Respiratory System (J00-J99)
- Pulmonary hemorrhage, unspecified
- Tension pneumothorax – life-threatening condition characterized by collapse of the lung with development of excess pressure.
Certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P00-P96).
- Liver rupture as a birth injury
- Splenic rupture as birth injury
Blood, blood-forming organs – immune system (D50-D90).
- Splenic rupture (rupture of the spleen)
Skin and subcutaneous tissue (L00-L99)
- Generalized dermatitis – acute skin reaction, unspecified.
Cardiovascular system (I00-I99)
- Acute left heart failure (LHV).
- Acute right heart failure (RHV)
- Aneurysm dissecans – cleavage of the arterial wall.
- Embolism/thrombosis of the vena cava – occlusion of the vena cava by an embolus/thrombus.
- Decompensated cardiac ventricles (valvular defects).
- Cardiac arrhythmias such as ventricular tachycardia (ventricular tachycardia).
- Cardiomyopathy – group of heart muscle diseases that leads to a reduction in cardiac function.
- Pulmonary embolism – occlusion of a pulmonary vessel.
- Myocardial infarction (heart attack) – about 90% of patients survive a myocardial infarction; if cardiogenic shock occurs initially or in the course of a myocardial infarction, then the survival rate of infarction-related cardiogenic shock (ICS) patients is only about 50%, because of the formation of a multiorgandysfunction syndrome (MODS)/simultaneous or sequential failure or severe functional impairment of various vital organ systems of the body.
- Myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle).
- Papillary muscle rupture – acute life-threatening condition that leads to limitation of heart valve function.
- Pericardial tamponade – tamponade of the pericardial sac resulting in cardiac compression.
- Rupture (tear) of an aortic aneurysm – outpouching in the vessel wall.
- Traumatic rupture of a heart valve
- Ventricular septal rupture – defect in the ventricular septum.
Infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99).
- Sepsis (blood poisoning)
- Toxic shock syndromes (toxic shock syndrome, TSS; synonym: tampon disease) – severe circulatory and organ failure caused by bacterial toxins (usually enterotoxin of the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus, less commonly streptococcus, then called streptococcal-induced toxic shock syndrome).
Liver, gallbladder, and bile ducts-pancreas (pancreas) (K70-K77; K80-K87).
- Liver rupture (liver tear)
- Pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas)
Mouth, esophagus (esophagus), stomach, and intestines (K00-K67; K90-K93).
- Gastrointestinal diseases with acute bleeding such as ventriculi ulcer (gastric ulcer).
- Hematoperitoneum – accumulation of blood in the abdominal cavity.
- Ileus (intestinal obstruction)
- Peritonitis (inflammation of the peritoneum)
Neoplasms (C00-D48)
- Pheochromocytoma – catecholamine-producing tumor of the chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla (85% of cases) or sympathetic ganglia (nerve cord that runs along the spine in the thoracic (chest) and abdominal (stomach) regions) (15% of cases). The latter is also called extraadrenal (outside the adrenal gland) pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma
Symptoms and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings not classified elsewhere (R00-R99).
- Ascites (abdominal dropsy)
- Hypovolemic shock – shock due to acute volume deficiency.
- Cardiogenic shock – shock due to acute pump failure (acute right heart failure (RHV), acute left heart failure (LHV).
- Neurogenic shock – shock due to irritation of the autonomic nervous system as a result of painful injury.
- Polyuria – amount of urine > 2l/day.
- Septic shock – shock due to severe generalized infection resulting in disruption of peripheral circulatory regulation with relative volume deficiency due to vascular dilatation.
- Excessive sweating
- Volume deficiency due to vomiting, diarrhea (diarrhea), hormonal dysfunction.
Genitourinary system (kidneys, urinary tract – sex organs) (N00-N99).
- Renal rupture (kidney rupture)
Injuries, poisoning, and other consequences of external causes (S00-T98).
- Allergic reaction, unspecified (e.g.B. bee or wasp sting; insect stings are the most common triggers of severe anaphylaxis in adulthood and the second most common in childhood).
- Anaphylactic shock due to food allergy (most common trigger of severe anaphylaxis in childhood)
- Anaphylactic shock, unspecified.
- Bleeding into large body cavities/soft tissues as a result of trauma
- Blood loss due to injuries
- Drainage of large effusions
- Fat embolism – occlusion of vessels by penetration of fat droplets from the tissue.
- Fractures (bone fractures)
- Air embolism – occlusion of vessels by penetration of gas bubbles into the bloodstream.
- Splenic rupture (rupture of the spleen)
- Postoperative bleeding complications
- Burns
