Which Type of Shock Results from Any Type of Heart

Question

Which type of shock results from any type of heart failure?
A) cardiogenic shock
B) neurogenic shock
C) anaphylactic shock
D) septic shock

Accepted Answer

Cardiogenic shock is caused by any type of heart failure, where the heart can no longer pump blood effectively to meet the body's needs. This results in decreased blood pressure and insufficient oxygen and nutrient supply to the organs and tissues, leading to organ failure and ultimately death if not promptly managed. Neurogenic shock results from nervous system damage, anaphylactic shock from severe allergic reactions, and septic shock from overwhelming infections.
