100

Shock caused by massive loss of blood volume

What is hypovolemic (or hemorrhagic shock) 

100

Lab most useful to identify tissue hypoperfusion 

What is lactate

100

Most common cause of preventable death in trauma

What is hemorrhage

100

First step in any shock management

What is ABCs (Airway, breathing, circulation)

100

Vasopressor of choice in septic shock 

What is norepinephrine

200

Shock caused by pump failure, often post-MI

What is cardiogenic shock?

200

Blood pressure is maintained by which 2 factors?

What is CO and SVR

200

FAST exam is used to detect

What is free fluid in the abdominopelvic cavtiy 

200

Type of fluid preferred for mid to late hemorrhagic shock 

What is blood products

200

Vasopressor (s) that also increases heart rate

What is norepinephrine & dopamine (dose dependent)

300

Shock due to obstruction to blood flow

What is obstructive shock (e.g. PE, tamponade)

300

Hemodynamic measure often low in hypovolemic shock 

What is CVP

300

Initial fluid of choice in trauma resuscitation 

What is isotonic crystalloids (NS or RL)

300

When to consider vasopressors

What is after adequate fluid resuscitation & persistent hypotension

300

In cardiogenic shock with low perfusion, may use?

Dobutamine, milrinone

400

What shock demonstrates preserved global perfusion with impaired use of oxygen at the tissue level

What is septic shock 

400

Classic lab pattern in hemorrhagic shock 

What is anemia + metabolic acidosis

400

Trauma related coagulopathy diamond 

What is hypothermia, acidosis, coagulopathy and hypocalcemia
400

Goal MAP (s) in most shock states 

What is MAP > 65mmHg or 60mmHg for the elderly

400

Mechanism: phenylephrine

What is pure alpha-1 agonist (vasoconstriction)

500

What a form of shock leading to hypoperfusion and refractory vasopressor response, with hyponatremia and hyperkalemia

What is adrenal insufficiency 

500

What is this hemodynamic profile: low CO | high SVR | high CVP | low PCWP

What is obstructive shock - Pulmonary embolism (PE)

500

Massive transfusion protocol is defined as

10+ PRBCs in 24h or >4U PRBCs in 1hr; blood deliviered in a 1:1 fashion (4PRBCs: 4 FFP: 1plt)

500

Why is over-resucitation harmful 

Risk of edema, ACS, dilutional coagulopathy and ARDS

500

Vasoconstrictive and inotropic effects contributing to effectiveness in cardiac arrest and shock states but not first line in sepsis

What is epinephrine
