQJU^Jh98FOJQJ^Jh.OJQJ^Jh 9hMP56OJQJ^Jh2O6OJQJ^Jh~h2OOJQJ^J,33142434o<p<s<t<u<v<w<<V======>>>P>R>w>|>>>>vMwM}M~MMMMM춬vfh 9hPx56OJQJ^JhMP6OJQJ^Jhph.OJQJ^Jh/K]OJQJ^Jh>OJQJ^JhOJQJ^JhNXOJQJ^Jh.OJQJ^Jhc~?OJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^Jjhc~?OJQJU^Jh98FOJQJ^Jhw2OJQJ^JhoOJQJ^J$MMQRd89Gtu89:LM"+#+4+?:@: $7$8$H$a$gdn_$a$gdn_$a$gdn_M$N%N&N}W~WWWWWjXkXlXQ_R_U_V_W_```*j+j.j/j0j2j8jjjikjkkk_r`rcrdrerr ssss%{&{*{+{,{*|+|,|IJNOPRSʿhOJQJ^Jh]"OJQJ^JhoOJQJ^JhyhPxOJQJ^JhPx5OJQJ^Jhc~?OJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^Jjhc~?OJQJU^Jh98FOJQJ^JhPxOJQJ^J9Sdބ߄‹ƋNjȋɋʋ؋܋!et’Òޒ!"#>?CDEFGЙљҙ˷㣙˷˷فjhm OJQJU^Jh/K]OJQJ^Jh]"OJQJ^JhOJQJ^JhPxOJQJ^Jh16OJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^Jjh16OJQJU^Jh98FOJQJ^Jh2hPxOJQJ^Jh 9hPx56OJQJ^J2=Tghlmnopstɨըب Gvz}ݱƱММƒЅ{nhhPxOJQJ^JhzOJQJ^Jh2hzOJQJ^Jh,RwOJQJ^Jh7OJQJ^Jhm 5OJQJ^JhPx5OJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^JhPxOJQJ^Jh2hPxOJQJ^Jh98FOJQJ^Jhm OJQJ^Jjhm OJQJU^J(~MNO015679GжѶ ST68abcǺ麪霺hhPx5OJQJ^JhhzEOJQJ^JhhfS5OJQJ^JhhPx56OJQJ^JhhPxOJQJ^Jhm OJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^Jjhm OJQJU^Jh98FOJQJ^JhhzOJQJ^J.23789:;&'25DOstuϻϻݭxjZhh?56OJQJ^JhhPx6OJQJ^JhhPx5OJQJ^JhhOJQJ^JhhqcOJQJ^JhhzOJQJ^Jhhz5OJQJ^Jhm OJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^Jjhm OJQJU^Jh98FOJQJ^JhhPxOJQJ^Jhm 5OJQJ^JZ[]OP övh^hh4OJQJ^Jjhm OJQJU^Jh98FOJQJ^JhKYOJQJ^Jh2hPxH*OJQJ^JhqOJQJ^JhzEOJQJ^JhPxOJQJ^Jh2hPxOJQJ^JhhPxOJQJ^JhhPx56OJQJ^Jhh?56OJQJ^Jhh]56OJQJ^J CDlmvw56eqxyԸԸԸԮԸԸԸԤ|ޚooh'fhPxOJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^Jh sOJQJ^Jh)bOJQJ^Jh\OJQJ^JhS>OJQJ^JhOJQJ^Jh2hPxH*OJQJ^Jh2hKYH*OJQJ^JhPxOJQJ^Jh98FOJQJ^Jjhm OJQJU^Jhm OJQJ^J) IPfpyHTUV`gj ķxjxjx`V`xjx`x`xLhJOJQJ^JhzOJQJ^JhVOJQJ^Jh]h]H*OJQJ^Jh]OJQJ^Jhm OJQJ^JhiOJQJ^JhOJQJ^Jh)bOJQJ^Jhth)bOJQJ^Jhthm OJQJ^Jhm 5OJQJ^Jh)b5OJQJ^JhS>OJQJ^Jh'fhPxOJQJ^Jh'fhPxH*OJQJ^J !5>XYZ0156789:MŻűӪwmw`SFhN56OJQJ^Jh7e56OJQJ^Jh.ihtOJQJ^Jh @ OJQJ^Jh.ih.iOJQJ^Jh.ihdOJQJ^Jht56OJQJ^JhrhCh=1: hr;hr;hdOJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^JjhdOJQJU^Jh98FOJQJ^JhzOJQJ^JhJOJQJ^JhJhJH*OJQJ^Jb c g h i j k y |              E F G EFθθޢ~sh3OJQJ\^JhOJQJ\^JhNOJQJ\^JhhOJQJ\^JhOJQJ\^JhQ+JOJQJ\^JhdOJQJ\^Jh4OJQJ\^JjhdOJQJU\^Jh98FOJQJ\^Jh@]OJQJ\^JhC7LOJQJ\^J-FP(kl#.pqɿɵ~tjt`VLjhi>9OJQJ^Jh.3fOJQJ^JhhOJQJ^JhimOJQJ^JhjOJQJ^Jh 5OJQJ^JhdOJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^JjhdOJQJU^Jh98FOJQJ^Jh3OJQJ^JhOJQJ^Jh@OJQJ^Jh_<OJQJ\^Jh3OJQJ\^Jh3OJQJ\^JhP[OJQJ\^J;<oqrz|   # u    )))))))))*6*ʶvllbXhxOJQJ^JhNOJQJ^JhdOJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^JjhdOJQJU^Jh98FOJQJ^JhnOJQJ^JhD*OJQJ^Jh~OJQJ^JhhOJQJ^JheOJQJ^JhH$OJQJ^Jhimhim6OJQJ^JhimOJQJ^Jhi>9OJQJ^Jh1TOJQJ^J 6*Z*b*i*** ++!+"+#+4++++22222226393333333339999999ξuukkkauuhNOJQJ^JhOJQJ^JhdOJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^JjhdOJQJU^JhR!OJQJ^JhVhPxOJQJ^JhhhPx56OJQJ^Jh2hPx56OJQJ^JhD*OJQJ^JhH$OJQJ^JheOJQJ^JhxOJQJ^JhjtOJQJ^J&9:::>:?:@:L:M:i:m:::::GGGGGGGGŵtht\tPDh7.|OJPJQJ^JhP[OJPJQJ^JhdOJPJQJ^Jh4OJPJQJ^JjhdOJPJQJU^JhR!OJPJQJ^JhA[OJPJQJ^JhPxOJPJQJ^JhPx56OJQJ^JhhhPx56OJQJ^Jh2hPx56OJQJ^JhVhPxOJQJ^JhOJQJ^JhPxOJQJ^JhH$OJQJ^J@:M:'K(K.T/Tp_q_ssss6t8tBtftptt $$Ifa$gd ]VgdgdNgdPxI$Eƀta$gdn_$a$gdn_GGGHHHIIJJJJJ$K&K'K(KKKKZR[R_R`RaRbRcRR橠Ђtjt`tRGhd5OJQJ^Jh6hPx5OJQJ^JhdOJQJ^Jh4OJQJ^JjhdOJQJU^JhR!OJQJ^JhdhPxOJQJ^J hwih/hhh/hPJh/hh/hOJPJQJ^JhdOJPJQJ^JhNOJPJQJ^JhPxOJQJ^Jh7.|OJPJQJ^JhPxOJPJQJ^JhH*OJPJQJ^JRRRR$S/Sx-!!

RECOMMENDATIONS All shock states Level 1 Vasopressors should only be initiated with/after adequate resuscitation is provided with crystalloids, colloids, and/or blood products. Hemorrhagic Shock Level 1 None Level 2 Vasopressors are not recommended in the initial stabilization of hemorrhagic shock. Permissive hypotension may be employed until bleeding is controlled in patients requiring emergent surgical intervention. Level 3 If hypotension persists despite adequate blood and fluid resuscitation and surgical intervention, consider other etiologies for shock and an appropriate vasopressor. Septic Shock Level 1 Low-dose dopamine should not be used for renal protective effects. Level 2 Maintain mean arterial pressure (MAP) e" 65 mmHg or as needed to achieve adequate end-organ perfusion (e.g. cerebral perfusion pressure, abdominal perfusion pressure, urinary output). Norepinephrine is the first line agent when vasopressors are indicated. Epinephrine, phenylephrine, and vasopressin should not be used as first line agents. If hypotension persists despite the use of norepinephrine, epinephrine should be added to current vasopressor therapy. Vasopressin may be added to norepinephrine to optimize the therapeutic efficacy of norepinephrine.
