SHOCK:
Anaphylactic - cool, pale skin, low BP, increase HR, respiratory distress, rash, swelling, anxious
Cardiogenic - cool, clammy skin, decrease LOC, rapid thready pulse, rapid shallow RR, low BP (<60), gallop, distant heart sounds
Hypovolemic - cool, clammy skin, low BP, rapid thready pulse, rapid shallow RR, decrease LOC
Initial septic - flushed skin, N to hi BP, rapid full bounding pulse, shallow respirations
Late septic - pale cyanotic skin, low BP, rapid weak thready pulse, rapid shallow respirations
Neurogenic - pale, warm, dry skin, low BP, low bounding PR, altered LOC

In addition:
ICP (into BP) ↑BP ↓PR, RR
SHOCK (just reverse of the ICP) ↓BP ↑PR, RR

Neurogenic shock...you will have a demarcation line (very obvious) pink above the level of injury pale (almost white) below the level of injury.

what about interventions/ outcomes for each. NCLEX would probably ask more along those lines no?

scrubs it shoots this motivational shock wave through me. It is what motivates me. What area do you work/specialize in?:icon_roll

Hi! I'm not sure if you are referring to me. But if you are, I worked in an OR specializing in ophtha surgeries before for 2 years, here in the Phils.

You would most likely see shock questions in the form of prioritization.
A far as interventions, think about the patho of shock, what it does to the body, and how are you going to stop/fight/attempt to reverse it?
