Shock States Flashcards
what is SIRS?
unchecked out of control systemic response of inflammatory/immune system
- warning sign of what is to come
SIRS criteria
diagnosis: 2+ present
HR gt 90 RR gt 20 -or- PaCO2 lt 32 T lt 36 -or- gt 38 leuk - WBC lt 4k -or- gt 12k - OR gt 10% immature neutrophils
in high risk pts that can’t be explained by other causes
SIRS
insult → pathophysiology x4
peripheral vasodilation
capillary permeability
microvascular clotting
cellular activation
what is shock?
broad category
initiated by insult → inadequate tissue perfusion comp to cell metabo reqs → cellular hypoxia + end organ dysfxn
what is compensated shock?
relatively stable may see early s/s shock
compensatory mechanisms: moderately effective
cause:
- rapidly corrected = minimal residual effects
- not corrected → uncompensated
what is MODS? x3
uncompensated shock worsens → MODS
involves 2+ organ systems (that weren’t previously failing)
altered organ function in acutely ill patients
organ system homeostasis cannot be achieved without intervention
compensatory mechanisms from compensated shock NO LONGER ADEQUATE
geriatric population & shock
- progression rapid
- reduced compensatory mechanisms
- pre-existing comorbs (renal failure, lung disease, cardiomyopathy) INTERVENE STATE
present in every type of shock
inadequate tissue perfsuion & cellular hypoxia
hemodynamic goals of therapy for shock x7
- MAP gt 60
- CVP 8-12
- CI gt 2.1
- UOP gt 0.5 mg/kg/hr
- SaO2 gt 92%
- SVO2 gt 70
- serum lactate lt 2 mmol/L
hypovolemic shock causes
- ABL/ongoing hemorrhage
- non-hemorrhage fluid depletion
- GI (v/d)
- burns
- polyuria
- aggressive pharm diuresis
- insensible losses
can lose how much via insensible losses + how?
1L/day; diaphoresis, open burn wounds, vents
hypovolemic shock is
loss or redistribution of volume
… (blood, plasma, or other body fluids) which result in decreased intravascular volume
obstructive shock is
mechanical obstruction impacting the cardiovascular system
… that decreases ventricular filling and/or emptying
end result: ↓ CO, tissue perfusion, O2 delivery
obstructive shock causes
↓ ventricular filling =
- cardiac tamponade
- tension pneumothorax
- vena cava compression/thrombus
- atrial mass or thrombus
↓ ventricular emptying
- PE (saddle embolism = sitting across either/both arteries)
saddle embolism is
thrombus sitting across either/both arteries
causes ↓ ventricular emptying → obstructive shock
