100
Shock that results from a change in size of the vascular space without an increase in blood volume.
What is Distributive (Vasogenic) or Warm shock will also take - Neurogenic
100

Spinal cord injury (T5 or higher), drug OD, hypoglycemia, evaluate for fluid overload, bradycardia may require atropine, administer vasoconstrictor medications.

What is neurogenic shock

100
administer volume replacement, blood transfusion, and volume expanders; administer oxygen
What is Hypovolemia
100
A nursing diagnosis for hypovolemia or hypovolemic shock
What is Fluid Volume Deficit
100
Caused by hemorrhage, burns, dehydration? The most common cause of shock?
What is Hypovolemic or hypovolemia
200
Shock that results from the heart's inability to adequately circulate blood (intravascular) volume.
What is Cardiogenic
200
Important to differentiate between hypovolemic & cardiogenic shock; How might the nurse determine the existence of cardiogenic shock?
What is History of MI (cardiomyopathy or pulm edema)
200
Monitor ECG, medications like vasopressors to increase cardiac output, evaluate hemodynamic parameters, administer digitalis preparations for pulm edema.
What is Cardiogenic shock
200
The nursing diagnosis that addresses poor (impaired) heart function and blood volume in a cardiogenic shock state?
What is Decreased Cardiac Output
200
The shock stage with vasoconstriction, shunting; BP low normal range, restless & agitated, pulse increased, MAP decreased 10-15 mmHg from baseline, decreasing pulse pressure; UOP slightly decreased; vital organs are perfused.
What is Compensatory stage (non-progressive)-Early
300
Shock that results from hypotension, tachycardia, oliguria, altered mental status, hypernatremia, increased HCT (hct may drop if pt actively bleeding), metabolic acidosis & an MAP <70.
What is Hypovolemic Shock
300
A nurse's responsibility to recognize the sxs of shock; list five assessment findings that occur in most shock victims.
What is: tachycardia; tachypnea; hypotension; cool-clammy skin; & decreased UOP
300
Treatment: 4 nursing interventions for shock patients.
What is Position supine, may elevate legs (modified trendelenburg) Maintain airway, provide supplemental O2 Keep warm Protect from falls IV access & fluid resuscitation Monitor MAP
300
An acceptable nursing diagnosis for a patient in shock?
What is: alterations in tissue perfusion -anxiety -knowledge deficit -nutritional alterations/deficits -self care management
300
MAP decreased 20mmHg or more, pallor, cold moist skin, oliguric, dyspneic, edema, dysrhythmias, weak-thready or absent pulses, decreased cardiac output, decreased tissue perfusion, reduced blood volume-circulatory deterioriation
What is Progressive stage or decompensated
400
Shock caused by the physical impediment to the flow of blood.
What is Obstructive
400
Name at least 3 risk factors that can cause shock
What is very old, very young chronic progressive disease states (MI) trauma postop hemorrhage
400

Useful nursing diagnosis for changes in level of consciousness, restlessness & agitation, confusion & decreased responses.

What is Disturbed thought processes

400
A pt has an allergic reaction, becomes confused, has difficulty breathing, hypotension and tachycardia. What nursing diagnosis will you plan to use for the care of this pt.
What is airway management -anxiety -______________
400
Unresponsiveness, BP not measurable, pulse slow & irregular, anuria, severe hypoxemia unresponsive to O2, metabolic acidosis; MODS
What is Refactory or irreversible (late) stage
500
Shock with increased venous capacity due to a loss of peripheral vasomotor tone. Cardiac function & blood volume may be normal.
What is: Neurogenic
500

SIRS criteria, name at least 3

What is: tachycardia, fever, tachypnea, confusion, elevated WBC

500

3 findings that indicate fluid resuscitation for hypovolemic shock hasn't been successful?

What is lactic acid, urine output, hypotensive

500
Reduction in circulating blood volume, fluid loss from vomiting, diarrhea, ascites, third spacing, decreased blood flow to kidneys & brain & skin care plan nursing diagnoses.
What is F&E imbalance Decreased Cardiac Output -___________________
500
call bell in reach, activate bed alarm, fluid resuscitation, nurse works with physician in early identification of the pt in shock, pts at risk for shock, restoring normal circulating volume & hemodynamic status.
What is Collaborative management (Safety)
