Front Back
List the primary factors determining the O2 delivery to tissues
Macro: CO, Hgb conc, O2 sat
Micro: periph shunting,k
What leads to the occurence of hypovolemic shock?
Inadequate INTRAVASCULAR volume to meet O2 and metabolic needs
What is the role of vasopressors?
They modulate vasoconstriction and increase BP
What is the role of inotropes?
They increase cardiac performance and thereby improve CO
What major interventions will improve O2 delivery?
Resore balance to 1)the pump (CO) 2)the transport system (periph circ) and 3)the transport medium (blood)
What can cause shock?
-decrease in CO
-vasodilation
-low circulating blood volume
What 4 major ways can plasma volume be decreased leading to hypovolemic shock?
Loss of fluid from vascular to ext enviro
-hemorrhage
Loss of fluid from vasc to interstitial space
-decreased plasma protein (burn, kidney/liver disease)
-increased capillary perm (sepsis, prolonged ischemia, burn)
Highest osmolarity?
5 dextrose
.9 NaCl
3NaCl
5alb
3%NaCl
Cause fluid to move from intracell to extracell?
5 dextrose
.9 NaCl
3NaCl
5alb
3% NaCl
Most hypotonic?
5Dext
5Det/halfNS
3NaCl
5Alb
5% Dextrose
What is distributive shock?
Periph tissues not being perfused
-anaphylactic, neurogenic, septic
List the major fluid compartments in the body
Intracellular, extracellular (composed of intravascular and interstitial)
Compare the size of body fluid compartments
Body is 60% water (42L)
Intracellular is 2/3rd of total body water (28L)
Extracellular is 1/3 of total body water (14L)
-Interstitial is 3/4 of extracellular volume (10.5L)
-intravascular is 1/4 of extracellular volume (3.5L)
Define osmotic
Micro force for fluid movement accross cell membrane
Units of:
osmolality
osmolarity
MOsm/kg (measured)

mOsm/L (Calclulated)
