,SEPTIC SHOCK - correct ans:SEPTIC SHOCK
The most common noncoronary cause of death in the ICU? - correct ans:septic shock
Patients with cancer are __________ more likely to develop sepsis than those in the general population
due to ____________________ - correct ans:5 times
their higher risk for developing infections and use of underlying treatments for cancer
_______1______ is the more common hematologic malignancies as many as 50% of patients will go on
to develop ______2______that can end in sepsis - correct ans:1 Febrile Neutropenia
2 Bacteremia
_____________is the most common cause of death in patients with cancer not related to their
malignancy and the most common cause of death in patients with hematologic malignancy - correct
ans:Infection
Although not validated in oncology patients, the _______________________, is the preferred method
over previously uses SIRS to assess sepsis risk - correct ans:Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA)
It is a seven item scoring system that numerically quantifies the number and severity of organ
dysfunction in six organ systems: respiratory, coagulation, liver, cardiovascular, renal and neurologic
Nurses may utilize the quick SOFA which assess three points: - correct ans:respiratory status
blood pressure
mental status
The Multinational Association in Supportive Care in Cancer (MASCC) established a scale for febrile
neutropenic patients. The MASCC risk index is a 21 point scoring system that quantifies
_______________as predictors to progression to sepsis - correct ans:age
systolic BP
, hydration status
pulmonary compromise
type of cancer
The MASCC score of 21 or higher deems a patient as having a __________ for progressing to sepsis
whereas a score of < _________indicated a higher prediction of sepsis with poor outcomes - correct
ans:lower risk
<5
21 lower risk and <5 is higher risk
Common risk factors for sepsis include: - correct ans:-comorbidities
-poor performance status
-age younger than one year or older than 65 years
-prolonged neutropenia greater than 7 days more prominently in hematologic malignancies and stem
cell transplantation
Sepsis is the result of a _________________ from infection, bacterial, viral, fungal, or parasites, which
can result in impaired organ function and systemic dysfunction - correct ans:dysregulated inflammatory
response
Septic shock occurs when the presence of sepsis, with ________________and_______________, is
unresponsive to aggressive fluid replacement, ultimately leading to organ dysfunction - correct
ans:hypotension and hypoperfusion
Multi Organ Dysfunction Syndrome (MODS) is defined as when - correct ans:two or more organ systems
are dysfunctional , leading to the inability to maintain homeostasis without immediate intervention
There are three lines of defense against microorganism invasion and subsequent infection, in addition to
an intact integumentary system - correct ans:Granulocytes (neutrophils and bands)
Cell mediated Immunity (macrophages and T lymphocytes)
