Questions With Complete Solutions

Hypovolemic shock interventions Nursing interventions include minimizing fluid loss,

administering volume replacement, assessing response to therapy, providing comfort and

emotional support, and preventing and maintaining surveillance for complications.




Stages of Shock 1.During the initial stage, cardiac output (CO) is decreased, and tissue

perfusion is threatened.




2.Compensatory stage begins as the body's homeostatic mechanisms attempt to maintain CO,

blood pressure, and tissue perfusion.




3.Progressive stage, the compensatory mechanisms begin failing to meet tissue metabolic needs,

and the shock cycle is perpetuated.




4.Refractory stage, shock becomes unresponsive to therapy and is considered irreversible. Point

of no return




What MAP defines shock The client with a MAP less than 60 mm Hg or with evidence of

global tissue hypo perfusion is considered to be in a shock state.

Cardiogenic Shock Cardiogenic shock is the result of failure of the heart to effectively

pump blood forward

It can occur with dysfunction of the right or the left ventricle, or both

The lack of adequate pumping function leads to decreased tissue perfusion and circulatory failure




Cardiogenic Shock Signs and Symptoms The patient may complain of chest pain.

Tachycardia develops to compensate for the decrease in CO. The respiratory rate increases to

improve oxygenation.
