Anaphylactic Shock Explained: Recognition, Hemodynamics, and Emergency Treatment

Anaphylactic shock is a severe, life-threatening form of distributive shock caused by systemic hypersensitivity reactions and massive release of vasoactive mediators. It is characterized by hypotension, airway compromise, bronchospasm, and cutaneous findings such as urticaria and angioedema.
In this episode, we break down the pathophysiology of anaphylactic shock, classic clinical presentation, key hemodynamic patterns, and evidence-based management. We focus on early recognition, the critical role of intramuscular epinephrine, airway management, fluid resuscitation, and treatment of refractory shock.
We also review how to differentiate anaphylaxis from septic and neurogenic shock, discuss adjunctive therapies, and highlight major guideline recommendations from WAO, AAAAI, and NIAID/FAAN.

Endocrine Shock Explained: Adrenal Crisis, Myxedema Coma, Thyroid Storm

Endocrine shock refers to life-threatening shock states caused by hormonal deficiencies or endocrine crises that impair vascular tone, cardiac output, and metabolism. Unlike other forms of shock, endocrine shock is often diagnosed only after common causes such as sepsis, cardiogenic, or hypovolemic shock have been ruled out.
In this episode, we break down the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and hemodynamic patterns of the most important endocrine emergencies: adrenal crisis, myxedema coma, thyroid storm, and severe hypoglycemia. We focus on recognition of key clues such as refractory hypotension, bradycardia, hypothermia, electrolyte abnormalities, and metabolic collapse.
Management principles including IV hydrocortisone for adrenal crisis, thyroid hormone replacement for myxedema coma, beta-blockade and thionamides for thyroid storm, and dextrose for hypoglycemia are reviewed alongside guideline-based recommendations. This video is designed for emergency medicine, critical care, and internal medicine trainees as well as board exam preparation.

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Advanced - Diagnosis | Clinical Medicine

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) diagnosis can be complex, but is critically important. In this video, we dive into the complexities of diagnosing ARDS. We discuss the Berlin Criteria as a diagnostic approach before transitioning into the newer Global Definition of ARDS published in 2024. We compare and contrast these two diagnostic frameworks, review real-world examples, and discuss how to apply this clinically.

Neurogenic Shock Explained: Physiology, Diagnosis, and Management | Trauma & Critical Care

Neurogenic shock is a form of distributive shock caused by loss of sympathetic tone after spinal cord injury, most commonly with lesions above T6. Unlike other shock states, it presents with hypotension, bradycardia, and warm, dry skin.
In this episode, we break down the pathophysiology of neurogenic shock, how to distinguish it from spinal shock, classic clinical findings, and high-yield hemodynamic patterns. We also review evidence-based management including fluid strategy, vasopressor selection, bradycardia treatment, and temperature control.
Guideline-based targets for spinal cord perfusion, including AANS/CNS MAP goals, are discussed along with critical trauma and ICU pearls. This video is designed for emergency medicine, critical care, trauma, and neurology trainees as well as board exam preparation.
