The 4 main categories of shock are

-cardiogenic


-hypovolemic


-distributive


-obstructive

Cardiogenic Shock

Occurs when either systolic or diastolic dysfunction of the hearts pumping action results in reduced cardiac output, stroke volume, and BP

Causes of cardiogenic shock

-diastolic dysfunction (inability of the heart to fill) cardiac tamponade, ventricular hypertrophy, cardiomyopathy


-dysrhythmias (bradydysrhythmias, tachydysrhythmias)


-Structural factors (valvular stenosis,regurgitation, pneumothorax)


-systolic dysfunction (MI, cardiomyopathy)

Hypovolemic shock types

Absolute hypovolemia


Relative hypovolemia

Absolute hypovolemia

-external loss of whole blood (hemorrhage, surgery, GI, Bleeding )


-loss of other body fluids (vomiting, diarrhea, excessive diuresis, diabetes insipidus, diabetes )

Relative hypovolemia

-fluid shifts (burn injuries, scores)


-internal bleeding (fracture of long bones, rupture spleen, hemothorax, severe pancreatitis)


-massive vasodilation (sepsis)


-pooling of blood or fluids (bowel obstruction)

Distributive shock

-Anaphylactic


-Neurogenic


-Septic shock


-Obstructive shock

Anaphylactic Shock

Hypersensitivity (allergic) reaction to a sensitizing substance (contrast media, blood or blood products, inspect bites, anesthetic agents, food or food additives, vaccines, environmental agents, latex

Neurogenic shock

-hemodynamic consequence of spinal cord injury and/or disease at or above T5


-spinal anesthesia


-Vasomotor center depression

Septic shock

-Infection (pneumonia, peritonitis, UTI, invasive procedures, in dwelling lines and catheters)


-at-risk patients (older adults, patients with chronic diseases, patients receiving immunosuppressive therapy or who are malnourished or debilitated.

Obstructive shock

-physical instruction impeding the filling or outflow of blood resulting in reduced CO


(Cardiac tamponade, tension pneumothorax, superior vena cava syndrome, abdominal compartment syndrome, pulmonary embolism)

Relationship of shock SIRS ABD MOD

Shock causes >SIRS causes > MOD

Cardiogenic shock

Unable to keep up with physiological demands of the heart. Caused by pump failure

Distributive shock

Loss vascular tone that leads to odd distribution of blood into the body.

HYPOVOLEMIC

-the reduced intravascular pressure volume results in decreased venous return to the heart, decreased preload, decreased stroke volume, and decreased cardiac output.

Loss of 15-30% of volume leads to what?

Increased HR, CO, and respiratory rate and depth. The patient will appear anxious, urine output will decrease

If fluid volume is greater than 30% loss in hypovolemia shock what should you do ?

Replace with blood products immediately

DISTRIBUTIVE SHOCK : Neurogenic

hemodynamic phenomenon that occurs within 30 minutes of a spinal cord injury and can last up to 6 weeks

DISTRIBUTIVE SHOCK : Neurogenic caused by what?

Spinal cord injury associated with cervical and high thoracic injury.

DISTRIBUTIVE SHOCK : Neurogenic

Vasodilation leads to pooling of blood in the blood vessels, tissues hypoperfusion, and impaired cellular metabolism

DISTRIBUTIVE SHOCK : Neurogenic (clinical manifestations)

Hypotension and bradycardia. Patient will not be able to regulate temperature

DISTRIBUTIVE SHOCK : Anaphylactic shock

Hypertensive allergic reaction that causes massive vasodilation, release of vasoactive mediators and an increase in capillary permeability. As capillarity permeability increases fluid leaks from the vascular space into the interstitial space

What happens with anaphylactic shock

DISTRIBUTIVE SHOCK : Anaphylactic shock (signs/symptoms)

The patient has a sudden onset of symptoms including dizziness, chest pain, incotinence, swelling of the lips and tongue, wheezing and stridor. Skin changes include flushing, purititus, urticaria and angioedema.

A feeling of impeding sense of doom, confusion and anxiousness are associated with which distributive shock ?

Anaphylactic

DISTRIBUTIVE SHOCK : Septic shock

Life-threatening syndrome in response to an infection. It is characterized by dysregulated patient response along with new organ dysfunction related to infection

What is septic shock characterized by ?

Septic shock is characterized by persistent hypotension, despite adequate fluid resuscitation abs inadequate tissue percussion that results in tissue hypoxia.

What are the main organisms that cause septic shock ?

Gram positive and gram negative bacteria

Which organism caused more complications in septic shock ?

Gram positive

What is common with septic shock

Respiratory failure

Common signs of septic shock

-change in mental status


-decreased urine output


-gi dysfunction


gi bleeding and paralytic ileus



DISTRIBUTIVE SHOCK : Obstructive shock

Developed when a physical obstruction to blood flow occurs with a decreased CO

Causes of Obstructive Shock

Cardiac tamponade, pneumothorax, superior vena cabs syndrome, abdominal compartment syndrome pulmonary embolism

Signs/symptoms of obstructive shock

-tachycardia


-decreased bp


-decreased preload


-decreased CO


-tacypnea


-SOB


-decreased urine output


-cool, clammy skin


-anxiety, confusion, agitation


-decreased or absent bowel sounds

Stages of shock: initial

Metabolism changes at the cellular level from aerobic to anaerobic causing lactic acid build up

STAGES OF SHOCK : compensatory stage

The body tries to overcome the increasing consequences of anaerobic metabolism and maintain homeostasis

Signs/symptoms of the compensatory stage

-Restlessness


-SNS response release of epinephrine/norepinephrine


-INCREASED HR


-decreased blood flow to the lungs


-decreased blood flow to all other organs except the heart
