Shock Flashcards
what is shock?
inadequate tissue perfusion
leads to cellular dysfunction
then organ failure
possible identifiable consequences of shock:
hypotension tachycardia decreased urine output adventitious breath sounds tissue hypoxia metabolic acidosis
4 types of shock
- hypovolemic
- cardiogenic
- distributive
- obstructive
3 types of distributive shock
neurogenic
anaphylactic
septic
type of shock due to blood/plasma loss due to burns or peritonitis
(extracellular fluid losses–> diarrhea, dehydration)
hypovolemic shock
what happens to the vitals during hypovolemic shock
- decreased BP
- increased HR
- decreased CVP (central venous pressure)
- poor capillary refill
type of shock that is due to decreased cardiac output
cardiogenic shock
what are the causes of cardiogenic shock?
- cardiac surgery
- dysrhythmias
- primary pump failure
- myocarditis
- cardiomyopathy
- heart failure
- AV block (dysrhythmia)
- SVT (supraventricular tachycardia = type of dysrhythmia)
cardiac output formula
cardiac output = stroke volume X HR
type of shock that is a vascular problem that prevents the blood from being distributed properly
distributive shock (vasogenic shock)
type of shock that is a massive vasodilation (loss of sympathetic nervous system tone)
- happens in spinal cord injuries
- full bladder
neurogenic shock
what happens to the BP during neurogenic shock>
decreases;
bc of vasodilation
type of shock where there is a massive vasodilation and capillary leakage
(hypersensitivity reaction)
anaphylactic shock
RESPIRATORY symptoms during anaphylactic shock
- stridor
- cough/wheeze
- rhinitis
CUTANEOUS symptoms during anaphylactic shock
- flushing
- urticarial/hives
- angioedema
CARDIOVASCULAR symptoms during anaphylactic shock
- tachycardia
- arrhythmia
- hypotension
- hypovolemia
GASTROINTESTINAL symptoms during anaphylactic shock
- nausea/vomiting
- diarrhea
- abdominal pain
