    Cardiogenic shock results from the heart failing to pump enough blood due to a heart attack or heart failure exacerbation. Signs include low blood pressure and rising heart rate as the body compensates for low blood flow. Treatment focuses on increasing cardiac output through positive inotropic drugs like dopamine and digoxin. Anaphylactic shock is a severe allergic reaction that requires immediate epinephrine to prevent further drop in blood pressure and close the airways.
