Study Notes
Management of Hospitalization
- Positioning is critical: hospital patients often placed in sitting or semi-sitting positions to improve respiratory function.
- High-flow oxygen is administered to treat hypoxia, which can cause pulmonary vasoconstriction and increase cardiac workload.
Key Treatments
-
Furosemide (20-80 mg IV):
- Reduces venous return and alleviates pulmonary congestion.
- Considered the most important treatment for managing fluid overload.
-
Morphine (2-4 mg IV):
- Alleviates stress and anxiety in patients.
- Acts as a venodilator, decreasing venous return and lung congestion.
- Reduces pulmonary stretch reflex, thereby decreasing tachypnea and respiratory effort.
-
Nitroglycerin:
- Administered sublingually or intravenously for rapid effect against chest pain and heart strain.
-
Hemodynamic Support:
- Aim to maintain systolic blood pressure (SBP) above 100 mmHg.
- Monitoring and adjusting treatment based on SBP response.
Treatment for Hemodynamic Emergency
-
I.V. Fluids:
- Ringer's solution preferred over normal saline for massive hemorrhage scenarios.
-
Blood Transfusion:
- Critical in cases of significant blood loss to restore hemoglobin levels.
-
Dopamine:
- Used to increase cardiac output (COP) in patients experiencing shock.
Causes of Cardiogenic Shock
- Acute Myocardial Infarction (MI): Major contributing factor.
- Blunt Cardiac Trauma: Injury affecting cardiac function.
- Myocardial Depression: Can be induced by drugs or infections affecting heart contractility.
Treatments for Cardiogenic Shock
- Comprehensive approach includes all treatment protocols for acute MI.
- Dobutamine IV: Typically administered at 5-20 µg/kg/min to enhance cardiac output.
- Lidocaine IV: Utilized to manage and control ventricular arrhythmias during shock states.
