Explanation

In hypovolemic shock, peripheral vasoconstriction leads to pale, cold, and clammy extremities as the body attempts to preserve blood flow to vital organs. Central venous pressure is usually low due to decreased blood volume. While bleeding can cause hypovolemia, it is not always detectable. Additionally, urine output typically decreases because of reduced renal perfusion.
