Outline the important aspects of the medical management of hypovolemic, cardiogenic, anaphylactic, neurogenic, and septic shock and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. Summarize the nursing priorities for managing a patient with each type of shock or MODS. SHOCK SYNDROME Description Often results in MODS Etiology Four classifications: Hypovolemic Cardiogenic Distributive Septic, anaphylactic, or neurogenic PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF SHOCK SYNDROME Four stages: Initial stage Compensatory stage Progressive stage Refractory stage CONSEQUENCES OF SHOCK Cardiovascular Ventricular failure Microvascular thrombosis Neurological Sympathetic nervous system dysfunction Cardiac and respiratory depression Thermoregulatory failure Coma (continued) CONSEQUENCES OF SHOCK (CONTINUED) Pulmonary Acute respiratory failure Acute lung injury (ALI) Renal Acute tubular necrosis (ATN) (continued) CONSEQUENCES OF SHOCK (CONTINUED) Hematological Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) Gastrointestinal Gastrointestinal Hepatic tract failure failure Pancreatic failure ASSESSMENT AND DIAGNOSIS OF SHOCK SYNDROME Clinical assessment SBP <90 mm Hg Accompanied by: Tachycardia Altered mental status Varies with specific shock syndromes Global indicators of systemic perfusion and oxygenation Serum lactate Base deficit levels MEDICAL MANAGEMENT OF SHOCK SYNDROME Improvement and preservation of tissue perfusion Adequate pulmonary gas exchange Adequate cardiac output Preload Volume resuscitation Afterload Contractility Adequate hemoglobin level Optimal metabolic environment Nutritional support Glucose control NURSING MANAGEMENT OF SHOCK SYNDROME Nursing priorities in managing the patient’s psychosocial needs: Providing information on patient status Explaining procedures and routines Supporting the family Encouraging the expression of feelings Facilitating problem solving and decision making Involving the family in the patient’s care Establishing contacts with necessary resources COLLABORATIVE MANAGEMENT Support oxygen transport Establish a patent airway Initiate mechanical ventilation Administer oxygen Administer fluids (crystalloids, colloids, blood and other blood products) Administer vasoactive medications Administer positive inotropic medications Ensure sufficient hemoglobin and hematocrit (continued) COLLABORATIVE MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) Support oxygen use Identify and correct cause of lactic acidosis Ensure adequate organ and extremity perfusion Initiate nutritional support therapy Identify underlying cause of shock and treat accordingly Provide comfort and emotional support Maintain surveillance for complications QUESTION Sodium bicarbonate is recommended in the treatment of shock-related lactic acidosis. A. B. True False ANSWER B. False Sodium bicarbonate is not recommended in the treatment of shock-related lactic acidosis. No overall benefit has been found. Risks associated with its use include shifting of the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve to the left, rebound increase in lactic acid production, development of hyperosmolar state, fluid overload resulting from excessive sodium, and rapid cellular electrolyte shifts.

The gastrointestinal tract harbors organisms that present an inflammatory focus when translocated from the gut into the portal circulation and are inadequately cleared by the liver. The primary mechanism of bacterial translocation has been associated with intestinal bacterial overgrowth.
