Given the loose terminology hemorrhagic shock is more of a shocking TV description term than anything else. On occasion I have accidentally caused hemorrhagic shock in people. In these cases defining it as bleeding lots of blood out of the body until the blood pressure is very low, I am guessing this is what the original question attempted to ask about. The key to survival is to stop the bleeding and restore the BP with volume..generally what ever is on hand although IV blood would be ideal. Depending on how low the BP has fallen and how much end organ damage has been caused this may be possible with oral rehydration as a temporizing measure but i have no experiance with that. Best thing is to go to a hospital asap before boing up any soup or opening packs of jerky. Oral iron in any form is worthless.
I always give them chicken soup at least the next day as it makes em feel better and then I'm less likely to get sued. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>Nice try. Very stupid, but nice try. Thanks for playing.
