NSG 233 MOD 3
Which of the following are early interventions for patients with shock? Select
all that apply.
Administering IV fluids
Oxygen
Identifying cause of the shock
If fluid administration fails to reverse hypovolemic shock, then vasoactive
medications that cause cardiac failure are given.(
False
If fluid administration fails to reverse hypovolemic shock, then(Vasoactive
medications that prevent cardiac failure are given.(
Which of the following can cause neurogenic shock? Select all that apply.
Spinal cord injury
Depressant action of medications
Spinal anesthesia
In(neurogenic shock, vasoconstriction occurs as(a result of a loss of
balance between parasympathetic and sympathetic stimulation.
False
IV infusions must be observed closely because tissue necrosis and sloughing
may occur if vasopressor medications infiltrate the tissue.
True
A major role of the nurse is monitoring the patient’s hemodynamic and
cardiac status.(
True
The arterial line enables accurate and continuous monitoring of BP and
provides a port from which to obtain frequent arterial blood samples without
having to perform repeated arterial punctures.(
True
If a patient experiences chest pain, IV toradol is given for pain relief.(
False
Reestablishing tissue perfusion through aggressive fluid resuscitation is key
to the management of sepsis and septic shock.
