Shock that results from the heart's inability to adequately circulate blood volume or "pump failure"
What is Cardiogenic
Important to differentiate between hypovolemic & cardiogenic shock; How might the nurse determine the existence of cardiogenic shock?
What is History of MI
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)
Shock that is caused by decrease in intravascular volume
What is Hypovolemic Shock
Shock that is caused when the body is invaded by microorganisms and a systemic inflammatory response is initiated
What is septic shock
Name at least 3 risk factors that can cause septic shock
What is age, those hospitalized, & chronic comorbidities
The reason why patients with MODS can experience both primary and secondary MODS
What is
•Primary MODS results from a well-defined insult in which organ dysfunction occurs early and is directly attributed to the insult itself.
•Secondary MODS is a consequence of widespread sustained systemic inflammation that results in dysfunction of organs not involved in the initial insult.
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 - impaired gas exchange/ineffective airway clearance/cardio output
Unresponsiveness, BP not measurable, pulse slow & irregular, anuria, severe hypoxemia unresponsive to O2, metabolic acidosis; MODS
What is Refactory or irreversible stage
Shock with increased venous capacity due to a loss of peripheral vasomotor tone. Cardiac function & blood volume may be normal.
What is: Neurogenic
MAIN ACTION in preventing microorganisms from invading the body and is ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY ESSENTIAL components of preventive nursing care...
What is: hand HYGIENE
WARSH YO HANES!
and stop being NASTY! :)
3 findings that indicate fluid resuscitation for hypovolemic shock hasn't been successful?
What is HCT (Lab)
The first hour of emergent care, the “golden hour", focuses on THREE MAIN OBJECTIVES!
What is rapid assessment, resuscitation, and treatment of life-threatening injuries?
