hypotension cardiogenic shock Flashcards
hypotension+ shock/cardiogenic shock/ 5 main etiologies
black box, in &out /
=>black box=
arrhythmogenic (the whole thing has a pb);
Poor contractility (specific parts of the heart has a pb)/
in=Reduced filling+
backflow/
out=Outflow obstruction
hint: cardiogenic pb: the blood does not come out as it should
hypotension+ shock/cardiogenic shock/ black box/
Arrhythmogenic (the whole thing)/
pathologies
Significant bradycardia or tachycardia
hypotension+ shock/cardiogenic shock/
black box/Poor contractility (specific parts of the heart has a problem)
pathologies
failure :
Left ventricular (LV) or
Right ventricular (RV) failure
hint: ventricle is what pushes the blood out n therefore responsible for the failure
hypotension+ shock/cardiogenic shock/
cardiac tamponade/VS + lung
VS: hypotension & tachycardia+ tachypnea +
pulsus paradoxus
lung= dyspnea = SOB
hypotension+ shock/cardiogenic shock/
cardiac tamponade/classic findings in
HEENT
heart
Msk
HEENT: elevated jugular venous pressure /
heart: muffled heart sounds.
Msk: Weakness,
hypotension+ shock/cardiogenic shock/cardiac tamponade/
etiology in general
a consequence of pericardial effusion
