[00:00:00]Shock isn't just low blood pressure.

[00:00:02]It's a body wide power failure.

[00:00:05]When organs stop getting enough oxygen rich blood, the dominoes begin falling.

[00:00:09]First the brain becomes confused, then the kidneys slow down, then the heart struggles to keep up. The body tries to compensate by raising the heart rate and tightening blood vessels, but eventually the system crashes. That's why early nursing intervention matters so much. In shock, you're racing against the domino effect before the next organ falls.
