Understanding The Essentials Of Critical Care Nursing By Perrin -Test
Bank Care of the Patient Experiencing Shock or Heart Failure

,1) Which of the following should the nurse identify as symptoms of hypovolemic shock? (Select all that
apply.)

1. A temperature of 97.6°F (36.4°C)

2. A decrease in blood pressure of 20 mm Hg when the patient sits up

3. Capillary refill time greater than 3 seconds

4. Restlessness

5. Sinus bradycardia of 55 beats per minute

Answer: 2, 3, 4

Explanation: 1. (Note: This requires multiple responses to be correct.)

Due to decreased blood flow to the brain and peripheral areas when blood is shunted to

maintain the vital organs, cerebral hypoxia occurs. The action of standing will decrease the

blood to the brain by gravitational pull and will require increased peripheral resistance or

cardiac output to maintain cerebral blood supply. #1 is incorrect. Fever will increase oxygen

demands but is unrelated to hypovolemic shock unless prolonged fever has caused severe

dehydration, reducing the circulating blood volume. Hypovolemic shock reduces temperatures

by peripheral shunting of blood away from the extremities and reducing the core metabolic

rate. If septic shock is present fever might be present, but it is not present in all patients with

hypovolemic shock. #5 is incorrect. Bradycardia is not present. The compensatory response is

to increase the heart rate (tachycardia) to circulate the blood faster to make up for the fluids

that are not present in hypovolemic shock.
