Question
Answer
What are the four stages of shock?   Initial, Compensatory, Progressive, Irreversible (aka Refractory)  
🗑
During the ________ stage of shock, no s/s are apparent; body is beginning to react to O2 supply/demand imbalance with lactic acid accumulating from change to anaerobic metabolism (aka metabolic acidosis)   Initial  
🗑
During the _______ stage of shock, s/s are vaguely visible; body is trying to compensate. "Fight or flight" response. Narrow window to intervene before acidosis develops.   Compensatory  
🗑
During the _______ stage of shock, there is an increase in abnormal VS   Progressive (aka decompensate)  
🗑
During the ________ stage of shock, the body must have external supports (meds for BP and cardiac, intubation, external pacer, etc.)   Irreversible (aka refractory)  
🗑
Stage of shock: Priority is blood flow management; preventing hypotension or the advancement to other stages.   Compensatory  
🗑
Stage of shock: Clinical signs are normal BP, HR >100, RR >20, cool clammy skin, confusion, lower urine output and RR alkalosis. Prognosis good if treatment begins early.   Compensatory  
🗑
Term for the blood ejected from heart with systole; Systolic BP minus diastolic   Pulse Pressure  
🗑
Normal pulse pressure is _____ to _____ mmHg   30-40  
🗑
Pulse pressure is r/t what? Decrease/narrowing of pulse pressure is showing change in it.   SV  
🗑
Lab changes in the compensatory stage include increased _____ and ______ r/t catecholamine and aldosterone release.   Na and glucose  
🗑
Report systolic BP <_____ or drop from baseline of ____   90; 40  
🗑
Stage of shock: Heart is overworked; cellular perfusion decreased from vasoconstriction and increased capillary permeability   Progressive  
🗑
Stage of shock: Circulating fluid volume decreases, so HR increases beginning a vicious cycle with worsening prognosis   Progressive  
🗑
Stage of shock: Map falls below normal limits, Systolic <80-90, HR >150, rapid shallow RR, crackles, skin mottled, lethargic, decreased urine output, metabolic acidosis.   Progressive  
🗑
Stage of shock: Weak, thready pulse, Increased BUN, creatinine, liver enzymes. May see seizure. Increased r/o GI bleed and infection.   Progressive  
🗑
Stage of shock: Organ damage is so severe it is unable to respond in any way and can only go on with mechanical or pharmacological support.   Irreversible (Refractory)  
🗑
Stage of shock: No BP or RR without support, cardiac rhythm is erratic or asystole, intubated, skin is jaundiced, anuric, unconscious, profound acidosis   Irreversible (Refractory)  
🗑
MODS can happen in what type of shock?   Any  
🗑
What three things increase r/o developing MODS?   Age, malnourished, comorbidities  
🗑
