- - - - At this stage the body is unable to keep up and the patients stats will begin to diminish.
      - Going, going, going....
    - - At this point the body is completely unable to adequately perfuse the tissues and essentially gives up. This is when cell death occurs.
      - ...Gone
    - - Perfusion is able to be maintained through the bodies natural defenses. This includes increasing Cardiac output, release of ADH and aldersertone, and also the release of epinephrine.
