&
Cx
decreased b/p; tachycardia; resless; decreased urine;
Cx: loss of blood; anesthesia; dehydration
wound dehisence might occur
5-12 post op
sanguineous
bright red
serosanguineous
pink
serous
straw color or clear
hypovolemic shock
inadequate blood volume to maintain o2 & nutrients (decreased blood loss: Hemorrhage, D&V
cardiogenic shock
heart fails as pump; (MI, myocarditis) decreased output and perfusion
obstructive shock
physical impairment of circulating blood flow (tension pneumothorax, pericardial tampondade, emboli)
Distributive shock
excessive dilation of blood vessels; fluid pools. increased cap permeability, plasma leaks (swelling)
neurogenic shock
disruption in nervous system affecting vasomotor in medulla
sodium Na+
regulates fluid volume, nerve impulse, etc
potassium K+
fluid osmolarity and volume, protein synthesis
urine ph
4.5-8
Hemoatocrit
percent of blood volume of rbc
bun
8-20 mg/dl
albumin
3.5-5.5
creatinine
0.6-1.5 mg/dl
hyponatremia
sodium deficit;build up fluid in brain cells
Fluid volume deficit
hypotension, increased R & P
Fluid excess
hypertension, increased pulse, increased resp
blood ph
7.35-7.45
resp acidosis
fails to eliminate co2. co2 is retained - rapid heart rate, lethargy, confusion
resp alkalosis
low paco2, hyperventilation... excess amts of carbon dioxide is eliminated through lungs.
metabolic acidosis
body retains to much acid - starvation, dehydration.
metabolic alkalosis
increase in bicarbonate- (suction) tx: isotonic
iatrogenic infections

General Adaption Syndrome
1- alarm reaction (fight or flight) 2 - resistance stage (adaption to stressor) 3- exhaustion stage (body no longer defend - death)
transcultural nursing
integration of culture into all aspects of nursing care
Passive or gravity drains –
Penrose of T Tube – can be used for drainage of stab wounds.
Active or negative pressure drains –
Hemovac & Jackson Pratt drains. (used for open wounds w/extensive tissue damage)

2/3 post op day
1st primary intention
2ndary intention
Tetritary
1 - CLEAN SUTURED - wound edges closed
2- infected wound left open to heal from bottom up
3 - left open to heal then closed
3 phases of wound healing
1- inflammatory 2 - proliferation 3 - maturation
partial thickness loss heal by
full thickness heal by
partial - epithealization
full - contaction
isotonic solutions
0.9 sodium chloride or ns
hypotonic (given for water loss)
0.45 sodium chloride
hypertonics
increase blood volume
