patients undergoing massive transfusion were treated with
either a high plasma to red blood cell (RBC) ratio of 1:1.4,
medium plasma:RBC ratio of 1:2.5, or low plasma:RBC
ratio of 1:8.7 In this study, patients treated in the highratio group (1:1.4) demonstrated the lowest mortality
rates (p < .001).7 Based on these ndings, it was recommended that MTPs for coagulopathic patients incorporate
a plasma:RBC ratio of 1:17 in order to decrease mortality
secondary to hemorrhage.
Currently, most hospital MTPs use a plasma:
platelet:RBC ratio of 1:1:116 in order to most closely
resemble reconstituted whole blood.17 A recent randomized, prospective study comparing 1:1:1 to 1:1:2 transfusion ratios for trauma patients undergoing massive
transfusion resuscitation found no signicant dierence
in mortality rates at 24 hours or at 30days between the
two groups.17 However, death by exsanguination within
Viscoelastic tests are increasingly used to manage patients
with massive hemorrhage. romboelastography (TEG)
and rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) are
dynamic tests that allow for real- time assessment of the
kinetics and strength of clot formation. ese tests provide
information on both the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways
and on the amount of brinogen present, and can detect the
presence of brinolysis. e more traditional tests of coagulation:international normalized ratio (INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), and prothrombin time
(PT), do not account for potential derangements in platelet
function or clot formation. When combined with hemoglobin, platelets, and brinogen values, viscoelastic tests can
play an integral role in goal- directed hemostatic therapy
where factor- specic products are administered based on
the deciency present.

Rising arterial lactate and decreased mixed venous oxygen
saturation (SvO2) can assess oxygen delivery. Oxygen delivery (DO2) to the tissues is dependent on cardiac output
(CO) and arterial oxygen content (CaO2). e latter takes
into account the oxygen bound to hemoglobin in addition
to the amount of oxygen dissolved in blood:CaO2=1.39×
(Hemoglobin) × SaO2 + PaO2 × 0.003. e majority of
oxygen is carried by hemoglobin, while only a small portion is dissolved in blood. Given the risks associated with
blood product administration (Table 12.8),19 the clinician
must determine whether the administration of appropriate
blood products will potentially improve clinical outcomes.
In the absence of clinical signs and/ or symptoms, including tachycardia not responsive to uid administration,
orthostatic hypotension, chest pain, shortness of breath,
and congestive heart failure, most societies advocate for
more restrictive blood- product- administration protocols.16 A systematic review by the American Association
of Blood Banks (AABB) recommends a restrictive transfusion protocol, hemoglobin 7 to 8 g/ dL, for hospitalized
patients who are hemodynamically stable and not showing
any signs or symptoms of impaired oxygen delivery.16 For
patients with preexisting coronary artery disease who are
hemodynamically stable and are asymptomatic, the AABB
also recommends following a restrictive transfusion protocol. Two of the major trials included in this analysis were
the transfusion trigger trial for Functional Outcomes in
Cardiovascular Patients Undergoing Surgical Hip Fracture
Repair (FOCUS) and the Transfusion Requirements in
Critical Care (TRICC) trial. e FOCUS trial included
patients who had either risk factors for or a history of
cardiovascular disease.7 For the liberal group, the goal
hemoglobin was 10 g/ dL while a goal of 8 g/ dL was
used in the restrictive group. e study found no dierence in in- hospital morbidity, mortality rates, or ability
to walk independently at 60days follow- up between the
two groups.7 While the restrictive group did have a higher
rate of in- hospital acute coronary syndrome (5.2% versus
4.3%), this dierence did not reach statistical signicance.7
In the TRICC trial, critically ill patients were randomized
to either a liberal transfusion strategy to maintain a goal
hemoglobin of 10g/ dL or a restrictive group to maintain a
hemoglobin of 7 g/ dL.17 ere was no dierence in overall
30- day mortality between the two groups. In a subgroup
analysis, 30- day mortality was lower in younger (less than
55years of age) and less acutely ill patients randomized to
a restrictive strategy.17 While 30- day mortality rates for
patients with clinically signicant cardiac disease were
lower in the restrictive group when compared with the
liberal group, this dierence was not statistically signicant.17 In- hospital mortality rates were lower in the restrictive group. e TRACS trial, a prospective, randomized,
controlled trial of patients who underwent cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass, investigated transfusion goals of a hematocrit (Hct) ≥30% versus a restrictive
strategy of a Hct ≥24% during the perioperative period.
Researchers found no increase in 30- day all- cause mortality in the restrictive versus the liberal group.

complications. Hypokalemia occurs less commonly during PRBC administration. It is associated with reactivation ofthe RBC ATPase pump, metabolic alkalosis, and
the release of aldosterone, antidiuretic hormone, and catecholamines. It also can be seen with the administration of
large amounts of uids with minimal to no potassium— to

Hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia oen occur secondary to the amount of citrate in transfused blood products, especially FFP. Citrate is an anticoagulant added to
PRBCs that is normally metabolized by the liver hepatic
citric acid cycle where 1 gram of citrate is converted to about
2grams of bicarbonate.22 In general, each unit of PRBCs
contains 3 grams of citrate and, under normal conditions,23
the liver is able to clear this amount of citrate in 5 minutes.20

negative inotropy.

massive transfusion (MT) of PRBCs. During the processing of PRBCs, the anticoagulant citrate- phosphatedextrose- adenine leads to a pH of 7.0.20 With the storage of
PRBCs, the pH oen decreases to 6.6– 6.8 as carbon dioxide is produced during ATP metabolism.20 During a massive

of perioperative hypovolemic shock include hemorrhage,
diuretics, and GI losses. Preoperative assessment of volume status should be undertaken to determine whether the
patient is relatively hypovolemic. is includes a history of
diuretic use, prolonged NPO status, vomiting, or diarrhea
that may predispose the patient to hypovolemia. Adequate
venous access should be obtained in surgical cases associated
with large blood loss. Prompt resuscitation is imperative
to restore blood ow and thus oxygen delivery to tissues.
Volume decits can be replaced with crystalloids, colloids,
blood products, or a combination of uids. Optimal intraoperative replacement uid and transfusion triggers have
not yet been fully elucidated.
CASE- BASED LEARNING DISCUSSION
1. In this case of a patient undergoing surgery with a high
risk of hemorrhage, what considerations must be taken
to ensure adequate intravenous access? Does the fact
that she has antibodies on a previous type and screen
change management? What blood products would you
order before starting thiscase?
2. Aer induction of general anesthesia, you have
decided to place an arterial catheter for hemodynamic
monitoring and an introducer catheter for uid
resuscitation. Aer delivery of the neonate, the
obstetrician tells you that there is a large amount
of bleeding that they are having a dicult time
controlling. What would be your initial resuscitation
uid? What if the estimated blood loss were
approximately 2 liters with ongoing blood loss? Is there
any role for albumin in this resuscitation?
3. e bleeding continues, and you have set up
a rapid transfuser and activated the massive
transfusion protocol. What ratio of blood products
(plasma:platelet:RBC) would you administer? What
electrolyte abnormalities would you be concerned
about? How would you treat these electrolyte
abnormalities?

100 milliliters of blood loss, the patient becomes tachycardic with a heart rate of 130, hypotensive with a mean
arterial pressure of approximately 40mmHg, and hypoxic

Normal right heart lling is a result of the pressure dieren-
tial between the right atrium (RA) and the venous system.
Disease states that externally compress the RA or central
veins will increase RA pressure and decrease this pressure

One example of increased RA pressure is cardiac tampon-
ade. When a pericardial eusion accumulates to a large
volume or over a short period of time, the pressures of the
cardiac chambers equalize in diastole and increase to abnor-
mal levels.3 e RA pressure is normally less than 10mmHg
but can increase to over 20mmHg if uid in the pericardial
sac compresses the RA and the right ventricle (RV).3 Blood
from the venous system is unable to ow into the right

lled heart despite high intracardiac pressures. Low end-

cause obstructive shock from decreased venous return.
Increased intra- abdominal pressure compresses the inferior
vena cava, decreases venous outow from the lower body,
and displaces the diaphragm cephalad, which increases
intrathoracic pressure.

Tamponade, tension pneumothorax, auto- PEEP, and
abdominal compartment syndrome decrease the pressure differential between the venous system and the RA, obstructing venous return to the heart. However, obstructive shock
may also occur due to physical obstruction to outow from
the heart. One cause of outow obstruction is acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Pulmonary embolism has a variable
hemodynamic presentation depending on the clot burden
and the extent of obstruction in the pulmonary vasculature.
Mortality ranges from approximately one- third of patients
who present with shock to more than three- quarters of those
who require cardiopulmonary resuscitation.8 Obstruction of
pulmonary vessels by thromboemboli increases RV aerload,
which dilates the RV, decreases RV stroke volume, and shis
the interventricular septum, which reduces le ventricular
(LV) stroke volume.8 While the cause of PE is oen embolism of deep vein thromboses (DVT) from pelvic or lower
extremity veins, other sources of emboli to the pulmonary
vasculature include air, fat, and amniotic uid.
9– 11
Similar to
PE, pulmonary hypertensive crisis in patients with chronic
pulmonary arterial hypertension can cause an acute increase
in right ventricular aerload and subsequent RV failure. In
the perioperative period, these patients are at increased risk
of RV failure and cardiac arrest in the setting of sedation, systemic hypotension, and highPEEP.

Other disease states can prevent blood from moving
forward within the heart chambers and cause obstructive
shock. Cardiac myxomas are very rare, with an incidence of
less than 0.2%. ey are usually pedunculated and arise from
the le atrium. Myxomas can move into the mitral valve
aperture, temporarily obstructing ow from the atrium into
the ventricle, leading to episodes of syncope or even sudden
death due to obstructive shock.12 Hypertrophic obstructive
cardiomyopathy (HOCM) with septal hypertrophy can
cause the anterior leaet of the mitral valve to dynamically
RISK FACTORS
Obstructive shock is a multifactorial process caused by a
wide variety of mechanisms, but there are certain risk factors that can predispose to obstructive shock. One risk factor for obstructive shock is blunt or penetrating thoracic
trauma that may ultimately lead to cardiac tamponade or
tension pneumothorax.14 Pneumothorax occurs in a signicant proportion of chest trauma patients with rib fractures.
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation with chest compressions
may also increase the risk of pneumothorax. Asimple pneumothorax in a mechanically ventilated patient has a high
risk of evolution to a tension pneumothorax.5 Tra um a
patients are also at higher risk for other sources of obstructive shock during their hospitalization. Trauma victims
who sustain traumatic brain injury have a three- to fourfold increased risk of DVT compared with trauma patients
without traumatic brain injury, regardless of pharmacologic
prophylaxis.15 Post- traumatic pelvic and lower extremity
fractures, burns, and spinal cord injury also increase the risk
for venous thromboembolism due to patient immobilization, endothelial injury, hypercoagulability, and diculty
with pharmacologic prophylaxis due to bleeding risks.16
With a higher incidence of DVTs in trauma patients, the
risk of obstructive shock from PE also increases.
Hypercoagulable states (i.e., malignancy, pregnancy,
surgery) predispose patients to the development of venous
thrombosis. Hereditary conditions including factor V
Leiden and protein C and S deciencies also increase the
risk of developing DVTs.17 Certain malignancies (breast,
hepatocellular, or renal cell carcinoma) may also form macroemboli that cause obstruction of the pulmonary vasculature.18 Renal cell carcinoma can invade into the inferior vena
cava (IVC), reach the RA, and obstruct venous return.
19
Some conditions and surgical procedures pose a higher
risk of nonthrombotic pulmonary embolism. Fat embolism
can occur during repair and intramedullary reaming of long
bone and pelvic fractures and during knee prosthesis placement.20 Amniotic uid embolism (AFE) is a rare event in
the peripartum period that cannot be predicted and carries

signicant maternal mortality.11 Rupture of membranes
(as in cesarean delivery, placenta previa, or abruption) may
increase the risk of AFE by exposing the maternal circulatory system to amniotic uid, which can also provoke
an allergic- type reaction.21 Air may be entrained into the
venous system and cause embolism. Venous air embolism
(VAE) is more likely to occur when surgically entering noncollapsed veins, such as in a sitting craniotomy or in laparoscopic procedures,9 or when manipulating central venous
catheters.18 e morbidity of a VAE depends on the level of
air entrapment in relation to the heart during the event, the
rate of air entrainment, and the volume of entrainedair.
9
Other iatrogenic factors may impact the development
of obstructive shock. Insuation during laparoscopic procedures increases intra- abdominal pressure and may reduce
venous return and lead to low cardiac output.22 Inadequate
expiratory time with mechanical ventilation can contribute to auto- PEEP, especially in patients with asthma or
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,6 while excessively
high peak airway pressures and set tidal volumes may cause
alveolar rupture and pneumothorax.23 Pneumothorax is
also a potential complication of central venous catheter
placement.24 While open- heart surgery is associated with
the risk of pericardial eusion and tamponade,3 especially
in the rst month aer cardiac surgery,25 even less invasive
percutaneous coronary artery interventions pose a risk of
coronary perforation that can cause tamponade.26 In cases
of sepsis or massive blood loss, over- resuscitation causes
bowel edema and intra- abdominal hypertension.
27,28
Specialized invasive monitors such as an arterial catheter, a CVC, or a pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) can provide important diagnostic information about the etiology
of shock beyond standard noninvasive monitoring data.
For example, in cardiac tamponade, an arterial line may
demonstrate pulsus paradoxus, and equalization of the central venous pressure and pulmonary artery diastolic pressure may be observed from PAC information.3 Increased
pulmonary artery pressures visualized via PAC may occur
in an acute PE or pulmonary hypertensive crisis.
8
Data from other sources can also assist in diagnosing
the underlying etiology. Abladder catheter can be placed to
trend hourly urine output and measure intravesicular pressures if there is concern for intra- abdominal hypertension.7
Elevated serum lactate levels from dysfunctional cellular
oxygen metabolism29 can occur in shock, and monitoring these levels in response to treatment may be helpful.33
Elevations in creatinine and liver function tests may indicate end- organ hypoperfusion due to RV dysfunction.8 An
electrocardiogram (ECG) with a pattern of PR depression
and low QRS voltage suggests pericardial eusion with
tamponade.34 Aprominent S wave in lead Iplus a Q wave
and T wave inversion in lead III (the S1Q3T3 pattern),35
sinus tachycardia, or T wave inversions in V1 to V4 occurs
with acute RV pressure or volume overload from a PE.32

Obstructive shock usually presents with hemodynamic alterations such as hypotension and clinical signs of end- organ
hypoperfusion, such as altered mental status or cool skin
from peripheral vasoconstriction.29 Physical exam ndings
are oen nonspecic but may help guide the performance
of more specic diagnostic studies in certain cases. Physical
exam ndings specic to dierent types of obstructive
shock might include jugular venous distention in cases of
cardiac tamponade,30 tension pneumothorax,31 or massive
PE.32 Unilateral breath sounds suggest a pneumothorax,31
and equal bilateral lung sounds with distant heart sounds
may indicate tamponade.30 Patients with cardiac myxomas

ing cause of shock. Apattern in which the expiratory ow
loop does not return to baseline (Figure 13.1) implies that
auto- PEEP with dynamic hyperination may be the cause
of decreased venous return and shock.6 Apneumothorax
may suddenly increase airway pressure or decrease tidal volume.5 Similarly, elevated peak inspiratory and mean airway
pressures with decreased compliance and tidal volume can
occur with intra- abdominal hypertension.

Ultrasonography is an invaluable diagnostic tool for
evaluating obstructive shock. Key ndings on focused
transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in cardiac tamponade are a pericardial eusion and diastolic collapse of
the RA and/ or RV36 (Figure 13.2). e focused TTE in
acute RV strain associated with pulmonary hypertensive
crisis or PE could show an enlarged RV, a D- shaped septum in the parasternal short- axis view, or even thrombus
within the heart36 (Figure 13.3). A more comprehensive
TTE examination evaluates tricuspid annular plane systolic

subsequent treatment steps and follow up of the patient.
INITIAL APPROACH
Management of any patient with suspected shock includes
establishing the airway, assisting breathing, and restoring
or maintaining circulation.1 Controlled ventilation reduces
the work of breathing and delivers oxygen to vital organs.1
When there is obstruction to cardiac lling with low pre-
41,42
load, a uid bolus can increase systemic pressure, venous
return to the RA, and subsequently cardiac output.2 In contrast, in the case of RV dysfunction, excessive uid administration might exacerbate RV volume overload and shi the
interventricular septum leward to worsen LV lling and
output.

As with other types of obstructive shock (i.e.,
auto- PEEP, intra- abdominal hypertension, and HOCM),
judicious intravenous uid resuscitation in pulmonary
hypertensive crisis should allow for adequate preload conditions.
