SHOCK Flashcards
(27 cards)
TO BODY ORGANS AND TISSUES CAUSING LIFETHREATENING CELLULAR DYSFUNCTION
INADEQUATE BLOOD FLOW (PERFUSION
HEMODYNAMIC TERMS: amount of blood pumped into the aorta from the left ventricle
STROKE VOLUME
HEMODYNAMIC TERMS: amount of blood pumped into the aorta by the ventricle in one minute
CARDIAC OUTPUT
A pulse point that control scalp bleeding
TEMPORAL
A pulse point that control head and neck bleeding
CAROTID
A pulse point that control bleeding in
axilla, shoulder, and
upper chest
SUBCLAVIAN
A pulse point that control arm bleeding
BRACHIAL
A pulse point that controls bleeding in heand and wrist
RADIAL
A pulse point that controls upper leg bleeding
FEMORAL
A pulse point in the back of knee, to control lower leg bleeding
POPLITEAL
SNS: It increases heart rate, contractility and peripheral vasoconstriction
CATECHOLAMINES
TYPES OF SHOCK: Most common
–Etiology: HEMORRHAGE, BURNS, SEVERE DEHYDRATION, THIRD SPACE LOST, USE OF DIURETICS
HYPOVOLEMIC SHOCK
LOSS OF LARGE AMOUNT OF BLOOD INTERNALLY OR EXTERNALLY – ARTERIAL, VENOUS OR CAPILLARY
HEMORRHAGE
TYPES OF SHOCK: Pumping ability of the heart is compromised
–Etiology: MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION, CARDIAC AREST, LEFT AND RIGHT-SIDED HEART FAILURE
CARDIOGENIC SHOCK
TYPES OF SHOCK: Venous return or cardiac pumping action impeded because of obstruction
–Etiology: pulmonary embolism, pneumothorax
OBSTRUCTIVE SHOCK
TYPES OF SHOCK: Widespread vasodilatation
–Decreased peripheral resistance
DISTRIBUTIVE (VASOGENIC OR CIRCULATORY) SHOCK
LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH in ICUs
–Phases : WARM (early) vs COLD phase (late)
SEPTIC SHOCK
Imbalance between parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous stimulation of vascular smooth muscle, resulting in sustained vasodilatation
NEUROGENIC SHOCK
Widespread hypersensitivity reaction
–Vasodilatation as a result of hypovolemia and altered cellular metabolism
–Allergic reaction leading to histamine release
ANAPHYLACTIC SHOCK
____ increase capillary permeability and massive vasodilatation
HISTAMINES
_____ is the drug of choice given to reverse the vasodilatation
EPINEPHRINE
TYPES OF IVF in SHOCK : dextrose or electrolyte solutions)
CRYSTALLOIDS
Types of IVF in Shock: fluids stay intravascularly
increasing the ONCOTIC PRESSURE (albumin, dextran, plasma protein)
COLLOIDS
Transfusion reaction: urticaria, pruritus
HYPERSENSITIVITY
