Shock States Flashcards
Which are central shock states?
Cardiogenic
Obstructive
What are peripheral shock states?
Hypovolemic and distributive
Cardiogenic shock
When the heart is unable to circulate sufficient blood to maintain adequate peripheral oxygen delivery
Obstructive shock
Occurs when blood flow in the heart or great vessels becomes blocked
Hypovolemic shock
Occurs when the circulating blood volume does not deliver adequate oxygen and nutrients to the body
It can be exogenous (blood loss out of the body) or edogenous (blood loss within the body)
Distributive shock
Widespread dilation of the resistance vessels and capacitance vessels so the circulating blood volume pools in expanded vascular beds
3 common types of distributive shock
1) septic
2) neurogenic
3) anaphylactic
Phases of shock
Compensated
Decompensated
Irreversible
