Study Notes
Shock and Hemorrhage
- Hemorrhage is a type of shock (صدمة)
- In shock, reactions occur to increase oxygen content in each erythrocyte (red blood cell) and cause faster circulation of the remaining blood
- As a result, urine output decreases and eventually stops due to decreased blood flow to the kidneys
Medical Management of Hypovolemic Shock
- Giving oxygen to increase the saturation of remaining blood cells
- A pulse oximeter is used to assess oxygen saturation of the blood
- Other possible medical management actions may include:
- (Note: no other actions mentioned in the text apart from giving oxygen)
Posterior Pituitary Gland and Oxytocin
- The infant suckling at the breast stimulates the woman's posterior pituitary gland to secrete oxytocin
- Oxytocin causes uterine contraction
