Undernutrition in infancy and early childhood primarily affects the growth and development of the gastrointestinal, immune, and neurological systems. The gastrointestinal system may struggle with nutrient absorption, leading to deficiencies and developmental delays. The immune system becomes compromised, increasing vulnerability to infections and illnesses. Additionally, undernutrition can hinder brain development, impacting cognitive function and overall developmental milestones.

What body systems are affected in shock?

When a person experiences shock, multiple body systems are affected, including the cardiovascular system, respiratory system, central nervous system, and metabolic system. In response to shock, the body may redirect blood flow away from non-critical organs to maintain vital organ function, leading to symptoms such as low blood pressure, rapid breathing, altered mental status, and metabolic acidosis. Treatment of shock focuses on stabilizing these affected systems and restoring adequate perfusion to vital organs.
