What steps would you take if one of your patients went into anaphylactic shock?

Weegy: Cardiovascular support is paramount during anaphylactic shock in order to keep the heart beating and delivering blood to the organs. Fundamental support during anaphylactic shock involves establishing an airway, supporting breathing and circulation. [ These are known by mnemonic ABC. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or CPR, will need to be instituted if breathing or the heart stops. Emergency workers may need to place an oxygen mask over the face or a breathing tube through the mouth in order to deliver enough oxygen to the blood. If the heart stops beating properly, emergency personnel may administer chest compressions, shocks from a defibrillator and drugs to support the cardiovascular system, explains the Mayo Clinic.
