We developed the hydrodynamic approach to describe heavy ion collisions of medium energy, allowing for the emission of secondary particles. The compression, decompression and freeze-out stages of the forming hot spot have been examined. The shock wave that appears in the compression stage has a time dependent front. The calculated spectra of protons have been compared with experimental data. Due to its simplicity, the model can be used for a convenient parameterization of the experimental data.
