Volume remains the same

Tank (vessels) expands

High space shock goes by other names you may be familiar with, such as relative hypovolemia or distributive shock. In this form of shock, the fluid volume remains the same, but the vessels dilate causing poor perfusion and hypotension. Fluid can also shift from intracellular to extracellular space. This can be seen in neuogenic shock (spinal shock) where vessels lose sympathetic tone (which causes vasoconstriction), anaphylaxis, or sepsis. All of these forms of shock show hypotension that should be initially managed with fluid, but it is not due to true hypovolemia.

Does electric shock occur in space?

An electric shock could occur in space. One thing to keep in mind about electrical shocks is that if the body provides a return path for current to flow then an electrical shock will occur. It does not matter if it is in space or on earth, touching a potential across the output supply on a high voltage system is going to short circuit the supply through you.


Would you expect a spaceship travelling into the moon to produce a shock wavewhy?

A shock wave would not propagate outward from the collision into space because there is almost no matter in space to propagate the wave.
