Hypovolemic Shock
What is hemorrhage?
This organ has failed as the pump in cardiogenic shock.
What is the heart?
Septic shock begins as this type of problem.
What is an infection?
Anaphylaxis is caused by an extreme reaction of this body system.
What is the immune system?
Coup–contrecoup injuries mean damage occurs at the impact site AND this location.
What is the opposite side of the brain?
In hypovolemic shock, the skin is typically this temperature and moisture.
What is cool and clammy?
Unlike hypovolemic shock, these lung sounds are common in cardiogenic shock.
What are crackles?
Early septic shock patients often have skin that feels this way.
What is warm and flushed?
This medication is the first-line treatment for anaphylactic shock.
What is epinephrine?
Sensitivity to light or noise after a head injury most commonly indicates this level of TBI.
What is a concussion?
This vital sign is often the earliest change in hypovolemic shock.
What is heart rate?
Giving large fluid boluses in cardiogenic shock can worsen this problem.
What is pulmonary edema?
Septic shock is dangerous because blood pressure drops due to this process.
What is widespread vasodilation?
In anaphylaxis, shock happens because vessels dilate AND this occurs in the airway.
What is swelling?
A head injury patient who becomes increasingly agitated may be experiencing early this condition.
What is hypoxia or increased ICP?
In hypovolemic shock, this physiologic response causes narrowed pulse pressure early on.
What is peripheral vasoconstriction?
his finding helps differentiate cardiogenic shock from hypovolemic shock in a hypotensive patient.
What are crackles or pulmonary edema?
In early septic shock, this vital sign may remain normal or elevated despite poor perfusion.
What is blood pressure?
In anaphylaxis, hypotension occurs due to vasodilation and increased this vascular effect.
What is capillary permeability?
Vomiting, unequal pupils, and declining mental status suggest rising this.
What is intracranial pressure?
In early hypovolemic shock, this physical exam finding may disappear before blood pressure drops.
What is a radial pulse?
Cardiogenic shock causes hypotension despite adequate volume because this cardiac function is impaired.
What is cardiac contractility?
A septic patient suddenly becomes cool and clammy after initially being warm. This change indicates the patient is now this stage of shock.
What is decompensated (late) shock?
After initial improvement, an anaphylaxis patient worsens again without re-exposure. This phenomenon is called this.
What is a biphasic reaction?
A head injury patient with hypertension, bradycardia, and irregular respirations is showing this ominous triad.
What is Cushing’s triad?
