Explain Cardiogenic Shock.
Give this one a try later!
,Results from disruption in SNS control of the tone of blood vessels, which leads to
vasodilation and maldistribution of blood volume and flow. (Neurogenic and Septic
Shock). Neurogenic shock may result from injury to spinal cord in cervical or upper
thoracic region.
Spinal shock = areflexia and flaccidity associated with lower motor neuron
involvement in complete cord injuries; reflexes return with resolution of spinal
shock.
Septic shock from bacteremia is distributive shock. Endotoxins and other
Shock uncompensated
inflammatory mediatorsor irreversible

and other perfusion abnormalities.
- Inadequate venous return
- inadequate cardiac filling
- decreased coronary artery perfusion
- Membranes of lysosomes breakdown within cells and release digestive enzymes
that cause intracellular damage.
Syndrome that results from ineffective perfusion caused by ineffective
perfusion caused by inadequate contractility of cardiac muscle.
Some causes:
- MI
- Blunt cardiac injury
- Mitral valve insufficiency
- dysrhythmias
- Cardiac Failure
Liver can store excess glucose as glycogen.
As shock progresses, glycogenolysis is activated by epi to break down glycogen
into glucose.
In a compensatory response to shock, hepatic vessels constrict to redirect blood
flow to other vital areas.

Up and over, down and under, lateral, rotational, rear, roll over, and ejection.
GIVE COMFORT MEASURES
- Talking to pt
- Pharmacologic/Nonpharmacologic pain management

A collection of blood in pericardial sac. As blood accumulates, it exerts pressure on
the heart, inhibiting or compromising ventricular filling.
- Hyotension
- Tachycardia or PEA
- Dyspnea
- Cyanosis
- Beck's Triad (hypotension, distended neck veins + muffled heart sounds)
- Progressive decreased voltage of conduction complexes on ECG
- Remove clothing
- Ensure appropriate decontamination if exposed to hazardous material
- Keep pt warm
- Keep clothing for evidence
