What is another word for obstructive shock?
Pronunciation: [ɒbstɹˈʌktɪv ʃˈɒk] (IPA) 
Obstructive shock is a medical condition where blood flow is restricted due to an obstruction in the circulatory system. Symptoms of obstructive shock may include low blood pressure, rapid heart rate, and difficulty breathing. There are several synonyms for obstructive shock, including circulatory shock, cardiogenic shock, and hypovolemic shock. Circulatory shock occurs when there is a significant decrease in blood pressure, while cardiogenic shock is caused by a malfunctioning of the heart. Hypovolemic shock is characterized by a severe loss of blood or body fluids. Regardless of the type, obstructive shock requires immediate medical attention to prevent further complications and improve the patient's outcome.
