What Is Hypovolemic Shock?
Hypovolemic shock is an emergency medical condition in which a person suffers significant loss of blood and other fluids due to internal or external injuries. Low blood pressure severely limits the heart’s ability to pump blood throughout the body, resulting in rapid breathing, mental confusion, weakness, and possibly unconsciousness. It is essential to receive immediate treatment when experiencing hypovolemic shock to restore blood levels and prevent permanent damage of the heart and other internal organs.
