H&C Ch 11 Shock

H&C Ch 11 Shock pp. 237-250

QuestionAnswer
if shock is not adequately treated what syndrome might occur ? MODS - multiple organ dysfunction syndrome
What is the criteria for MODS to be declared ? presence of altered function of two or more organs in an acutely ill patient such that interventions are necessary to support continued organ function
what physiologic responses are common to all types of shock? ypoperfusion of tissues, hypermetabolism, and activation of the inflammatory response
how does the body respond to shock ? by activating the sympathetic nervous system and mounting a hypermetabolic and inflammatory response
what type of assessment is required in patients with shock ? ongoing and systematic assessment
what does the clotting cascade cause? small clots lodge in microcirculation, further hampering cellular perfusion
What are the phases of shock ? compensatory, progressive, irreversible
what happens to BP in compensatory phase of shock ? remains normal
in compensatory phase of shock what mechanism increases the HR, increases heart contractility and contributes to adequate cardiac output vasoconstriction
What phase of shock is noted by "fight or flight" compensatory
While BP remains normal in compensatory, inadquate perfusion exists and is manifested how ? respiratory rate increases, blood pH raises , patient may be anxious or confused
What is the first step in managing shock ? identifying the cause of the shock
True or False: the compensatory phase is indefinite false p. 239
Across the stages of shock what happens to the BP ? C-normal P-systolic <100, MAP <65, requires fluids, I-requires mechanical/pharmacological support
Across the stages of shock what happens to the HR ? C->100bpm P- >150bpm I- erratic
Across the stages of shock what happens to the Respiratory status ? C- ≥22 breaths/min PaCO2 <32 mm Hg P-Rapid, shallow respirations; crackles; PaO2 <80 mm Hg; PaCO2 >45 mm Hg I-Requires intubation and mechanical ventilation and oxygenation
Across the stages of shock what happens to the skin? C-Cold, clammy ; Capillary refill ≤3.5 s P-Mottling, petechiae; Capillary refill ≥3.5 s I- jaundice
Across the stages of shock what happens to the urinary output ? C- decreased P- <0.5 ml/kg/h I- anuric, requires dialysis
Across the stages of shock what happens to the mentation? C- confusion and agitation P- lethargy I-unconscious
Across the stages of shock what happens to the acid-base balance ? C-Respiratory alkalosis P-Metabolic acidosis I-profound acidosis
What are the early interventions for shock ? IV fluids, oxyggen and obtaining necessary labs
In the compensatory stage of shock serum ____________ and ____________ ____________ levels are elevated sodium, blood glucose p. 240
What should be reported regarding systolic blood pressure with regards to shock ? BP <100 or drop by 40mm/Hg or a MAP of 65mmHg or less
What meds mask signs /symptoms of shock in elders ? beta blockers
What should be considered with regards to temperature and elders with regards to shock ? elders may lack febrile response , therefore trending is important
What should be considered with identifying shock and mental status in those who are elderly ? do not confuse mentation changes with dementia
the nurse should promptly notify the primary provider if the patient exhibits any two of the three following signs: Respiratory rate greater than or equal to 22 breaths/min Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score less than 13 Systolic BP less than or equal to 100 mm Hg p. 241
What is the pulse pressure of a patient with a BP of 100/70 ? 30 mm Hg
How might demands of oxygen of tissues be decreased ? (p. 241) edating agents may be given to lower metabolic demands, or the patient’s pain may be treated with opioid, nonopioid, or sedating agents to decrease metabolic demands for oxygen.
if the BP improves with passive leg raise the patient is thought to be able to do what ? respond to additional fluids p. 241
True or False : heart failure can only occur in cardiac originating shock false: the heart becomes dysfunctional, the body’s inability to meet increased oxygen requirements produces ischemia, and biochemical mediators cause myocardial depression
lack of blood supply in the progressive phase can lead to what heart condition/status ? chest pain and/or MI
__________ __________ _________ is characterized by increased blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine levels, fluid and electrolyte shifts, acid–base imbalances, and a loss of the renal–hormonal regulation of BP acute kidney injury
GI ischemia in progressive phase of shock can lead to what : stress ulcers - risk for GI bleed, small intestine sloughing and necrosis causing bloody diarrhea; bacterial toxins can enter the blood stream
in _______________________widespread clotting and bleeding occur simultaneously. Ecchymoses and petechiae may appear on the skin DIC p. 243
__________________ stage of shock represents the point along the shock continuum at which organ damage is so severe that the patient does not respond to treatment and cannot survive irreversible
Why are vasoactive medications given in all forms of shock ? These medications help increase the strength of myocardial contractility, regulate the heart rate, reduce myocardial resistance, and initiate vasoconstriction.
how often are vitals taken when vasoactive medications are administered ? at least every 15 minutes p. 246
Patients in shock require more than ________________ calories per day 3,000
Inotropic agents' desired actions in shock are : Improve contractility, increase stroke volume, increase cardiac output
examples of inotropic agents are : Dobutamine Dopamine Epinephrine Milrinone
vasodilators desired actions in shock are: Reduce preload and afterload, reduce oxygen demand of heart
examples of vasodilators are: Nitroglycerin Nitroprusside
vasopressor agents' desired actions in shock are: Increase blood pressure by vasoconstriction
examples of vasopressor agents are: Norepinephrine Dopamine Phenylephrine Vasopressin Epinephrine Angiotensin II
