exam 1 part 2 Flashcards
4 types of shock
Cardiogenic
Hypovolemic
Distributive
Obstructive
common theme between all shocks
hypoperfusion
Due to: Systolic or Diastolic dysfunction of the heart, dysrhythmias, or structural factors
Congestive HF : issue with the myocardium
cardiogenic shock
tx for cardiogenic shock
: Nitrates, inotropes (dobutamine), diuretics, Beta Blocker
External loss of whole blood or loss of other bodily fluids
d/t either hemorrhage from trauma, surgery, or a GI bleed
Other: vomiting, diarrhea, excessive diuresis, DI, DM
absolute hypovolemic shock
Pooling of blood or fluids, fluid shifts, internal bleeding, massive vasodilation
d/t: Bowel obstruction, burns, ascities, fx of long bones, ruptured spllen, hemothorax, severe pancreatitis
Massive vasodilation d/t sepsis
relative hypovolemic shock
only shock with bradycardia
neurogenic shock
loss of sympathetic tone- massive vasodilation- hypotension, bradycardia
neurogenic shock
what is neurogenic shock defined as
spinal cord injury and/or disease at or above T5
tx for neurogenic
Vasopressors, atropine for bradycardia
Hypersensitivity reaction to a sensitizing substance
ALLERGIC REACTION
anaphylactic shock
Epinephrine, antihistamines, H2-blockers (Zantac), Bronchodilators (albuterol), Steroids
given for anaphylactic shock
lab for septic shock
serum lactate level
patient with septic shock
HYPOTENSION (MASSIVE VASODILATION), TACHYCARDIA(HEART TRYING TO KEEP UP), TACHYPNEA, FEVER/HYPOTHERMIA
Physical obstruction that impedes the filling or outflow of blood from the heart.
Reduction in cardiac output.
obstructive shock
what could cause obstructive shock
cardiac tamponade, pneumothorax, pulmonary embolism
all distributive shocks have what in common
vasodilation; neurogenic, anaphylactic, septic
why are you getting lactate levels for septic shock
because they have poor o2 delivery which means more lactate
impairment of heart to pump effectively from a NON-cardiac reason
obstructive shock
mg big take away
respiratory assessments! because it affects upper half of body
does MS have flares
yes ; comes and goes
may have to straight cath themselves
MS
muscle spasticity
MS; can use muscle relaxants
prophylactic seizure med
trammidol
