1. Elevated temperature: Increases metabolic demands and oxygen use by tissues
2. Drop in oxygen saturation: Result of elevated temperature in central venous
blood
3. Intraaortic balloon pump (IABP): Used for a patient in cardiogenic shock
4. Goals of treatment with IABP: Indicated by normal cardiac output (CO) of 5
L/min
5. Low stroke volume (SV): Signifies continued cardiogenic shock
6. Tachycardia: Suggests continued cardiogenic shock
7. Low urine output: Suggests continued cardiogenic shock
8. Positioning the patient: Supine with head of the bed elevated up to 30 degrees
9. Use of anticoagulant medications: Should be avoided for a patient with an
intraaortic balloon pump
10. Monitoring urinary output: Helps determine improvement in cardiac output
and monitor balloon displacement
11. Limited movement: Allowed for extremity with balloon insertion site to prevent
displacement
12. Heparin: Used to prevent thrombus formation
