called "shock", or relative hypovolemia. Neurogenic shock, commonly called spinal shock, is a

form of relative hypovolemia. The clinicalpresentation of neurogenic shock differs from

hemorrhagic shock in that there is no catecholamine release and this no pallor

(vasoconstriction), tachycardia, or sweating. The patient will have a decreased BP but the HR

will be normal or slow, and the skin is usually warm, dry and pink
