organ perfusion, reduce edema, minimize effects of fluid shifts, prevent hypovolemic
shock

ringers
Chemical burns should be irrigated until - answers 20 minutes or the burn sensation
continues after the 20 minute marker

Neurogenic
Patho for neurogenic shock - answers interference of the nervous system that controls
the blood vessels

system

- answers 15-25%, or 1/3 of the body blood, or 5L
clients who experience slow blood loss can - answers Tolerate the blood loss better
then a client with rapid blood loss
, Signs and symptoms of compensatory shock - answers hypotension, tachycardia,
tachypnea, hypothermia, decrease pulse pressure
During compensatory stage of shock, why would you hear hypoactive bowl sounds and
cool and clammy skin - answers Body shunting blood from skin, kidneys and GI to
provide adequate blood volume to the brain and heart
Why would urine output decrease during compensatory stage of shock - answers High
production of aldosterone

acidotic state trying to blow it off Kussmals
What is the byproduct of anaerobic metabolism that is developing in what stage of
shock - answers Lactic acid, Compensatory
Why would you not give someone with impaired hepatic function lactated ringers -
answers Because it does not convert lactic acid into bicarb fast enough could go into
acidosis
why would you check for high levels of sodium nd glucose in the compensatory stage of
shock - answers Because of the release of alderstone and catecholamines which is
used to regulate blood volume
What stage of shock that lactic acid is at the highest - answers progressive

turgor, cyanosis(late) Delay cap refill, decrease UO, CO, and BP, rapid and threadie
pulse, increase RR, dyspnea, diaphoresis, hypothermia
Septic shock can lead to - answers SIRS
S&S of Hypovolemic shock - answers decrease urine osmolality, and SG (R/T NA and
H2O retention), increase SNS response (S/A rapid RR increase pulse rate.) Decrease
tissue perfusion, Pale appearance, diaphoretic, cyanosis(late)
