STAGES OF SHOCK : INITIAL STAGE

A
  • may not be clinically apparent
  • may be restless or anxious
  • metabolism changes from aerobic to anaerobic
  • lactic acid accumulates
  • must be removed by blood and broken doen by the liver
  • this requires O2
40
Q

INITIAL STAGE

A
  • baroreceptors detect a sustained decrease in the MAP
  • decreased circulating blood flow
  • natural physiologic responses are activated
  • vasoconstriction
  • increased cardiac contractions and HR
  • reversible at this point
41
Q

COMPENSATORY STAGE

A
  • attempted homeostaisis
  • MAP <10-15 and 25-35% volume loss

  • impaired GI motility
  • cool skin clammy
  • except septic shock where skin is warm and flushed
42
Q

COMPENSATORY STAGE

A
  • shunting blood from lungs=physiologic dead space
  • SNS stimulation increses myocardial O2 demand
  • decreased blood to kidneys
43
Q

PROGRESSIVE STAGE

A

MAP <20
begins when compensatory mechnisms fail
lactic acid accumulation
requires aggressive interventions to prevent multiorgan dysfunction syndrome and death

-decreased cellular perfusion and altere capillary permeability

  • movement of fluid from intravasculature to interstitium
  • hyperkalemia due to cellular destruction
44
Q

PROGRESSIVE STAGE

A
  • fluid movement into alveoli
  • CO begins to fall
  • myocardial dysfunction
  • GI system becomes ischemic
  • liver fails to metabolize drugs and wastes
  • failure of one organ system affects others
45
Q

REFRACTORY STAGE

A
  • exacerbation of aneorobic metabolism
  • accumulation of lactic acid
  • increased capillary permeability
  • hypotension and tachycardia worsen
  • decreased coronary blood flow
  • cerebral ischemia
  • hypoxemia
  • recovery unlikely
46
