Shock Index Interpretation

SI 0.5–0.7 — Normal

Haemodynamically stable. Monitor and reassess.

SI 0.7–0.9 — Mildly Elevated

Borderline. Monitor closely, establish IV access, consider fluid challenge.

SI 0.9–1.0 — Moderate Concern

Occult shock possible. Establish large-bore IV ×2, fluid resuscitation, urgent transport.

SI > 1.0 — Significant Shock

Aggressive resuscitation. Consider damage control. Immediate advanced intervention.

SI > 1.4 — Severe / Decompensated

Critical. Potential imminent cardiovascular collapse. Activate trauma team if available.

Haemorrhagic Shock Classes

I <15%

<100 Normal 14–20 15
II 15–30%
750–1500 mL
100–120 Normal 20–30 14–15
III 30–40%

120–140 30–40 12–14
IV >40%

Based on 70 kg adult. Blood volume ≈ 70 mL/kg (adult), ≈ 80 mL/kg (child).

MAP Formula

MAP = DBP + (SBP − DBP) ÷ 3

or MAP = (SBP + 2×DBP) ÷ 3

Normal MAP: 70–100 mmHg. MAP <65 mmHg = hypoperfusion. Target MAP ≥65 in septic shock (≥80 if pre-existing hypertension).

Clinical Disclaimer: Shock index and MAP are adjuncts only. Always integrate with full clinical assessment, mechanism of injury, and patient history. Follow your service protocols.
