Thank you so much Alan!!!!!!! This is an amazing supplement to my Brunner&Suddarth text readings and my theory lectures for my current Neuro unit !!!! Your simple contrast approach between the two conditions was perfect!!!! It helped my light bulb come on for differentiating between these two SCI emergent conditions!!! Again...thanks so much!

I'm a bit confused. I thought Spinal shock characteristics were loss of sensation, hyporeflexia, absent thermoregulation, and neurogenic shock characteristics were hypotension and bradycardia. According to my med surg nursing book, they are two different types of shock???
Spinal shock is different from neurogenic shock. There is no circulatory collapse in spinal shock. Neurogenic shock is caused by severe autonomic dysfunction or dysreflexia resulting in severe vasodilatation and heart malfunction.Neurogenic shock may not be associated with areflexia.
Hypotension and bradycardia are present in both. Correction: Warm skin is found in neurogenic shock which is a type of distributive shock. Loss of sensation may be found in spinal shock. Spinal and neurogenic shock may occur both after a spinal cord injury.

Moonica Moon you are correct! Go with your book.

Awesome
Hemond Khavalier Thank you!
does neurogenic shock only happen 1 time and autonomic dysreflexia happen anytime there is overstimulation??
Yes, both conditions can recur any time esp. in AD.
Autonomic Dysreflexia causes tachycardia not bradychardia.
Both can occur but compensatory Bradycardia is more common
That is correct sorry. Might be worth adding that TC occurs also, differs between people.
