100
This mechanism is the hallmark characteristic of distributive shock. 

What is vasodilation.

100
This patient is in what stage of shock?

HR 112 BP 108/78 RR 18 SPO2 94%

What is compensated shock. 
100
Major blood loss
What is hypovolemic shock?
100
This sign is characteristic only of distributive shocks. 

What is red/ flushed skin.

100

Bright red spurting blood. 

What is an arterial bleed? 

200

Inadequate perfusion of body’s tissues and organs

What is hypoperfusion?

200

This patient is in what stage of shock?

HR 42

What is irreversible shock?

200

A patient suffering from a ruptured appendix. 

RR 26 BP 88/56 HR 120

What is septic shock?

200

This sign occurs in male patients when the  parasympathetic nervous system is unregulated. 

What is priapism?

200

This specialty gauze is impregnated with a clotting agent. 

What is a hemostatic agent/ gauze? 

300

CO = HR x SV

What is the formula for cardiac output?

300

This patient is in what stage of shock?

BP 90/50 HR 116 RR 20

What is decompensated shock?

300

A heart attack that severely limits function. 

What is cardiogenic?

300

A decrease in cardiac output is seen as this. 

Hypotension

300

Utilized when a life threatening bleed is in a junctional location and direct pressure is not controlling the hemorrhage. 

What is wound packing?

400

When baroreceptors stimulate the release of epinephrine and norepinephrine. 

What is fight or flight (sympathetic nervous system response)? 
400

Kidney damage occurs in this stage of shock. 

What is irreversible? 

400

JVD and right sided tracheal deviation. 

What is obstructive shock?

400

A BP of 90/80mmhg

What is narrowing pulse pressures? 

400

This section of a C.A.T. tourniquet tightens the device to control hemorrhage. 

What is the windlass?

500

The perpetuating cycle of an obstructed coronary artery leading to ischemic myocytes, infarct, decreased SV, leading to further reduction in coronary artery perfusion. 

What is a positive feedback loop?

500

A feeling of impending doom can occur in this stage? 

Irreversible 

500

Unregulated vagal nerve stimulation.

What is neurogenic shock? 

500

A condition in which fluid and proteins accumulate in interstitial spaces. 

What is increased capillary permeability? 

500

This tourniquet is a stretchy constricting band who directions for application are 'Stretch, Wrap, Tuck".
