Question
Answer
cardiogenic shock, nursing prevention   decrease infarction size: calm, reassuring, prompt pain relief, rest, supplemental oxygen  
🗑
hypovolemic shock, nursing prevention   I&O/fluid status, daily weights, unmeasured fluid loss considered (insensible, sweat, drainage), decrease blood loss  
🗑
minimizing blood/fluid loss   direct pressure at site, tell the doctor, replace IV fluids rapidly  
🗑
neurogenic shock, nursing prevention   immobilization of spinal cord injuries ASAP, after spinal anesthesia HOB 15-20* elevated (so anesthesia doesnt get to medulla)  
🗑
anaphylactic shock, nursing prevention   caution when IV drug admin especially first time giving, when giving blood blood type and Rh matched, monitor for s/s (flushing, pruritis, edema, hypotension, dyspnea) and stop if occur leaving IV patent with isotonic fluids  
🗑
septic shock, nursing prevention   strict asepsis (suctioning, dressing changes, wound care), check for inflammation (red, swell, warmth) and systemic infection, temp, WBC, BP  
🗑
assesment of shock (4 major ones)   LOC, skin, UO, VS  
🗑
reason for LOC changes   decreased cerebral BF, inadequate O2 delivery to brain ells  
🗑
early shock LOC   subtle: restless, agitated, irritable  
🗑
later shock LOC   confusion, personality change, loss of memory, altered sleep  
🗑
shock latest stages LOC   responsive to verbal stimuli absent, thus pain response assessed (decreases from flexing to pain, then extanding, then flaccid/no response)  
🗑
skin/mucous membrane assessment   color, temp, moistness, texture, turgor  
🗑
early shock skin   cool, pale, sweat/clammy moist skin, reduced cap refill  
🗑
sustained shock skin   cyanotic, cold, mottled  
🗑
skin exceptions: sepsis   in hyperdynamic phase, warm, dry, and pink from early vasodilation  
🗑
skin exceptions: liver ischemia/failure   jaundiced  
🗑
skin exceptions: anaphylactic shock   flushed, macular/papular rashes  
🗑
skin exceptions: hypovolemic shock from dehydration   very dry, poor skin turgor  
🗑
skin exceptations: blood loss hypovolemic shock   mucous membranes pale  
🗑
renal function: minimum hourly output   20cc or 0.5cc/kg  
🗑
UO, compensatory shock   volume decreased, osmolality increased (because kidneys can still excrete waste products but retain fluid as compensation for shock)  
🗑
UO, shock progresses   volume low, concentration fixed or dilute (failing kidneys cant excrete waste products as well, lose ability to concentrate urine)  
🗑
UO: early septic shock   inappropriate polyuria up to or over 100cc/hr (hypotension + polyuria r/t bacteria toxins causing renal vasodilation)  
🗑
VS: initially   normal or elevated (compensation)  
🗑
VS: progression of shock   systolic BP decreases (as CO decreases), diastolic normal (vasoconstriction) --> pulse pressure narrows  
🗑
BP in shock   can be high, low, or normal depending on type, other conditions, compensation  
🗑
Taking BP in shock   using cuff normally inaccurate and may underestimate arterial pressure by 15-30; may not even hear so have to palpate arterial pulse distal to cuff to estimate systolic BP or use U/S flow meter  
🗑
Taking pulses in shock   tell about peripheral BF, do major arteries (carotid, brachial, radial, ulnar, femoral, popliteal, dorsalis pedis, posterior tibial); assess rate, rhythm, amplitude, quality  
🗑
Pulse in shock   rapid, rhythm poss irregular (d/t ishemic arrhythmias as progresses), amplitude reduced, quality thready  
🗑
RR: early shock   rapid (>20 often), depth increased 2x  
🗑
RR: shock progresses   respiratory muscles fatigue --> hypoventilation (shallow), rapid still  
🗑
Lung sounds, shock progresses   moist crackles (from interstitial edema), expiratory wheezes if anaphylactic (from bronchial constriction)  
🗑
Temperature in shock   decreased from slowed cellular met, decreased production of heat (except sepsis from inflammation or anaphylactic bc of allergic response)  
🗑
nurse: lab testing, blood   frequent blood samples: ABGs, elites, glucose, enzymes (CPK, SGOT, amylase: tell organ/tissue destruction), BUN/creatinine/bili/ammonia (renal, hepatic fxn), CBC and coag studies (test covert bleed, coag prob)  
🗑
nurse: lab testing, urine   elites, osmolality, creatinine clearance (for renal, metabolic probs)  
🗑
nurse: other testing   radiographic, CT, ECG, U/S, pulmonary fxn, arteriograms, angiography  
🗑
INTRODUCTION TO INVASIVE CATHETERS   I SKIPPED THIS IT WAS LONG AND BORING AND TMI  
🗑
hemodynamic changes in shock   arterial BP, PAP (pulm artery pressure), PAOP (pulm artery occlusion pressure, RAP (R atrial pressure), CO (changes vary depending on type and progression)  
🗑
hypovolemic shock: hemodynami changes   ­­decreased venous return, low ventricular filling pressures, R atrial pressure and PAOP low, SV and CO low, PAP normal or reduced (low volume) or elevated (vasoconstriction)  
🗑
cardiogenic shock: hemodynamic changes   filling pressure RAP and PAOP increased (d/t ventricles not emptying), CO decreased (impaired contractility), arterial BP low, PAP increased (from increased L heart pressures into pulm circ)  
🗑
neurogenic shock: hemodynamic changes   venous return falls (blood pooling, vasodilation massive), RAP and PAOP low, low CO and BP (heart doesnt fill enough), PAP normal or low (vasodilation, relative hypovolemia)  
🗑
anaphylactic shock: hemodynamic changes   decreased filling pressures RAP and PAOP --> low CO and BP; PAP normal or low (from decreased BV)  
🗑
hypovolemic hemodynamic simple   everything low except PAP any (high, low, or nomal)  
🗑
cardiogenic hemodynamics simple   only one wiht high filling pressures (PAOP and RAP), low CO and BP, high PAP  
🗑
neurogenic hemodynamics simple   low everything except for PAP low or normal  
🗑
anaphylactic hemodynamics simple   same as neurogenic (everything low except poss normal PAP)  
🗑
septic hemodynamics simple   early (decreased everything except for increased or normal CO), late (increased or decreased filling pressures RAP and PAOP, decreased CO and BP, increased PAP)  
🗑
septic shock, early/warm phase hemodinamics   massive vasodilation --> decreased venus return --> RAP and PAOP decreased; CO nnormal or increased (from low SVR and afterload); BP decreased in spite of CO increase (massive vasodilation and lowerered peripheral vascular resistance); PAP normal or low  
🗑
sepsis late/cold/hypodynamic phase hemodynamics   cap permeability increase --> less volume; CO low (impaired contractility, inadequate filling); PAOP and RAP can be decreased (less venous return) usually increased (myocardial dysfxn, incomplete V. emptying), BP low; PAP eventually increases  
🗑
ominous sign   hypotension in the presence of shock  
🗑
compensated shock   BP normal or high  
🗑
decompensated shock   PB low, cardiopulmonary arrest is possibly imminent  
🗑
shock   inadequate tissue perfusion, is present when CV dsyfxn --> inadequate perfusion of vital organs  
🗑
most common causes (4)   severe dehydration, hemhorrage, progressive heart failure, sepsis  
🗑
distributive/vasogenic shock   voume there, wrong place  
🗑
most shock types   has elements from all types of shock  
🗑
cardiogenic shock   volume there, pump isnt distributing it well; low CO and hypotension, clinical signs of inadequate BF to tissues  
🗑
hypovolemic shock   loss of intravascular volume; amount lost = severity  
🗑
hypovolemic shock management   early recognition (before hypotension or loss of 20-25%), correct underlying cause, rapid replace loss NS/LR, keep client calm  
🗑
injuries where in wrong place, stopping bleeding   never move something if it is not in the proper location and it hurts/doesnt move easy, because it can cause damage, cut off blood supply, cause nerve damage, etc  
🗑
open femur fracture   large bone full of BM, easily bleed so put immediate pressure  
🗑
rapid replacement of fluids in hypovolemic shock   start off with crystalloids (NS, LR) but if there is a lot will shift to blood products (colloids: albumin, parked RBC, blood)  
🗑
crystalloids vs colloids   crystalloids will leak into third space more, colloids have proteins in them and dont leak  
🗑
cardiogenic shock management   limit/reduce cardiac damage, impove effectiveness of pumping action (drugs mostly, possibly elevate HOB)  
🗑
cardiac output equation   CO = SV (SVR and ejection of heart) x HR  
🗑
drugs/action for acute MI   aspirin, thrombolytics, angioplasty, nitroglycerine  
🗑
IV fluid in cardiogenic shock   be cautious because if give the pump has to work harder, cant pump it out, backs up from R sided HF (seen as SOB, jugulovenous distensiton, backup into body and edema --> eventual L sided HF and pulm edema); however, give 1st bolus when undetermined shock  
🗑
inotropics for cardiogenic shock: dopamine   given primarily to imporve renal function (in low doses) dilates kidney vessels; not usually for cardiac sstem just to sustain kidneys when in shock; then another drug is given for cardiac support  
🗑
anaphylactic shock   distributive, may show symptoms w/in 20 minutes of exposure, early symptoms are ???? later symptoms are ?????; the earlier you catch the easier it is to fix  
🗑
anaphylaxis managment   ID/remove causative agent, reverse effects of chemical mediators (epinephrine stops vasodilation and opens up airways, given SQ or IV), then reverse infammation next (salumedrol, steroids/corticosteroids, benadryl, etc)  
🗑
septic shock s/s   distributive, massive vasodilation, low SVR, capillary leak, organ failure, lactic acidosis despite high CO, systemic and pulmonary edema  
🗑
septic shock management   early recognition key, optimize CO, control O2 demand; can take up to a week after resolved to stop edema because giving fluids and third spacing  
🗑
supportive management   ventilation, optimal intravascular adequate RBC volume, maintain metabolic state; O2 and nutrients becaue of hypermetabolic state/overdrive; check glucose  
🗑
glucose in shock   increased BG when release stores early on, but later will drop when depleted  
🗑
shock effects: pulmonary   capillary perfusion increases (lungs fluffy/fluid on xray) --> leaks, alveoli flooded; endothelial liining damage --> less surfactant, alveolar collapse --> fibrotic changes/scarred lungs  
🗑
lungs early compensation   rapid and deep RR: trying to get off CO2 (because met acidosis) and get more O2  
🗑
lungs late compensation   still rapid RR but shallow --> risk for hypoxia at this point  
🗑
shock effects: renal   reduced GFR, blood shunted from outer to inner cortex --> renin/angiotensin system sense less BF, activated --> decreased O2/ATP cause cellular sloughing and ATN --> w/ATN cant excrete waste products --> faulure (decreased UO is clinical sign)  
🗑
decreased UO   kids <1cc/kg/hr adults <30cc/hr  
🗑
shock effects: CV   blood shunts to central circulaiton, vital organs; myocardial O2 demand increases --> tachycardia (when compensation); late shock comp fails --> CO/BP falls; decreased coronary perfusion  
🗑
shock effects: CV s/s   HR changes, diminished pulse quality, decreased systolic and MAP, delayed cap refill  
🗑
normal MAP   ??????  
🗑
shock effects: neuro   blood shunted to brain early (up to 5x); once MAP <60 autoreg responses fail (cant breathe, no reflexes, etc), cerebral cells become ischemic and lactate accumulates; intracranial hypertension and cerebral perfusion pressure falls  
🗑
***intracranial hypertension and cerebral perfusion falling   CPP (cerebral perfusion flow) = MAP - ICP ?????????  
🗑
shock effects: neuro s/s   changes in LOC often restless, agitated --> confusion, irritable, lethargy  
🗑
shock effects: hepatic   liver fails from anaerobic met; hepatocytes cant generate ATP during anaerobic met, so cellular membrane damage w/loss of liver fxn; liver enzymes elevate (ALT, AST, >>> phosphatase), ammonia and lactate accumulate (ammonia --> encephalopathy)  
🗑
liver damage   if reversed early, damage can be reversed cuz liver can regenerate itself  
🗑
shock effects: GI system   one of the earlier systems to take a hit; blood redirected from gut through vasoconstriction of splanbchic vessesl; reduced BF --> damage to epithelial lining --> decreased gastric motility, paralytic ileus; predisposed to ulcers, GI bleed  
🗑
phrophylactic treatment in stress situations   for ulcers eg nexium  
🗑
shock effects: hematologic   sluggish BF --> microemboli --> microishcemias --> cell death --> lactic acidosis, other bad stuff; hypoperfusion of liver --> decreased clotting factors made --> coagulopathies, cant stop bleeding; poss leukopenia from leukocytosis  
🗑
shock effects: integument   one of first affected; peripheral vasoconstriction --> pale, cool, clammy skin, mottled if severe*** for a long time and really bad cuz means ishemia already happened is purply looking; if distributive skin is warm dry and flushed  
🗑
skin when compensatory mechanisms fail   very cool, cyanotic, mottled  
🗑
vasoactive inotropic drug therapy   increase HR if too slow, increase CO if inadequate, increased cardiac contractility, redistribute CO, manipulate vascular resistance, administered IV continuous and titrated to effect (always) most places standing orders to titrate so nurses can do  
🗑
if need to increase CO and pump action   give inotropic drugs (**but increae pump action and increase metabolic and oxygen consumption too)  
🗑
