Ch.14&15 Quiz Flashcards
what is shock
inadequate tissue perfusion to deliver oxygen and nutrients to support vital organs and cell function
In shock, cells use aerobic or anaerobic metabolism?
anaerobic
Arterial Blood Gases:
pH?
PaCO2?
HCO3?
PaO2?
O2 sat?
7.35-7.45
35-40mm Hg
22-26
80-100mm Hg
>94%
metabolic acidosis ph?
commonly related to what type of failure?
bicarb?
Manifestations?
low pH <7.35
renal failure
low bicarb <22 mEq/L
- HA
- Confusion
- Drowsiness
- ↑ respiratory rate/depth
- ↓ blood pressure
- ↓ cardiac output
- Dysrhythmias
- Shock
what is metabolic acidosis?
what is metabolic alkalosis?
What is respiratory acidosis?
What is respiratory alkalosis?
Metabolic acidosis occurs when the body produces too much acid, or when the kidneys are not removing enough acid from the body.
is a pH imbalance in which the body has accumulated too much of an alkaline substance, such as bicarbonate
is a condition that occurs when the lungs cannot remove all of the carbon dioxide the body produces. This causes body fluids, especially the blood, to become too acidic.
is a condition marked by low levels of carbon dioxide in the blood due to breathing excessively
Metabolic alkalosis ph?
what can cause this? (2)
bicarb?
manifestations?
high pH >7.45
Commonly r/t vomiting or gastric suction because it reduces the amount of body fluid
high bicarb>26 mEq/L
- Symptoms r/t ↓calcium
- Respiratory depression
- Tachycardia
- Symptoms of hypokalemia (potassium deficient)
respitory acidosis ph?
PaCO2?
What is it related to?
manifestations?
what is respiratory acidosis?
low pH<7.35
PaCO2 >42 mm Hg
Always r/t respiratory problem with inadequate CO2 excretion
- Sudden increased pulse
- ↑ pulse
- ↑ respiratory rate
- ↑ BP
- Mental changes
- Feeling of head fullness
- Potential ↑ ICP
is a condition that occurs when the lungs cannot remove all of the carbon dioxide the body produces. This causes body fluids, especially the blood, to become too acidic
Respiratory alkalosis pH?
PaCO2?
Always related to?
manifestations?
what is respiratory alkalosis?
High pH > 7.45
PaCO2 < 35 mm Hg
Always r/t hyperventilation
- Lightheadedness
- Inability to concentrate
- Numbness/tingling
- Loss of consciousness
is a condition marked by low levels of carbon dioxide in the blood due to breathing excessively
two “types” of shock
relevant (body just thinks it doesn’t have enough fluid) & absolute (body doesnt have enough)
types of shock? (5)
- Hypovolemic: shock resulting from decreased intravascular volume due to fluid loss
- Cardiogenic: shock resulting from impairment or failure of myocardium
- Septic: shock from overwhelming infection: shock resulting from overwhelming infection causing relative hypovolemia
- Neurogenic: shock resulting from loss of sympathetic tone causing relative hypovolemia
- Anaphylactic: sever allergic reaction: severe allergic reaction producing vasodilation/relative hypovolemia
4 stages of shock
- Initial insult
- Compensatory
- Progressive
- Irreversible
Manifestations of compensatory stage of shock?
body pushes/pulls blood from? 3
what happens to BP?
- cool clammy skin
- decreased urine output
- hypoactive bowel sounds
- skin
- kidneys
- GI tract
BP remains within normal limits
what happens in progessive stage of shock?
do all organs suffer?
vasoconstriction/ vasodilation?
mental status?
efficiency of lungs?
CO2 increase or decrease?
what happens to the alveoli?
what type of edema occurs?
- Regulation mechanisms can no longer compensate
- All organs suffer from hypoperfusion
- Vasoconstriction continues
- Mental status further deteriorates
- Lungs being to fail
- Pulmonary blood flow causes further hypoxemia
- Carbon dioxide increases
- Alveoli collapse
- Pulmonary edema occurs
Irreversible stage of shock:
what organs are damaged?
hypo- or hyper-tension?
what two organs FAIL?
___ acidosis and ___ acidosis occurs
close to death?
- Severe organ damage with no response to treatment
- Hypotension continues
- Renal and liver failure
- Necrotic tissue toxins
- Metabolic acidosis and lactic acidosis
- Multiple organ failure
- Imminent death
what stage of shock is characterized by a normal BP?
Compensatory
