- beta 1 meds (act on the heart)
26
DISTRIBUTIVE SHOCK
- an increased in the size of the vascular bed due to massive vasodilation or peripheral pooling of blood
- normal blood volume that can not adequately fill the increased size of the capillary bed
TYPES:
neurogenic
anaphylactic
septic
27
NEUROGENIC SHOCK
- occurs after spinal cord injury at T5 or above
- results in massive vasodilation leading to pooling of blood in vessels
- loss or suppression of sympathetic tone
- the rarest of all shocks
28
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF NEURGENIC SHOCK
TRIAD

39
STAGES OF SHOCK : INITIAL STAGE
- may not be clinically apparent
- may be restless or anxious
- metabolism changes from aerobic to anaerobic
- lactic acid accumulates
- must be removed by blood and broken doen by the liver
- this requires O2
40
INITIAL STAGE
- baroreceptors detect a sustained decrease in the MAP
- decreased circulating blood flow
- natural physiologic responses are activated
- vasoconstriction
- increased cardiac contractions and HR
- reversible at this point
41
COMPENSATORY STAGE
- attempted homeostaisis
- MAP <10-15 and 25-35% volume loss
- renin angiotensin system activated
- impaired GI motility
- cool skin clammy
- except septic shock where skin is warm and flushed
42
COMPENSATORY STAGE
- shunting blood from lungs=physiologic dead space
- SNS stimulation increses myocardial O2 demand
- decreased blood to kidneys
43
PROGRESSIVE STAGE
MAP <20
begins when compensatory mechnisms fail
lactic acid accumulation
requires aggressive interventions to prevent multiorgan dysfunction syndrome and death
-decreased cellular perfusion and altere capillary permeability
- movement of fluid from intravasculature to interstitium
- hyperkalemia due to cellular destruction
44
PROGRESSIVE STAGE
- fluid movement into alveoli
- CO begins to fall
- myocardial dysfunction
- GI system becomes ischemic
- liver fails to metabolize drugs and wastes
- failure of one organ system affects others
45
REFRACTORY STAGE
- exacerbation of aneorobic metabolism
- accumulation of lactic acid
- increased capillary permeability
- hypotension and tachycardia worsen
- decreased coronary blood flow
- cerebral ischemia
- hypoxemia
- recovery unlikely
46
MEDICAL MANAGEMNT
supportive care
- ventilation and oxygenation

- volume replacement

- circulatory assist devices (blood products , plasma, platelets)
