ODC Left Shift
lowers demand
loves oxygen
low 2,3 DPG
low CO2
alkalosis
low temperature
ODC Right Shift
Releases oxygen
increases demand
increase 2,3 DPG
high CO2
acidotic
high temp
Decreased Preload
JVP decreased
fluid balance
turgor, skin
weight, daily
CVP <2 mmHg
urination (excessive)
mucous membranes dry
IVC not full or flat
N/V (excessive)
Excessively Increased Preload
JVP increased
fluid balance positive
CVP >6 mmHg
weight, increasing daily
HF symptoms (crackles, pink frothy sputum, peripheral edema, pulmonary edema)
IVC full
mucous membranes moist
What is afterload influenced by? (two things
Measured by trend in DBP and pulse pressure
DBP is the pressure in the arteries during diastole and informs afterload (increasing afterload > upward trend in DBP, downward trend > decr afterload)
Elevated DBP indicated v/d and lower DBP indicated v/d
Pulse Pressure (narrowed suggests v/c)
Decreased Afterload
fever
peripheral pulses bounding
skin hot & flushed
pulse pressure widening
cap refill < 3 seconds
DBP downward trend
Increased Afterload
skin cool & pale
SNS activation
peripheral pulses weak
pulse pressure narrowing (<25)
cap refill prolonged
doppler only pulses
DBP upward trend
