Accepted Answer

Possibly: There are many different causes of shock, and any organ system in the body can be affected. Mental status changes (often as a result of low blood pressure) are common. Some patients in shock are completely awake & alert, but many patients are lethargic and/or delirious, or even comatose.

Question 2

electric shock symptoms ?

Accepted Answer

Very safe : I do electro convulsive shock treatment/ect for treating mostly severe depression. It is a very safe treatment and has rare side effects... Headache or some body aches and pains etc. Some  memory loss but it comes back. It is costly and does not last long, but can pull you out of severe depression for a year or so.

Question 9

what are the symptoms of anaphylactoid shock?

Accepted Answer

Anaphylactoid reacti: Anaphylactoid reactions cannot be distinguished from anaphylactic reactions by the clinical symptoms. The difference is solely in the mechanism by which allergic mediators (chemicals such as histamine) are released from blood mast cells. Anaphylactic reactions are caused by allergic antibody (ige).

Question 10

what are the symptoms of shock from a bad heart?

Accepted Answer

Shock: Shock leads to low BP and spasm of peripheral blood vessels to redirect blood to the more vital organ systems.  This leads to cold clammy skin, fast heart rate, and light headedness as the body tries to compensate.  Urine output falls and  mental processes and consciousness start to weaken.
