Abstract
In shock there is a significant mismatch between oxygen supply and consumption. In recent years the classification of forms of shock has been established based on pathophysiological and clinical aspects. The term distributive shock includes septic, anaphylactic and neurogenic shock. All these forms share a distinct vasoplegia with a relative volume deficiency. The adequate treatment of patients with distributive shock includes a rapid diagnosis and a consistent emergency treatment consisting of volume and catecholamine administration as well as additional specific emergency procedures when necessary.
