Dysfunction Syndrome
Shock
• Condition in which tissue perfusion is inadequate to
deliver oxygen, nutrients to support vital organs, cellular
function
• Shock Affects all body systems
1
Classifications of Shock
• Hypovolemic: shock state resulting from decreased
intravascular volume due to fluid loss
• Cardiogenic: shock state resulting from impairment or
failure of myocardium
• Septic: circulatory shock state resulting from
overwhelming infection causing relative hypovolemia
• Neurogenic: shock state resulting from loss of
sympathetic tone causing relative hypovolemia
• Anaphylactic: circulatory shock state resulting from
severe allergic reaction producing overwhelming systemic
vasodilation, relative hypovolemia

Cellular Effects of Shock
Figure 14-1
3
Stages of Shock
• Compensatory
• Progressive
• Irreversible
4
Progressive Stage of Shock
• Mechanisms that regulate BP can no longer compensate,
BP and MAP decrease
• All organs suffer from hypoperfusion
• Vasoconstriction continues further compromising cellular
perfusion
• Mental status further deteriorates from decreased
cerebral perfusion, hypoxia
5
Irreversible Stage of Shock
• At this point, organ damage so severe that patient does
not respond to treatment and cannot survive
• BP remains low
• Renal, liver function fail
• Anaerobic metabolism worsens acidosis
• Multiple organ dysfunction progresses to complete organ
failure
• Judgment that shock is irreversible only made in
retrospect
Question

Answer
B. Compensatory
Rationale: In the compensatory stage of shock, the BP
remains within normal limits. In the second stage of
shock, the mechanisms that regulate BP can no longer
compensate and the MAP falls below normal limits.
Patients are clinically hypotensive; this is defined as a
systolic BP of less than 90 mm Hg or a decrease in
systolic BP of 40 mm Hg from baseline. The irreversible
(or refractory) stage of shock represents the point along
the shock continuum at which organ damage is so severe
that the patient does not respond to treatment and
cannot survive. Despite treatment, BP remains low.

General Management Strategies in Shock
• Fluid replacement
– Crystalloid, colloid solutions
– Complications of fluid administration
• Vasoactive medication therapy
• Nutritional support
8
Pathophysiology of Hypovolemic Shock
Hypovolemic Shock
• Medical management
– Treatment of underlying cause
– Fluid, blood replacement
– Redistribution of fluid
– Pharmacologic therapy
• Nursing management
– Administering blood, fluids safely
– Implementing other measures

Cardiogenic Shock
• Medical management
– Correction of underlying causes
– Initiation of first-line treatment
• Oxygenation
• Pain control
• Hemodynamic monitoring
• Laboratory marker monitoring
• Fluid therapy
• Mechanical assistive devices
11
Cardiogenic Shock: Pharmacologic
Therapy
• Dobutamine
• Nitroglycerin
• Dopamine
• Other vasoactive medications
• Antiarrhythmic medications
12
Circulatory Shock
• Septic shock
• Neurogenic shock
• Anaphylactic shock
13
Management of All Types of Shock
• Fluid replacement to restore intravascular volume
• Vasoactive medications to restore vasomotor tone,
improve cardiac function
• Nutritional support to address metabolic requirements
Fluid Replacement
• Crystalloids: 0.9% normal saline, lactated Ringer’s
solution, hypertonic solutions (3% hypertonic saline)
• Colloids: albumin, dextran (dextran may interfere with
platelet aggregation)
• Blood components for hypovolemic shock
• Complications of fluid replacement include fluid overload,
pulmonary edema

Question
When caring for a patient in hypovolemic shock who is
receiving large volumes of IV isotonic fluids, the nurse
should monitor for symptoms of:
A. Hyperthermia
B. Pain
C. Pulmonary edema
D. Tachycardia
Answer
C. Pulmonary edema
17
Vasoactive Medications
• Used when fluid therapy alone does not maintain MAP
• Support hemodynamic status; stimulate SNS
• Check vital signs frequently; continuous monitoring of
vital signs every 15 minutes or more often
• Give through central line if possible
– Extravasation may cause extensive tissue damage
• Dosages usually titrated to patient response
Nutritional Therapy
• Nutritional support needed to meet increased metabolic,
energy requirements prevent further catabolism, due to
depletion of glycogen
• Support with parenteral or enteral nutrition
• GI system should be used to support its integrity
• Administration of glutamine
• Administration of H2 blockers or proton-pump inhibitors
18
Psychological Support of Patients and
Families
• Anxiety
• Support of coping
• Patient, family education
• Communication
• End-of-life issues
• Grief processes
19
• Decreased tissue perfusion
• Decreased cardiac output
• Fluid volume deficit
• Anxiety

• The client also has the nursing diagnosis
Decreased Cardiac Output related to
decreased plasma volume. Which finding
on assessment supports this diagnosis?

position.
b. Full and bounding pedal and post-tibial pulses.
c. Pitting edema located in feet, ankles, and
calves.
d. ShallowCopyright

• You are monitoring blood administration to
a trauma victim in shock. Which of the
following assessments indicate a
dangerous transfusion reaction?
a. Red raised areas on the skin that itch
b. An increase in body temp by 3 degrees
c. Decreasing BP and dyspnea
d. Increasing BP and pulse

• A listless 2 year old is rushed into the
Emergency Department in his mother’s arms.
She relates he was eating a peanut butter cookie
when he began crying and rubbing his mouth.
Within seconds his lips and eyes became swollen
and he developed a raised rash over his trunk
and extremities. His breathing became labored
and audible wheezing could be heard. His
mother states he has never eaten nuts before.
