Low blood pressure is an important clinical symptom and diagnostic indicator of shock. Regardless of what causes the shock, the presence of low blood pressure, along with cold limbs, cold sweat, reduced urine output, and an indifferent expression, indicates insufficient peripheral vascular perfusion. Prolonged insufficient perfusion can lead to damage to vital organs. Therefore, timely emergency treatment is essential to elevate blood pressure and save the patient's life. The initial steps include administering oxygen to ensure the oxygenation of vital organs, replenishing blood volume, using vasopressors, and providing timely emergency treatment to save the patient's life.
