Hyporperfusion can be occur if the heart is damaged and unable to pump and adequate amount of blood through the body, there is inadequate blood volume in the body, or blood vessels are unable to respond to changes in blood pressure.

What condition is a deficiency of blood passing through an organ?
Hypoperfusion is inadequate blood flow through an organ.
What is the most sensitive indicator of hypoperfusion?
Hemorrhage is a major cause of shock hypoperfusion.
What is a deficiency of blood through an organ or body part?
Hypoperfusion!
What is a deficiency of blood passing through an organ or body part?
Hypoperfusion!
How long can a person live with inadequate perfusion?
It would depend on which organs weren't being perfused well and to what level the hypoperfusion was at. The brain, kidneys, and parts of the bowel are particularly vulnerable to hypoperfusion, while muscle and bone tissue is pretty resistant.
When the body senses a state of hypoperfusion the sympathetic nervous system releases epinephrine the effects of which include?
tachycardia
Shock liver?
acute hypoperfusion injury to liver....AST and ALT altered....restore perfusion and the hepatocytes can heal themselves
Is moderate to severe hypoperfusion in frontal and both temporal lobes very bad?
Yes, this may be a cause of permanent and severe brain damage. Hypoperfusion means there is an insufficient amount of blood flowing to those parts of the brain. The frontal lobe has neurons that function to regulate emotion and integrate multiple sources of information. The temporal lobes are involved in speech, movement, language and artistic expression.
What happens when your spleen is removed?
Your spleen is simply a blood reservoir so when it is removed if you ever get cut or bleed alot you have a more likely chance of suffering hypoperfusion eg: shock..
What is the term for decreased blood flow?
Ischemia is the medical term for decreased blood flow. Ischemia limits the supply of oxygen to tissues.
Is a convulsive syncope connected to vasovagal syncope?
Yes. If a patient with syncope is mid-incident and is prevented from achieving a fully supine position, global cerebral hypoperfusion is extended, leading to an anoxic convulsion.
What are the two major causes of ATN?
ATN Acute Tubular Necrosis The causes of acute renal failure (ARF) are conventionally and conveniently divided into 3 categories: prerenal, renal, and postrenal. Prerenal ARF involves an essentially normal kidney that is responding to hypoperfusion by decreasing the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Renal, or intrinsic, ARF refers to a condition in which the pathology lies within the kidney itself. Postrenal failure is caused by an obstruction of the urinary tract. Acute tubular necrosis (ATN) is the most common cause of ARF in the renal category.
