Evaluate the implementation of a standardized mobile resuscitation model to manage SWOT within a large acute care hospital setting.
Immediately upon identification of SWOT, the SWOT Team will be activated by clinicians to respond to the patient bedside. Clinicians on-site will initiate patient care as directed by hospital protocol. Upon arrival, the SWOT Team will take over the management of patient care. The team will include 1-2 intensivists and multiple clinicians with clearly defined roles, dependent upon clinical presentation. The mobile resuscitative platform equipped with critical care technology will be delivered to the bedside (refer to appendix for full equipment content). The SWOT Team will implement goal-directed therapy using real-time monitoring and advanced diagnostic point-of-care tools. ultrasound, arterial and central lines will be placed by the intensivist(s) to monitor the physiology of the patient during treatment in real-time. Other team members (RNs, Respiratory Therapist's, residents, anesthesiologists, and technicians) will place the patient on continuous ECG and SPO2 monitoring, continuous capnographic monitoring via nasal canula or Endotracheal tube, and continuous cerebral and regional NIRS monitors. Point-of-care laboratory values will also be measured. Resuscitative interventions will be performed as directed by team leader to target the following physiological target parameters: * SpO2 \> 85% * PaO2 \> 50 mmHg * NIRS \> 65% * Lactate normal or trending down * EtCO2 \>20 mmHg * Mean Arterial Pressure \> 65 mmHg * SVO2 \> 60%

Time to Shock Reversal
Duration in minutes from activation of the SWOT Team to shock reversal, defined as stable arterial pressure (SBP \> 90 mmHg) without requirement for vasopressor administration for greater than 24 hours and normalization of systemic and local perfusion measures of lab-measured lactate indicating improved systemic perfusion
Time frame: From 24 hours to 72 hours after initial shock event
30-day Mortality
Patient all-cause mortality will be assessed at 30 days following initial identification of shock symptoms
Time frame: 30 days after initial shock event
