Q

Ventilation:

A

gas exchange in the respiratory system (i.e., mechanics of air moving in and out of the lungs)
2 types of ventilation:
Pulmonary ventilation: total exchange of gases between atmosphere & lungs
Alveolar ventilation: exchange of gases within gas exchange portion of lung

Q

why body changes to anaerobic

A

Anaerobic- body has lack of blood (not being pumped fast enough or loss of blood) therefore lack of oxygen- so must convert to anaerobic-

Q

what happens in anaerobic metabolism

A
  • glycolysis is to slow to make enough ATP that body needs
  • so Pyruvate is converted into lactic acid which heart can use as fuel.
  • however this accumulates in cell & diffuses into extracellular fluid, damaging internal and external portions of cell as to acidic (E.g. lactic acidosis in shock)

Q

WHY DO WE CARE ABOUT ATP PRODUCTION

A

because lactic acid impairs Sodium-Potassium pump operation
-this results in excess sodium in cells- causes cellular oedema & increased cell membrane permeability
-Results in cellular death & release of intracellular contents to extracellular space causing further damage
-Lactic acid accumulates in intracellular & extracellular spaces
Causes further damage

Q

Sympathetic response

A

Extrinsic reflexes and Higher neural control centre (chemo and baro receptors) activate sympathetic response.
-epinephrine & norepinephrine released, AND activation of alpha & beta (adrenergic) receptors
-Alpha receptors: vasoconstriction
Constriction of small arterioles & arteries, increased peripheral vascular resistance
-Beta 1 receptors: increase in heart rate and force of contraction
-B2 receptors: vasodilatation of skeletal muscle & relaxation of bronchioles
Increasing HR & systemic vasoconstriction, as well as dilation of bronchioles in the lung – fight or flight!

Q

REnin angiotensin aldosterone system

A

Kidneys: major role in regulating arterial BP & altering blood volume
Kidney perfusion decreases when arterial BP drops
In response, kidneys produce & release renin from juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA)
Renin catalyses reactions producing Angiotensin 2 (in blood)
Angiotensin II acts on blood vessels, causing vasoconstriction
Also acts on adrenal gland, causing aldosterone release
Causes kidney tubules to increase sodium reabsorption, resulting in more fluid being retained (water follows salt; thus, vascular blood volume & arterial blood pressure increased)
Contributes to long-term BP regulation

Q

hypovalemic shock

A
  • Diminished blood volume resulting in inadequate vascular filling – i.e. no blood/fluid in the circulatory system
  • Most common form of shock
  • May also cause third-space losses, where extracellular fluid shifts from the vascular compartment to interstitial space (surrounding tissues)
  • Occurs with acute loss of 15-20% of circulating volume (70kg adult 850mls
  • Acute, fatal haemorrhagic shock categorised by metabolic acidosis, hypothermia & coagulopathy

Q

hypovaleic shock compesatory mechanisms

A

Compensation- your bodies little (periphreal) vessels tighten up to try and keep up O2 levels

Q

hypovalemic shock-The “Deadly” Trauma Triad:

A

as core temperature decreases, so does body’s ability to stop bleeding as cold temp increasing blood viscosity. which the body then tries to correct by vasodilating- causing more bleeding
coagulopathy-(lactic acidosis)-acidosis(decreased myocardial efficiency)-hypothermia(inhibiting coagulation cascade)

Q

cardiogenic shock

A
  • Heart pumps blood insufficiently to meet body’s demands
  • Stroke volume & cardiac output is reduced
  • Coronary artery perfusion eventually impaired due to increased preload and afterload so no oxygenation occurs around body
  • observed with-Decreased cardiac output, Hypotension, Hypo-perfusion, Indications of tissue hypoxia

Q

intrinsic and exstrinsic effects of cardiogenic shock

A

intrinsic-MI (most common cause of cardiogenic shock), Arrhythmia, Valve defect, Ventricular aneurysm
extrinsic-Pulmonary embolism
Tension pneumothorax
Cardiac tamponade

17
Q

obstructive shock

A

Due to mechanical obstruction of blood flow through central circulation (great veins, heart or lungs)
Causes increased right heart pressure due to impaired function (blood backlogging)
Pressures continue to increase, despite impaired venous return to heart

causes-Pulmonary embolism (common cause – lodges in part of lungs, impairing normal perfusion & increasing pressure of RV)
Dissecting aortic aneurysm
Pneumothorax
Haemothorax
Atrial myxoma (tumor)
Abdominal evisceration into thoracic cavity (ruptured hemidiaphragm)

18
Q

distributive shock

A

Although blood volume has not changed for some reason vasculature expands until normal blood volume doesn’t fill circulatory system
Blood volume is redistributed, because circulatory vasculature expands, blood is randomly placed around body.
2 main causes-Decreased sympathetic control,
Excessive vasodilatory substances released
-includes neurogenic, anaphalaxtic shock, septic shock

19
Q

neurogenic shock

A

Neurogenic shock is also known as spinal shock -common-among patients with a spinal cord injury above the mid-thoracic region, due to interruption of the outflow transmission from the vasomotor centre. Spinal shock may or may not be transient.

20
Q

septic shock

A
  • May occur as a result of bacterial, fungal, viral or parasitic infection (bacterial most common)
  • Infection: pathogen invades body & overcomes host defences
  • Pathogen colonises, binding toll-like receptors (TLRs) on surface of immune cells (monocytes)
  • Initiates innate immune response to control infection with release of pro-inflammatory cytokines
  • Pro-inflammatory response (causes Oedema to occur around infection site; variety of organisms contained within fluid- which stop infection)
  • This promotes healing by limiting movement of infection, providing essential nutrients, & attracting immune cells
21
Q

when infection reaches blood-septic shock

A

If infection enters bloodstream, affecting locations distant to site of origin, pro-inflammatory processes may be amplified
May cause profound & systemic state of inflammation
(this only alows infection to travel around body faster)

22
Q

what body does to try and inhibit infection

A

-Macrophages release cytokines
- these exaggerate vasodilation, increasing cellular permeability to assist transportation of pro-inflammatory mediators to site
-Complement pathway also initiated
IL-1β & IL-6 stimulate hypothalamus to increase body temperature, accelerating tissue repair & inhibiting bacterial reproduction

23
Q

sepsis

A

when immune system can not clear infection and it moves to the blood. Occurs with imbalance in regulatory mechanisms between pro- & anti-inflammatory mediators
Anti-inflammatory cytokines include IL-4, IL-10, IL-11, IL-13
Excessive pro-inflammatory response & failure of anti-inflammatory mediators to provide negative feedback

24
Q

CONCEQUENCES OF SEPSIS

A

Causes altered coagulation, endothelial cell damage, widespread vasodilation, increased capillary permeability, & abnormal blood flow, reduced perfusion of vital organs
THIS LEADS TO….
-Hypovalemia due to peripheral pooling of blood & fluid loss into interstitial space
-organ dysfunction due to hypo-perfusion
as abnormal blood flow results in endothelial cell disruption, causing capillary leakage and impaired gas exchange.
-VO2 is increased without raised tissue metabolic activity, resulting in mitochondrial dysfunction
-Lactic acidosis occurs with switch to anaerobic metabolism

25
Q

MODS

A

Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) may develop with hypoperfusion & hypoxemia

26
Q

DIC

A

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).
-widespread bleeding and coagulation in the vasculature, causing tissue ischaemia and aiding MODS development]
2 stages-thrombotic phase, Fibrinolytic phase

27
Q

qSOFA?

A

how to identify sepsis

  • WHEN U GET TWO OR MORE OF THESE THINGS
  • rr 22+
  • CHANGE IN MENTAL STATUS
  • SYSTOLIC BP OF LESS THAN 100MMhG
28
Q

sepsis to septic shock

A

Septic shock then occurs, where sepsis is present despite adequate fluid resuscitation
Occurs as end result of systemic vasodilation & fluid leak into interstitial spaces

29
Q

ARDS Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)

A

Potentially lethal pulmonary injury  pulmonary oedema

30
Q

Acute Renal Failure (ARF)

A

Sudden interruption of renal function

In septic shock, ARF caused by disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)

31
Q

Severe shock leads to five major complications:

A
  • ARDS
  • Acute renal failure
  • Gastrointestinal ulceration
  • DIC
  • MODS
