Intro
A talk by Sara Crager at the TBS24 conference in Zermatt. Kindly shared with permission.
See the TBS24 landing page for the programme and full set of talks.
Synopsis
Shock isn’t about hypotension, it’s about hypoperfusion. While we know this in theory, we don’t do a great job of applying it in practice. In order to move beyond our reliance on blood pressure to recognize shock at the bedside, we need to stop thinking about shock as a diagnosis and instead think about it as a continuum.
