What happens to heart rate in hypovolemia?
Severe. By stage 3, a person with hypovolemic shock will have lost more than 40% of their blood. The systolic pressure, or top number, of their blood pressure, will be 100 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) or lower. Their heart rate will increase to over 120 beats per minute (bpm).
