Neuroendocrine response to haemorrhage
Neuroendocrine response to haemorrhage
The body's regulated response to blood loss, primarily aimed at maintaining blood flow to vital organs like the heart and brain, even if it means diverting blood from other organs. It involves both the nervous system and the endocrine system.
Haemorrhagic shock
Haemorrhagic shock
The reduction in blood volume due to bleeding, leading to a drop in blood pressure and a decrease in the circulation of oxygen and nutrients.
Sympathetic nervous system
Sympathetic nervous system
Part of the autonomic nervous system that controls the constriction of blood vessels, thereby increasing blood pressure.

Study Notes
Shock
- Shock is the failure to meet the metabolic needs of the cells, leading to cellular consequences.
- Initial cellular injury is often reversible, but prolonged or severe tissue perfusion can cause irreversible damage and cellular hypoxia/ischemia.
- Decreased tissue perfusion is the core component of shock.
Historical Background
- Shock, in hemorrhagic conditions, is linked to reduced cardiac output due to blood loss, not a toxic factor.
- Blalock proposed four shock categories: hypovolemic, vasogenic, cardiogenic, and neurogenic.
Categorization of Shock
- Hypovolemic: Results from loss of circulating blood volume (hemorrhagic, plasma, interstitial fluid loss, etc).
- Vasogenic: Decreased resistance within capacitance vessels (veins), often seen in sepsis.
- Neurogenic: Spinal cord injury or spinal anesthesia causing vasodilation due to loss of sympathetic tone.
- Cardiogenic: Heart's failure as a pump, due to arrhythmias or acute myocardial infarction.
- Obstructive: Mechanical impediment to circulation resulting in decreased cardiac output.
Pathophysiology of Shock
- Regardless of cause, shock is characterized by inadequate tissue perfusion and cellular energy deficit.
- Compensatory mechanisms in shock aim to maintain perfusion to crucial organs.
- Irreversible phase occurs when compensation fails and leads to complete organ dysfunction and ultimately death.
Core Principles in critically ill patients
- Airway control, hemorrhage control, and volume resuscitation are paramount.
- Excessive fluid resuscitation in some cases may harm, such as in clotting or bleeding conditions.
Modern Definitions & Challenges
- Modern definitions highlight inadequate tissue perfusion.
- Challenges include moving beyond fluid resuscitation; therapies targeting cellular and molecular levels are essential.
Inflammation & Immune Response
- Failure to control inflammatory response can lead to systemic issues, like systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) or multiple organ failure.
- Several mechanisms involving bioactive peptides, cellular molecules (like HMGB1), and danger molecules trigger inflammatory responses.
- Cytokines (like TNF-α, IL-1) play crucial roles in these responses.
Neuroendocrine & Organ-Specific Responses
- Goal= maintain heart and brain perfusion, even at the cost of other organs.
- Hormones (epinephrine), autonomic control help to regulate vascular tone and cardiac function.
- Local autoregulation supports regional blood flow.
Cardiovascular Response to Shock
- Reduced cardiac output results in decreased arterial pressure and systemic blood flow.
- Compensatory mechanisms like increased heart rate and contractility, and vasoconstriction occur.
- Cellular and metabolic responses also contribute to the compensatory/adaptive mechanisms.
Metabolic Effects
- Cellular metabolism relies heavily on ATP hydrolysis.
- Hypoxia shifts to anaerobic metabolism (glycolysis), resulting in intracellular acidosis and O2 debit.
- Shock stimulates hormonal and cellular responses that prioritize glucose and energy production.
Forms of Shock
- Hypovolemic: Results from loss of circulating blood volume.
- Cardiogenic: Heart's failure-related pumping impairment.
- Obstructive: Obstruction impacting circulation.
- Neurogenic: Systemic vasodilation caused by loss of sympathetic nerve function.
- Specifics about each type of shock are covered further in the text
Treatment
- Prompt treatment is crucial; initial measures focus on airway, breathing, circulation (ABC).
- Restoring intravascular volume and optimizing tissue oxygenation are key.
- Further detailed information on treatment is shown in specific components.
