"It's Shocking"
The abbreviation "MODS" indicates this condition.
Multi-system Organ Dysfunction Syndrome
Patient's with this disease process need to be aware that a joint condition known as "blank" can occur.
Hemarthrosis
Brain Natriuretic Peptide
Congestive Heart Failure
This electrolyte is the best indicator of hypovolemia
Serum Sodium/hypoantremia
Cardiac arrythmia
Jugular vein distension
Dyspnea with crackles
Capillary refill >2 sec.
Are all defining characteristics of what type of shock?
Cardiogenic
In this phase of shock there is a systemic inflammation response that elevates which lab value?
Lactic Acid or procalcitonin
Patients experiencing neutropenia need to be vigilant to prevent?
Infection
Abnormally shaped recticulocytes
Sickle cell anemia
The first IV fluid given when a patient presents with hypotension.
Normal Saline
Complaints of severe pain: extremity, back and abdominal
Fever
Hypertension
Are all defining characteristics of what type of hematologic disorder?
Sickle cell anemia
This lab value for the heart can be abnormal when a patient is experiencing shock.
Troponin
This disease condition causes red blood cell destruction leading to anemia
Sickle Cell
Elevated lactic and procalcitonin levels
SIRS
This electrolyte can be elevated, but don't worry it's value will drop when the patient is hydrated.
Potassium Chloride
Rapid shallow breathing
Mild edema
Lethargy
Decreased bowel sounds
Rapid weak peripheral pulses
Are all defining characteristics of what type of shock?
Septic
Hypotension continues after a fluid challenge requires this drug.
Levophed
Cause of Microcytic, hypochromic anemia
Iron deficiency
Decreased Cobalamine and Folic Acid Levels
Megaloblastic Anemia
An elevated lactic acid will decrease with this intervention.
10cc/kg Normal saline
Pallor
Complaints of chronic fatigue
Cheilitis (inflammation of the lips)
Burning sensation of the tongue
Iron-Deficiency Anemia
This type of shock occurs when there is a relative fluid/blood loss from the vascular space
Hypovolemic
In this genetic disease condition, patient's experience growth and development delays at an early age.
Thalassemia Major
Abnormally small mature RBCs
hypochromic microcytic anemia
A low blood pressure can only be treated with this medication after the patient's fluid volume has been restored.
Levophed or a vaso-pressor
Audible respiratory wheezing
Diffuse skin rash or hives
Angioedema
Tachycardia
Are all defining characteristics of what type of shock?
Anaphylaxic
