Presentation
Consequently, neurogenic shock's unique presentation includes: [5] [6] Neurogenic shock is diagnosed based on a person's symptoms and blood pressure levels. [en.wikipedia.org]
Therefore, awareness of and knowledge about the occurrence, clinical presentation and treatment are essential. [rba.elsevier.es]

- 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]

- 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]

As polyuria may develop in many other conditions as well, the present case is about a patient with a chief complaint of polyuria accompanied by nocturia, that was initially diagnosed as hydronephrosis due to the presence of neurogenic bladder and bladder [e-enm.org]

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]
Prevention
Treatment options are meant to stabilize you and prevent any additional injury or damage. First, your doctor will immobilize you to prevent further damage. Then they will give you fluids intravenously to regulate your blood pressure. [healthline.com]
