Figure 10

Conceptual figure depicting the key interactions from a physiological stimulus that elicits hypovolemia, such as hemorrhage, that results in hemodynamic decompensation and ultimately shock. Note that LT individuals compared to HT individuals have a reduced physiological and compensatory response, and thus reach a threshold of decompensation at a faster rate.
