Therefore, awareness of and knowledge about the occurrence, clinical presentation and treatment are essential. [rba.elsevier.es]

• Hypothermia

  […] inotropic support with dopamine or norepinephrine is required; this should be reserved for patients who have decreased urinary output despite adequate fluid resuscitation; usually, low doses of dopamine in the 2- to 5-mcg/kg/min range are sufficient Prevent hypothermia [medscape.com]

• Internal Bleeding

  It can also help doctors to detect any internal bleeding or additional damage. MRI scan An MRI scan is an imaging test used to show internal structures of your body, such as your spine. [healthline.com]

• Labored Breathing

  Symptoms of neurogenic shock include sweaty, cool skin; labored breathing, low blood pressure; dizziness; and anxiety. Many people with neurogenic shock have suffered an injury to the nervous system, such as the spinal cord. [en.wikipedia.org]

• Nausea

  Adverse reactions, such as nausea and vomiting, may occur after treatment initiation, but these can be controlled by concomitant use of an antiemetic agent. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Chest Pain

  If you’ve recently injured your spine and are feeling nauseous or dizzy and have chest pain, you should call 911 and visit an emergency room immediately. [healthline.com]

• Back Pain

  Combined with an evaluation of your symptoms, your doctor can use an MRI scan to diagnose the source of your back pain and neurogenic shock. Urinary catheter Doctors will also use a urinary catheter to measure your urine volume. [healthline.com]

• Flushing

• Sweating

  These neurotransmitters trigger an increased heart rate, faster breathing, and sweating. They also trigger vasoconstriction, to shunt blood away from the extremities and to the vital organs. [en.wikipedia.org]

• Headache

  Side effects were infrequent; only one patient complained of transient headaches. Neither hyponatremia nor serum electrolyte abnormalities occurred. [tandfonline.com]

Once occult sources of hemorrhage have been excluded, initial treatment of neurogenic shock focuses on fluid resuscitation. Judicious fluid replacement with isotonic crystalloid solution to a maximum of 2 L is the initial treatment of choice. [medscape.com]

Intravesical oxybutynin has also been evaluated in limited studies involving detrusor overactivity of neurologic etiology [78]. Its use, however, requires catheterization and can be cumbersome. [urotoday.com]

Neurogenic shock results from damage to the spinal cord above the level of the 6th thoracic vertebra. [4] It is found in about half of people who suffer spinal cord injury within the first 24 hours, and usually doesn't go away for one to three weeks. [4] Pathophysiology [en.wikipedia.org]

Pathophysiology The underlying pathophysiologic mechanism is not yet fully understood. To this uncertainty contributes the fact that neurogenic stuttering can occur associated with multiple pathologies and multiple lesion sites. [neurologia.com]
