No. 115-Hemorrhagic Shock. J Obstet Gynaecol Can. 2018 Dec;40(12):e874-e882 Authors: Martel MJ Abstract OBJECTIVE: To review the clinical aspects of hemorrhagic shock and provide recommendations for therapy. OPTIONS: Early recognition of hemorrhagic shock and prompt systematic intervention will help avoid poor outcomes. OUTCOMES: Establish guidelines to assist in early recognition of hemorrhagic shock and to conduct resuscitation in an organized and evidence-based manner. EVIDENCE: Medline references were sought using the MeSH term "hemorrhagic shock." All articles published in the disciplines of obstetrics and gynaecology, surgery, trauma, critical care, anesthesia, pharmacology, and hemotology between 1 January 1990 and 31 August 2000 were reviewed, as well as core textbooks from these fields. Selected references from these articles and book chapters were also obtained and reviewed. The level of evidence has been determined using the criteria described by the Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care. VALIDATION: These guidelines have been reviewed by the Clinical Practice Obstetrics Committee and approved by Executive and Council of the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada. SPONSORS: The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada. RECOMMENDATIONS: PMID: 30527081 [PubMed - in process]
