Q

children blood volume

A

Children have a higher blood volume and CO relative to size in comparison with adults. However they have a lower total blood volume. Therefore a lot less significant injuries such bleeding from scalp can cause hypovalemic shock. Children are good at vasocontricting, So a drop in BP is a very late sign of shock.
