Shock is a state of wide spread tissue Shock is a state of wide spread tissue hypo perfusion caused by hypo perfusion caused by an inadequate cardiac output oran inadequate cardiac output orineffective circulatory blood volume, ineffective circulatory blood volume,
leading to inadequate supply of leading to inadequate supply of oxygen and nutrients to the tissues oxygen and nutrients to the tissues and removal of metabolic wastes and removal of metabolic wastes from there to the organs of from there to the organs of excretion.excretion.
