One of the signs and symptoms of hypovolemia is tachycardia (Nursing, 2000). Tachycardia is the medical term for rapid heartbeat (Mayo Clinic).[brighthub.com]
Tachycardia is sensitive but not specific indicator. Prolonged capillary refill ( 2 seconds) , especially when combined with tachycardia, is more specific, although it may be difficult to measure. Cold skin and decreased urine output may be present.[openanesthesia.org]
Usually chest pain and tachycardia are also present. Hypovolemia is insufficient amounts of intravascular fluid. Symptoms can be tachycardia, tachypnea, low blood pressure, poor perfusion, slow cap refill, and signs of dehydration.[allnurses.com]
