Shock isn’t just emotional — in first aid, it’s a medical emergency where the body’s circulation fails, starving organs of oxygen and leading to collapse, unconsciousness, or worse.
In this episode, we break down how to recognise the signs and symptoms of shock. What’s the difference? Signs are what you see. Symptoms are what the patient feels and tells you.
We cover everything from dizziness and nausea to cool, clammy skin, rapid pulse, and confusion. Because spotting shock early — and acting fast — can save a life.
