Q

nursing mgmt for shock

A

Nutritional support - early enteral feeding, increased metabolic needs
Skin integrity - increased risk for pressure ulcers, skin care
psychological support - end of life decision making, communication

Q

4 categories of shock

A

hypovolemic
cardiogenic
obstructive
distributive

22
Q

all 4 categories of shock have issues with

A

perfusion - reason/cause differs

23
Q

in hypovolemic shock there is

A

inadequate intravascular blood volume

24
Q

in cardiogenic shock the

A

heart fails to act an an effective pump

25
Q

in obstructive shock there is

A

physical impairment to adequate circulating blood flow

26
Q

in distributive shock there is (septic)

A

widespread vasodilation and decreased vascular tone resulting in relative hypovolemia

27
Q

all categories of shock have how many stages

A

4

28
Q

cause of hypovolemic shock

A
external loss (car accident, trauma, hemorrhage)
Internal sequestrations (hemorrhage, ascites, pelvic fxr)
29
Q

presentation of hypovolemic shock

A

decreased cardiac output, right arterial pressure

increased systemic vascular resistance

30
Q

mgmt of hypovolemic shock

A

treat cause
fluid resuscitate
check BP
monitor Pulmonary Artery Occlusion Pressure (PAOP)

31

what labs will be drawn for hypovolemic shock

A

CBC, type and screen

BUN and Creat

32
Q

cause of cardiogenic shock
