Compensated Shock - correct answer✔ ✔ f9 f9 f9 f9
Early stage of shock, the body can still compensate for the h

ypovolemic state through defense mechanisms, such as increas

ed heart rate and peripheral vasoconstriction.
f9 f9 f9 f9 f9
Decompensated Shock - correct answer✔ ✔ f9 f9 f9 f9
Late or "progressive" stage of shock, the body can no longer

2. Pipe (blood vessels)
f9 f9 f9
3. Fluid (blood volume)
f9 f9 f9
Trachycardia - correct answer✔ ✔ f9 f9 f9
If there is a loss of blood or volume, the body will increase
f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9
heart rate and cardiac force of contraction to compensate.
f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9
Peripheral Vascoconstriction - correct answer✔ ✔
f9 f9 f9 f9
The body will constrict peripheral blood vessels to try to incr
f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9
ease blood pressure and increase perfusion to vital organs.
f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9
Cardiogenic Shock - correct answer✔ ✔ f9 f9 f9 f9
CAUSED: by low cardiac output due to reduced preload, hig

h afterload, and poor myocardial contractility. SIGNS AND S
f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9 f9
YMPTOMS: hypotension, probable cardiac history, chest pain,
