Hypovolemic shock can be caused by any condition that causes volume depletion of the intravascular space. Characteristic findings are tachycardia, flattened neck veins, cool clammy extremities, and oliguria, small amounts of urine. It occurs when intravascular volume is depleted as a result of hemorrhage, vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, or third space losses. Hypovolemic shock includes left ventricle failure and reduced blood volume. Also, there is a decrease in arterial blood pressure,…

teacher and the accomplice was always the learner. Once the participant assumed their role the learner was taken into a room next door, and with the participant watching, he was then strapped to a chair with wired electrodes, which was connected to the shock generator in the next room with the teacher. Once the learner was attached instructions of the experiment followed. The main goal was having the learner memorize connections between various pairs of words. The teacher (who was the true…

Hypernatremia occurs when the body has increased serum sodium levels that go over 145 mEq/L. This increase in serum sodium levels results in hypertonicity, pulling water out of cells resulting in cell shrinkage. Based on extracellular fluid water volume (level of hypertonicity), hypernatremia can be isovolemic (most common), hypovolemic, or hypervolemic. When isovolemic hypernatremia occurs, there is a loss of free water whilst maintaining near normal sodium serum concentration. Isovolemic…

Have you ever wondered why people don't listen to authority? Or maybe why there is such an issue with disobedience? We see all over the world that there is a major problem in obeying and disobeying. People obey or disobey authority because they desire to conform to society, they fear authority, and because of moral conviction. We continue to be obedient because we want to fit in with rest of the world, were afraid to be different and stand up for what we really believe. “As long as i am…

Anaphylactic shock occurs when an anaphylactic reaction is left untreated, or if the treatment has failed; thus, leading to system tissue hypoperfusion caused by a decrease in cardiac output and/ or circulating blood volume (Ranidu, 2017). Anaphylaxis is defined as an unexpected, severe allergic reaction that is life threatening. In some cases, anaphylaxis is so severe that it leads to shock. Several precipitating events can cause anaphylaxis and anaphylactic shock. To reach the shock stage,…

a. Circulatory shock is a medical condition where a decrease in blood flow causes damage to organs and tissues. There are four types of shocks: (1) Hypovolemic shock, (2) Cardiogenic shock, (3) Low resistance shock, and (4) Neurogenic shock. b. Major causes: i. Hypovolemic shock – blood loss, vomiting, and dehydration ii. Cardiogenic shock – heart attack, myocardial infarction, and CHF iii. Low resistance shock – allergies and sepsis causing vasodilation iv. Neurogenic – vasovagal syncope,…

Extended Response Practice 1 : Rasmussen V South Western Sydney Local Health District Nervous shock is a term used to denote a psychiatric illness or injury caused to a person by events, due to the negligence of another person. For a claim of nervous shock, the illness must be recognised as a psychiatric disorder. The types of psychiatric illnesses that are likely to form the basis of claims include, post-traumatic stress disorder and anxiety disorders. At first, damages for psychiatric injury…

Assignment 1 Worksheet 2 I. Shock and Its Clinical Signs and Symptoms John is exhibiting signs of cardiogenic shock. Cardiogenic shock is a state of end-organ hypoperfusion due to cardiac failure. The most common causes are serious heart conditions such as myocardial infarction; as stated in the scenario, John’s ECG shows extensive myocardial damage. He likewise had a history of Myocardial infarction 2 years ago which required ICU admission. Patients diagnosed with cardiogenic shock usually…

When a phone company puts out an advertisement, their main goal is to promote a message to prevent such tragic events from occurring in society. There are many advertisements trying to grab the audience’s attention to make a difference. In this advertisement, AT&T, uses a real life situation to show the audience how risky it is to use your phone while driving. Since AT&T is a major phone seller, they take advantage of that to reduce the number of accidents in a majority of people to…

This condition was in one of the clinical correlations which I thought was interesting how the body’s energy processes worked against themselves. Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare, inherited life-threatening condition that is induced by general anesthetic drugs such as halothane. Generally, most cases show no signs or symptoms until individuals are exposed to anesthesia. However, there are cases where an individual with MH goes under anesthetics and will not react. The reaction includes a…
