Things were good again! We learned some medications and the different kinds of shock:
Cardiogenic, obstructive, septic, neurogenic, psychogenic, anaphylactic, hemmorhagic hypovolemia, and non-hemmorhagic hypovolemia.
Am I missing any?
The first two are pump failures, most of the others are caused by widespread dilation of arterioles, venules, or both. The final two are caused by issues with blood volume either through bleeding, plasma loss after burns, vomiting, diarrhea, or dehydration.
I also learned what a cardiac tamponade was. Pretty cool! Now I have class at freaking 8am to 5pm later, so goodnight.
