Hypovolemic, Neurogenic, and Anaphylactic Shock *Read your modules for cross reference SHOCK © Asyndrome characterized by decreased tissue perfusion and impaired cellular metabolism. This results in an imbalance between the supply of and demand for oxygen and nutrients. The exchange of oxygen and nutrients at the cellular level is essential to life. When cells experience hypoperfusion, the demand for oxygen and nutrients exceeds the supply at the microcirculatory level. + There are four main categories of shock: cardiogenic, hypovolemi and obstructive. distributive, SHOCK The stages of shock Thitial stage Compensatory stage Progressive stage Refractory stage » Body switches from > Sympathetic nervous » Electrolyte imbalance > Irreversible cellular aerobic taraerobie system stimaated |} etal acest and organ damage > Elevated lactic acid * cardiac contractility > Respiratory acidosis” ‘Impending death ra) ' > Peripheral oedema > Hinrvtrstea mmpomse | » treoer » Subtle cangms in|?

Vascular fluid volume loss causing extreme tissue hypoperfusion. The volume is inadequate to fil the vascular space. There two types: Relative and Absolute. Relative hypovolemia, fluid volume moves out of the vascular space into the extravascular space (eg, intracavitary space). Absolute results when fluid is lost through hemorrhage, gastrointestinal (Gi) loss (e.g., voriting, diarrhea), fistula drainage, diabetes insipidus, or diuresis. Causes: Internal fluid loss, external fluid loss and inadequate vascular volume. HYPOVOLEMIC SHOCK Hypovolemic Shock Absolute Hypovolemia PATHOPHYSIOLOGY MAP.
