In this episode, we break down the four major shock states — hypovolemic, cardiogenic, obstructive, and distributive — and provide a structured approach to evaluating patients in undifferentiated shock. We’ll then take a deeper dive into septic shock, including pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management strategies used in the ICU and emergency department.
