shock test!!! Flashcards
the 3 other types of shock
cardiogenic shock
hypovolemic Shock
metabolism shock
in the simplified view of the cardiovascular system.. the heart
serves as the pump
function of the heart
pushes blood with a lot of force
what does the right side of the heart do
pushes blood to the lungs to acquire oxygen
what does the left side of the heart do
pushes blood through the aorta, then to all body tissues
cardiogenic shock
body tissues don’t receive blood because of a faukty heart
what is usually the culrint of cardiogenic shock
the left side of the heart
coronary arteries
blood vessels that deliver blood to cardiac muscle and help them generate energy
what does a blockage of the coronary artery do»_space;»>
failure of heart muscle (heart attack)
what does a heart attack lead to
to a failure of blood flow to other tissues, leading to shock
the five coronary arteries (rdlcl)
right coronary artery
distal right coronary artery
left main coronary artery
circumflex coronary artery
left anterior descending
coronary artery
what are the two types of heart attacks
ischemia, infarction
ischemia of heart muscle
partial blockage leads to a limited blood supply to the heart
in most cases of ischemia to the heart///////
the heart is still strong enough to keep a person alive and breathing
in ischemia the heart cannot work hard enough….
to beat fast when a person exercises
what happens when the heart exerts itself too hard
chest pain
chest pain
angina pectoris
infarction of heart muscle
comes for complete blockage and leads to a failure of heart muscle
infarction to the heart usually comes from
a blood clot that suddenly embeds itself in a coronary artery
because of their sudden nature, heart attack are termed
acute myocardial infarctions (AMIs)
AMIs will lead to…..
health problems and likely necrosis of heart muscle
what is the most important coronary artery
left anterior descending artery
what is the most important chamber of the heart
left ventricle»> pushes blood through aortic valve and into the rest of the body
widow maker
first 1-2 cm of the left anterior descending artery after it branches off the left main coronary artery
the human body should contain how much blood
5 litres
hypovolemic shock occurs when
the body drops significantly under 5 litres of blood
different reasons for hypovolemic shock
blood loss
plasma loss
fluid loss
blood loss in relation to hypovolemic shock
injury to the body causes blood to exit the body or spill into body cavities
plasma loss in relation to hypovolemic shock
burns to the skin causes the loss of plasma
fluid loss in relation to hypovolemic shock
dehydration, diarrhea, vomiting or sodium causes a loss of water from the bloodstream
in all cases of hypovolemic shock
the condition gets more extreme as more fluid is lost
of how much of the blood results in death in hypovolemic shock
50% +
classification of hemorrhage: as blood is lost
heart rate increases, blood pressure slows down, the CNS becomes confused and declines
what is done to reverse hypovolemic shock
IV fluids, plasma transfusions, and/or blood transfusion to replace lost blood volume
IV fluids
saline, or slighly salty water
what can’t the administration. IV fluids, plasma trnasfusions, blood transfusions can’t be done too quickly
patients with hypovolemic shock, especially the elderly begin showing weakness in heart muscle
if too mcuh fluid is administered treating hypovolemic shoock
there would be a backup of fluid because the heart can’t pump it fast enough
a backup of fluid because the heart can’t pump it fast enough will lead to
cardiogenic pulmonary edema
metabolic shock is unique because
not a failure of oxygen delivery… but a failure of glucose delivery
to look closer at metabolic shock»>
must look a regulation of glucose delivery
sugars are digested and»_space;»
float through the body as glucose
cells have a chanel that allows glucose to enter
normally closed unless signaled by insulin
where in insulin made
in B-cells in the pancreas
when is insulin made and secreted
when glucose is detected in the blood stream
diabetes mellitus
disease characterized by a deficiency in insulin
type 1 diabetes is also knwon as
juevenile diabetes
type 1 diabetes
pancreas does not produce enough insulin for the body
type 2 diabetes is known as
adult onset diabetes
type 2 diabetes
body is desensitized to insulin»> result of obesity
why is type 2 diabetes usually the result of obesity
the body is too big or the pancreas is too weak to properly distribute insulin
what is gestational diabetes
a pregnant woman can’t produce enogh insulin for both herself and her unborn child> ends when pregnancy dies
what is the result of insufficient insulin
the body has poor regulation of its glucose levels
hyperglycemia in diabetics»>
too much sugar in the blood because it can’t blood
usually hyperglycemia leads to glucose being
taken in by the liver and stored in long chains of glycogen
in diabetes….. glucose in the blood
can’t enter liver cells and can’t be stored
what normally happens in hypoglycemia
body releases supplies of glycogen
in diabetes… glycogen in the liver
is never created
diabetic must eat several times a day or face
diabetic coma
without glucose to break down for enegry»»>
cells shift to the breakdown of lipids
lipids breakdown creates
toxic byproducts acetoacetic acid and acetone
acetoacetic acid and acetone are excreted through
the lungs and give off a fruity odor
if the body relys to much on lipid breakdown
too much acetoacetic acid» acidosis»> normal shock
excessive acidosis due to lipid breakdown
patients eventually fall unconscious»» diabetic coma
primary symptoms of diabetic coma
> > fruity breath
shocks of the airway
respiratory shock
anaphylactic shock
inhalation begins
with the nose, but can start with the mouth
after air being inhaled in the nose
in the nasal cavity.. air is warmed and moistened
what is after the nasal cavity
the pharynx
pharynx function
holds food and air
what is after the pharynx
epiglottis
epiglottis function
directs food down the esophagus and air down the larynx
what is after the epigottis»_space;> larynx
trachea
trachea is heavily coated in
in mucus and cilia and filters the air before it enters the lungs
at the entrance of the lungs….
the trachea splits into left and right bronchi
bronchi split into
smaller and smaller bronchioles»_space;> which then break into alveoli
bronchi can be categorized
based on how many branches have aready occured
at the base of the trachea there is …
division into left and right primary bronchi
the _____ bronchus is significantly bigger
right
all immediate divisions from the primary bronchi
secondary bronchi
how many secondary bronchi in the left lung
two
how many secondary bronchi in the right lung
three
which part of the lung has 3 lobes
right
branches from secondary bronchi
tertiary bronchi
branches after tertiary brinchi
4th order, 5th order etc….
when do bronchi become bronchioles…
no cartilage in the walls … only elastin
respiratory shock
failure of gas exchange in the lungs
respiratory shock is typically caused by
trauma to the lungs or airway
respiratory shock happens because
pleural effusion
atelectasis
pulmonary edema
pleural effusionn
pleural cavity has been compromised
atelectasis
air is not making it to the alveoli
pulmonary edema
alveoli are filled with fluid
each lung is surrounded by
two concentric sacs, together called the pleurae
more deep of sacs surrounding the lungs
visceral pleura
more superficial of sacs surrounding the lungs
parietal pleura
there should usually be what between pleurae and lungs
few millimeters of pleural fluid to lubricate (otherwise empty)
pneumothorax
air gets trapped in the pleural cavity
hemothorax
blood gets trapped in the pleural cavity
hemopneumothorax
Blood and air gets trapped in the pleural cavity
hydrothorax
water gets trapped in the pleural caviy
urinothorax
urine gets trapped in the pleural cavity
pyothorax
pus gets trapped in the pleural cavity
