== Undifferentiated Hypotension Algorithm ==
Check/manage the following in order:
*Pulse (assess based on pt's age)
**Too slow or too fast (to the point where CO is affected)?
***If so, HR is likely primary etiology of hypotension
***Pace or cardiovert
*Volume Status
**What is the LV end-diastolic volume?
***Approximated by the [[Ultrasound: IVC|IVC diameter]] or CVP
***If low:
****Assess for blood loss versus fluid loss
*****[[Ultrasound: FAST|FAST]] for intra-abdominal bleed
*****US for ruptured [[Ultrasound: AAA|AAA]]
*****Guaiac for GI bleed
*****CXR for hemothorax
****Treat with IVF and/or pRBC depending on cause
*Contractility
**Is the myocardium severely depressed in its contractile function (cardiogenic shock)?
***Assess via [[Ultrasound: In Shock and Hypotension|ultrasound]]
***Treat w/ inotrope
**Is forward flow occurring?
***Assess for valvular dysfunction (MR, AR)
***Assess for obstruction (PE, tamponade)
*Systemic Vascular Resistance
**Pathologic vasodilation (decreased SVR) suggested by:
***Warm extremities
***Bounding pulse
**Treated based on likely etiology of distributive shock (see below)
