Shock Flashcards
Types of shock?
Hypovolemic/cardiogenic and septic
Low output failure?
Hypovolemic/cardiogenic
Hot patient (vasodilation)?
Septic
Dilated arterioles, high venous return?
Septic
High TPR?
Hypovolemic/cardiogenic
High output failure?
Septic
Low TPR?
Septic
Cold, clammy patient (vasoconstriction)?
Hypovolemic/cardiogenic
Low cardiac output?
Hypovolemic/cardiogenic
What causes cardiogenic shock?
1) Acute coronary syndrome
2) Valvular dysfunctions
3) Tamponade
Main difference bt hypovolemic shock and cardiogenic shock?
1) Hypovolemix = low cardiac filling pressures
2) Cardiogenic schok = high cardiac filling pressures
Causes of neurogenic shock?
Spinal cord and CNS injury–presents with bradycardia and hypotension
Causes of obstructive shock?
1) Tamponade
2) PE
3) Tension pneumothorax
S/S of obstructive shock?
Hypotension, tachycardia, low CO
