2. Cells need two things to function: oxygen and glucose. This allows the
cells to generate energy and do their specific jobs. When cells don’t
receive either of them or both, they stop functioning.
INTRODUCTION
3. Shock is defined as a condition where the tissues in the body don't receive
enough oxygen and nutrients to allow the cells to function.
DEFINITION
4. CLASSIFICATION
1. Cardiogenic shock- It occurs due to systolic or diastolic dysfunction.
2. Hypovolemic shock- It occurs due to intravascular fluid volume.
3. Obstructive shock- It occurs when there is physical obstruction in blood flow.
5. 4. Distributive shock- (neurogenic, anaphylactic & septic)
• Neurogenic shock- It occurs from trauma that leads
to spinal cord injuries.
• Anaphylactic shock- It is acute life threatening
hypersensitivity reaction to a sensitizing
substance like drug, chemical, vaccine, food etc.
• Septic shock- Also known as blood poisoning,
is a condition caused by infections that lead to bacteria
entering blood.
15. DIAGNOSTIC EVALUATION
• History collection
• Physical examination
• Blood culture & sensitivity test
• CBC- increased WBC & ESR level
• Arterial blood gas analysis- respiratory alkalosis
16. • ECG-dysarrthmias
• Echocardiogram-to rule out aortic stenosis and pulmonary embolism.
• X-ray & CT scan
• Cardiac monitoring-Spo2,pulse,temp,BP are monitored continuously.
• Central venous pressure -fluid loss.
17. COMPLICATIONS
• Loss of consciousness
• Respiratory failure
• Coagulation disorder
• Multi organ damage
• Coma
• Death
18. MANAGEMENT
I. MEDICAL MANAGEMENT
A. PHARMACOLOGICAL MANAGEMENT
• Crystalloids: ringer’s solution and normal saline
• Inotropic agents: like dopamine , dobutamine and epinephrine
• Vasodilators : nitroglycerine
• Diuretics : lasilactone, furosemide
• Antibiotics : ciprofloxacin, amoxicillin and clavulanic acid
• Antihistamines : epinephrine used in anaphylactic shock.
• Corticosteroids : dexamethasone
• Sodium bicarbonate :used to treat metabolic acidosis
• Broncodilators : like atropine , aminophylline etc.
19. • B. NON- PHARMACOLOGICAL MANAGEMENT
• Modified trendelenberg position
• Assessment of vital signs
• Oxygen administration
• Parenteral nutrition support
20. II. SURGICAL MANAGEMENT
• Wound debridement- in case of chronic infected wound, burns wound
debridement to be done for fast healing
• Angioplasty-in case of myocardial infarction angioplasty can be
performed
• Tracheostomy
21. III. NURSING MANAGEMENT
ASSESSMENT
• Continuous monitoring of vital signs should be done.
• Assess Airway, breathing & circulation of the patient.
• Monitor for ABG value
• Check for urine output of the client.
•
22. • NURSING DIAGNOSIS
• Impaired tissue perfusion related to decrease cardiac output, decreased
venous return
• In effective breathing pattern related to hypoxia, bronchospasm
• Fluid volume deficit related to vomiting hemorrhage
• Acute pain related to myocardial infarction
• Imbalanced nutrition less then body requirement related to vomiting,
low intake of food
