    Dehydration.

    Explanation:

    The patient showed multiple signs of shock. Pale, cyanosis, lower blood pressure, higher heart pulse frequency shows that the body has difficulty to supply oxygen to the body.

    Most shock caused by dehydration, the body doesn't have enough water that makes the blood volume decline. This will cause the heart will have a harder time to pump enough blood.
