According to newtons law which of these two force is
greater: size or force? - ANSNeither. For each force there
is an equal and opposite reaction.
Define Cushing's triad - ANSBradycardia, progressive
hypertension (widening pulse pressure), and decreased
respiratory effort
Define the characteristics of neurogenic shock -
ANSDistributive shock with a T6 or higher injury results
and vasodilation, bradycardia, flushed warm dry skin.
Risk for temperature instability. Nursing interventions
include maintaining warmth and spinal stabilization.
Define the characteristics of spinal shock - ANSTransient
loss of function can include loss of reflexes and muscle
tone below the level of industry with possible vascular
response.

Describe one fat embolism syndrome is most likely to
occur in its characteristics - ANSWith longform fractures.
Tachycardia, Thrombocytopenia, and petechiae rash.
Describe the characteristics of cardiogenic shock -
ANSCardiogenic shock results from pump failure in the
presence of adequate intravascular volume. Lack of
cardiac output and an organ perfusion occurs secondary
to a decrease in myocardial contractility and or valvular
insufficiency. This can happen with blunt cardiac trauma
or an MI. Symptoms can include low blood pressure
increase heart rate and respiratory rate chest pain
shortness of breath dysrhythmias increase troponin and
pale cool moist skin
Describe the characteristics of distributive shock. -
ANSDistributive shock occurs as a result of Mel
distribution of an adequate circulating blood volume
with the loss of vascular tone or increased permeability.
This can occur with spinal cord injuries, sepsis, or
anaphylaxis. Symptoms include low blood pressure heart

rate respiratory rate preload and afterload, spinal
tenderness, difficulty breathing, warm pink and dry skin
with a cool core temperature.
Describe the characteristics of hypovolemic shock -
ANSHypovolemia is caused by a decrease in the amount
of circulating volume usually caused by massive bleeding,
but also can be from vomiting and diarrhea.
Characteristics include low blood pressure and preload,
increase heart rate respiratory rate and afterload, with
contractility unchanged. Signs include obvious bleeding,
weak peripheral pulses, pale cool and moist skin,
distended abdomen, pelvic fracture, or bruise swollen
and deformed extremities especially long bones.
Describe the characteristics of obstructive shock -
ANSObstructive shock is it mechanical problem that
results from hypoperfusion of the tissue due to an
obstruction in either the vasculature or the heart
resulting in decreased cardiac output. Some

causes include a tension pneumothorax, cardiac
tamponade, or venous air embolism on the right side of
the heart during systole in the pulmonary artery.Signs
include anxiety, muffled heart sounds, JVD,
hypertension, chest pain, difficulty breathing, or pulses
paradoxes.
Describe the four types of spinal cord injury - ANSCentral
cord injury results in greater weakness distally, anterior
injury includes motor loss or weakness below the cord
level of injury yet sensory is intact, Brown-Sequard
(hemicord) is weak on one side with sensory deficit on
opposite side, posterior cord syndrome although rare is
when the patient is unable to use sense vibration in
proprioception
Describe the measurement of an NPA - ANSMeasure
from the tip of the patient's nose to the tip of the
