    This document discusses hypotension and its causes, diagnosis, and treatment. Hypotension is a condition of low blood pressure that can be caused by factors like hypovolemia, cardiac issues, vasodilation, anesthesia, bradyarrhythmias, excess drugs, hypoxia, hypoglycemia, and cardiac diseases. It is diagnosed through tests like radiography, echocardiography, electrocardiography, and assessing body temperature, clinical symptoms, and neurological parameters. Treatment involves physical stimulation, fluid therapy, ventilation, dextrose, warming measures, and drugs like anticholinergics, sympathomimetics, and digoxin.

    Hypotension

    • It is a patholgical condition in which there


    is reduced blood supply or low blood
    pressure is called hypotension
    Etiology

    • hypovolemia
    • cardiac insufficiency
    • excessive vasodilation
    • anesthetic depth
    • bradyarrthmias,excessive drugs
    • hypoxia,hypoglycemia
    • cardiac diseases
    Diagnosis
    • Radiography
    • Echocardiography
    • electrocardigraphy
    • body temperature
    • clinical symptoms
    • neurological parameters/reflexes
    patient related causses

    hypotension leads
    • liver or kidney diseases
    • intracranial diseases
    • hypoglycemia
    • shock
    • hypothermia
    Treatment

    managemetal aspect
    • physical stimulation-by rubbing,massaging
    • fluid therapy-A bolus of I/V fluid,warmed
    fluids
    • ventilation
    • dextrose
    • warming measures
    Drugs

    • Anticholinergic drugs-eg-propantheline
    bromide
    • sympathomimetic drug-
    turbutaline,theophylline are used to
    increase heart rate
    • Digoxin used in dogs for valvular disease
