Lecture 9: Shock II and III Flashcards
What is the goal in dx shock
determine extent of organ injury and identify cause
what initial dx do you want to do for suspected shock
- Vitals: HR, RR, temp, pulse, BP
- Venous or arterial blood gas with lactate
- POCUS
- CBC/chem, UA, coags, blood typing
What monitoring equipment do you want to use on patients with shock
ECG, BP, SPO2, serial pocus exams
how can you monitor tissue perfusion
- Body temp
- HR, RR
- MM and CRT
- MAP (70-100mmHg)
- Urine production
- Central venous pressure
what are the 4 quadrants for abdominal POCUS
- Diaphragmatic- hepatic
- Spleno-renal
- Bladder and colon
- Hepato-renal
what can you assess with abdominal POCUS
- Free fluid
- Free air
- Gall bladder wall edema
4, gastrointestinal motility
what are we looking at and what wrong
gallbladder wall edema- typically seen with anaphylaxis
Abdominal POCUS- what do white arrows indicate
gas shadowing, could be due to perforated bowel
what is indicated by E
free fluid
when ultrasounding heart/ CVC in shock patient- what does a greater collapse of the CVC tell you
fluid responsive patient
what is normal lactate in dogs and cats
<2.5mmol/L
shock leads to what type of hyperlactatemia
type A
change in lactate or ___ is better predictor of survival than a single measurement
lactate clearance
lactate measurements can be used to guide resuscitative efforts in __
hypovolemia
What does high lactate indicate about oxygen delivery and uptake
inadequate delivery and uptake—> inadequate tissue perfusion
how can you increase oxygen content when you see high lactate
RBC transfusion, oxygen supplementation
how can you increase o2 delivery when you see high lactate
fluid therapy, vasopressors, inotropes
How do you measure cardiac output
pulmonary arterial catheter
what measurements can you obtain with pulmonary arterial catheter
central venous pressure, pulmonary arterial pressure, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, cardiac output, mixed venous blood oxygen content
What are the pros for pulmonary artery catether
- Determine fluid volume status
- Determine oxygen content of arterial and mixed venous blood
- Determine oxygen delivery, consumption and extraction
what are the cons of pulmonary artery catheter
arrhythmias, damage to valves, risk of hemorrhage, risk of pulmonary thromboembolism
if you want to measure mixed venous oxygen saturation must place a __
pulmonary artery catheter
what does the measurement of mixed venous oxygen saturation determine
difference between oxygen supply and demand
if patients SvO2 is decreasing what does that mean
condition is deteriorating
