Q

why does narrowing of pulse pressure occur in shock?

A

because diastolic will inc because the catecholamines inc the VR from vasoconstriction and the systolic will decrease because of the lack of flow

Q

what cardiovascular effects might occur from hypovolemic shock?

Study These Flashcards
A

dysrhythmias and ischemia, chest pain. my have MI. inc cardiac enzymes, myocardial depression and ventricular dilation

21
Q

what hepatic damage occurs during shock?

Study These Flashcards
A

dec blood flow dec metb of wastes and more sus. to infect.

ubc liver enzymes and bilirubin –> jaundice

22
Q

GI effects from shock?

Study These Flashcards
A

ischemia causes stress ulcers in stomach (inc risk of GI bleed)
bloody diarrhea
bacteria toxins may enter circulation via lymph
enteral feeding in shock states is recommended

23
Q

would there be an inc in bleeding or clotting in shock?

Study These Flashcards
A

bleeding due to DIC because all the clotting factors are consumed d/t over activation of inflm response.
might need platelets and clotting factor replacements

24
Q

why is there hyperglycaemia in shock?

Study These Flashcards
A

bc the release of the catecholamines, cortisol, glucaogns and inflm cytokines and mediators are released and so there is hyperglycemia and insulin resistance to mobilize glucose for cellular metb

glyconeogensis occurs in the liver and gluconeogensis from proteins and fats cause hyperglycaemia

25
what medical mgmt is there for shock?
early enteral support, aggressive hyperglycaemic control w IV insulin, antacids, histamine 2 blockers, DVT prophylaxis
26
how does RL help with the acid-base problem?
it has lactate ion that converts to bicarbonate and buffers the acidosis
27
whats a disadvantage of using an isotonic solution for fluid replacement?
some of it is lost in the interstitial compartment d/t cellular permeability from the shock
28
why are colloids better choices for shock therapy?
contain molecules that are too large to pass through capillary membranes and they expand the intravascular volume by exerting oncotic pressure and pull fluid into the intravascular space (none is lost) also longer duration and less vol is required
29
what are some risks of hypovolemic shock (think external and internal)
external: trauma, sx, diarrhea, vomiting, diabetes insipidus, diuresis internal: ascites, hemorrhage, burns, peritonitis, dehydration
30
what are some medications that you might give for hypovolemic shock?
``` dobutamine nitroglycerin dopamine antiarrthymic medications mechanical assistive devices ```
31
what does dobutamine do?
inotropic effects (inc HR, contractility)
32
what does nitroglycerin do?
acts as a vasodilator and reduces preload and at high doses acts as an arterial vasodilator
33
what does dopamine do?
sympathomimetic agent. vasoactive effects.. inc the HR and CO
34
what are some risk factors for septic shock?
immunosuppression, extremes of ages, malnourishment, chronic illness, invasive procedures, pneumonia
35
what is the patho behind septic shock?
immune response causes inflm response and inc cap perm and vasodilation
36
what are some early signs of septic shock?
BP remains normal at first, tachycardia begins, hyperthemia, flushing, tachypnea, bounding pulses, possible GI upset, inc serum glucose and insulin resistance, confusion and agitation, inc lactate levels, WBC high or low
37
what are some major signs of septic shock
BP drops, skin cool, pale and mottled, temp normal or low, Hr and rr remain high, oliguria, MODS and possible death
38
how soon do u want to treat sepsis?
first hour
39
what is neurogenic shock?
vasodilation resulting from loss of balance between parasympathetic and sympathetic stimulation-> predom parasympathetic causing bradycardia and drop in BP
40
what are some causes of neurogenic shock?
spinal cord injury, spinal anesthesia, depressant action of meds, glucose deficiency
41
medical mgmt for neurogenic shock?
restore sympathetic tone by stabilization of spinal cord injury glucose if insulin shock
42
what is some nursing mgmt for neurogenic shock?
prevention- fter spinal ro epi, important to elevate HOB to 30 degrees to prevent spread of anesthetic spinal cord cardiovascular and neuralgic support, compression socks, elevate feet to prevent pooling
43
what is anaphylactic shock?
mast cells release vasoactive substances (histamine, bradykinin)
44
S&S of anaphylactic shock?
resp stress (wheezing, stridor), tachycardia, prolonged cap refill, neurlogical compromise and possible pruitis, abdominal cramping
45
medical mgmt of anaphylactic shock?
epinephrine, benadryl, albuterol via neb, CPR, intubation, IV inert
46
what is multiple organ dysfunction syndrome?
develops with cut illness that compromises perfusion | occurs at the end of septic shock
47
which organ fails first in MODS?
lungs-> dyspnea, resp failure
48
S&S of MODS?
hotn, hypoxemia, hypercapnia, adventitious breath sounds, inc creatinine, dec Burnie output, thrombocytopenia, coagulation abnormalities, lactic academy, metb acidosis, altered LOC, elevated LFTS, hyperbilirubenimia
