This session will highlight the concept of circulatory shock as a lifetaking common occurrence with many causes whose care is central to the practice pf critical care medicine. The speaker will define cardiopulmonary insufficiency and highlight how critical care has moved from using monitoring to categorized shock etiologies, understanding complications of care, creating the best possible expert guidelines, then moving to more physiologically based precise care, and hopefully in the near future to personalized care. Multiple physiologic and clinical examples will be highlighted, placing present-day care within this context.
