Answers Latest Update
How to recognize cardiogenic shock? (acronym) - ✔-CS-MODE
Cardiac Rhythm
SBP <90
Markers- cardiac
Output- oliguria
Drips - Inotropes/ pressers
Exam - cool, clammy, resp distress
How to diagnose shock ( acronym) - ✔-(ECLS )
ECG
Consult- surgeon
Labs- lactates, abgs etc.
Swan catheter
what is PAPI score? Formula and normal value - ✔-differentiates between the LV/RV disfunction, if low
= RV dysfunction
PAPi= (sPAP-dPAP)/RA
it is the pa sys - the pa dyastolic / right atrial pressure- can get these numbers from swan
normal is >1.0
Formula for cardiac power output (CPO) and normal value - ✔-CPO= MAP x CO/451
normal = 0.7 to 1 W
what are the three key measurements for cardiogenic shock? - ✔-PAPI

CPO
Lactate
what is cardiac power output? - ✔-amount of energy available to maintain the perfusion of the vital
organs in shock
what does lactate in the blood mean and normal value? - ✔-anerobic metabolism is occurring
normal is 0.9 to 1.7
what are the two goals of mechanical circulatory support? - ✔-restore adequate end organ perfusion
ventricular unloading
how does the impella CP work as an LV vent? - ✔-drains at LV and returns at the aortic arch
provides 3-3.5 LPM of flow
what are the 5 factors affecting pharmacokinetics with critical illness? - ✔-1. augmented cardiac output
2. leaky capillaries
3. volume resusitation
4. end-organ perfusion
5. altered protein binding
what is pharmacodynamics? - ✔-the bodys biological response to the drug
what are the factors 5 affecting pharmacokinetics with ECMO? - ✔-1. augmented cardiac output
