Study Notes
Multi-System Dysfunction
- This presentation discusses various types of shock and their effects on the body.
- Shock is a complex clinical syndrome leading to cellular hypoxia and organ failure.
- It begins as an adaptive response but progresses to multi-system organ failure.
- The following are different types of shock: hypovolemic, cardiogenic, distributive (septic, anaphylactic, and neurogenic).
- Multiple interactions of mechanisms lead to decreased intravascular volume, decreased myocardial contractility, and increased venous capacitance.
Types of Shock
- Hypovolemic Shock: Results from insufficient blood volume in the vascular space. Causes include loss of blood, plasma fluid, and interstitial fluid. This leads to decreased perfusion, causing further drop in blood pressure. Compensatory mechanisms include increased heart rate and vasoconstriction.
- Cardiogenic Shock: Inability of the heart to pump enough blood to the tissues. Causes include myocardial damage (AMI), cardiomyopathy, sepsis, myocarditis, arrhythmias, and obstruction (PE, cardiac tamponade, or valvular disorders).
-
Distributive Shock: This involves vasodilation, which leads to maldistribution of blood volume.
- Septic Shock: Triggered by infection bacteria in the blood stream. This results in an inflammatory response and causes vasodilation and increased capillary permeability.
- Anaphylactic Shock: Caused by a severe allergic reaction. Antibodies react to an allergen resulting in a massive release of inflammatory mediators, inducing vasodilation and increased capillary permeability.
- Neurogenic Shock: Decreased sympathetic tone and widespread vasodilation result from spinal cord injury or spinal anesthesia. This leads to low blood pressure and potentially problematic decreased tissue perfusion.
Mechanisms of Shock
- Impaired oxygen use: Cells not properly receiving or utilizing oxygen, leading to sodium and water shift in cells, decreased blood volume and cellular edema. Low ATP leads to cell metabolic acidosis using lactic acid for fuel.
- Impaired glucose use: Impaired delivery or cell uptake of glucose leads to glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis, and lipolysis to create fuel for survival. Depletion of protein due to gluconeogenesis leads to muscle wasting.
Process of Shock
- A life-threatening condition caused by inadequate tissue perfusion that leads to anaerobic metabolism. Left untreated, it will result in cell death, potentially causing irreversible Multi-Organ Dysfunction Syndrome (MODS).
Impairment of Cellular Metabolism
- The breakdown of cellular function leads to the failure of organ systems and multi-system organ failure.
Clinical Manifestations of Shock
- Various presentations in adults and children may include hypotension, tachycardia, decreased urinary output, altered mental status, cool clammy skin, and narrowed pulse pressure. The severity of symptoms can range from mildly compensated to completely irreversible.
Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS)
- A potentially life-threatening condition. The main criteria are: temperature (< 36°C or > 38°C), heart rate (>90 bpm), respiratory rate (>20 breaths/minute or PaCO2 < 32 mmHg), and white blood cell count (< 4 or >12 x 109/L or >10% bands).
Common Sepsis
- Common sources of sepsis in acute care include urinary tract infections (urosepsis) leading to systemic sepsis, pneumonia, and integumentary issues (like necrotizing fasciitis).
Post COVID-19: Long Haulers
- Post-infectious symptoms (weeks or months after recovery from COVID-19). Symptoms may include fatigue, anxiety, depression, memory problems, sleep disturbances, pain, shortness of breath, difficulty concentrating.
COVID-19
- SARS-CoV-2 invades the host cell by binding to ACE2 receptors.
- ACE2 receptors are found in alveolar cells, kidney cells, and intestines.
- The resulting inflammation can cause multi-organ failures.
