M5 Perfusion 4 Flashcards
4 stages of shock
initial
compensatory
progressive
refractory
What to do with MODS in end stage
Shift care from pt to family
Gotta have that talk
Compensatory shock S/S
Compensation
Tachycardia
Cold/clammy skin
Circulation is now shunted just to vital organs
kidneys will die due to poor perfusion within
S/S
20MIN
oliguria
anuria
Cardiogenic shock 101
Not providing enough oxygenated blood to organs
Most common cause of septic shock
UTIs!!!
Biggest septic shock S/S
LACTATE LEVEL ELEVATED
Altered consciousness
Restlessness
Irritability
Tachycardia
=
____
on TEST
HYPOXIA
hypoxia 1st check
Pulse oxymetry
VTE=
Pulmonary embolism
or
DVT
Rx interventions for Cardiogenic shock
pressors
Dobutamine
Dopamine
Ionocore
blood pressure support
Body systems that will kick in at shock
Epi/Norepi
RAAS
Aldosterone =
sodium and water excretion
potassium retention
How often to do vitals for CarioShock patients on BP meds
q15m
Other cardiogenic shock meds
pressors
digoxin
diuretics
Only progressive cardiogenic shock solution
Transplant
Hypovolemic shock 101
low volume
15% of intravascular volume loss
according to instructor
Biggest causes of hypovolemic shock
Hemorrhage
Burns
Total body edema
ANASARCA
urinary output after burn
initial
progressive
Low
oliguria
anuria
then high after 72h
After 72h during the high output what are we worried about
Hypervolemia
fluid is rushing back into vessels from body
What to give when pt has hypervolemia
Diuretic
Why do we do isotonic solutions when transufing
Same as blood
Will stay where you put it
ADH =
H2O
Not enough ADH with diabetes insipidus, pt will
pee out all volume
hypovolemic shock
To prevent this with diabetes insipidus, give
Desmopressin
Due to shock, blood will shunt to brain and heart
Stomach will become
what to do
Paralytic
NG suction
Nursing management for hypovolemic shock of elderly and very young
slow infusion
easy to toss pt into hypervolemia
Modified trendeleberg
Supine but legs are up

Aneurisms
Bulge or ballooning of blood vessel
2 types of anurism
Saccular - small on one side, like a hernia
Fusiform - vessel expands on both sides
Aneurism in upper aorta
Difficulty swallowing
Difficulty speaking
Heart burn
Age of most common aneurisms
Other risk factors
55 and older
FAMILY HISTORY BIG
connective tissue problems
smoking
hypertension
To prevent aneurisms manage
Hypertension
Most prone demographic for aneurisms
White male
Gut problems are usually what triage category
Emergent
may be bleed
may be infection
When you auscultate and feel belly, an abdominal aortic aneurism will feel and sound like
Bruit
Procedures to prevent large aneurisms
Surgery - sowing a mesh graft inside the aneurism to reinforce the area
Nonsurgical - endovascular deployment of that mesh, done at cath lab
What s/s indicates a worsening
WORST back burning pain
Pain in groin area
Impending doom
aneurism is dissecting (stretching with every beat)
most likely will die
S/S of hermorrhage
Tachycardia
Low bp
MAP drop
diaphoresis
cold/clammy skin
Tachypnea
Who ALWAYS does the first dressing change
The surgeon
Core measure for surgery
antibiotics 30 min before cut
ASD Atrio septal defect
Abnormal communication between left and right atria
3 types of ASD
Ostium Primum
Ostium Secundum
Sinus Venosus
Ostium Primum ASD
Abnormal opening at bottom of atrial septum
Ostium secundum ASD
abnormal opening at middle of atrial septum
Sinus venosus ASD
Abnormal opening at top of atrial septum
Atrial Septal Defect 101
Left to right shunt
Blood flows from high pressure left to low pressure right atrium
Increased pulmonary flow lead to elevated pulmonary pressure
Increase in right atrum pressure =
increase in right ventricle volume overload and dilation
S/S of ASD
mostly asymptomatic
CHF in third or fourth decade of life
Resp infections
Poor weight gain
Poor exercise tolerance
Diagnosing ASD
Auscultate
CXR
ECG
Cardiac cath
ASD Auscultate
Soft systolic murmur
ASD CXR
Increased pulmonary markings
