Delivery of Oxygen
DO2 : CO x CaO2 x 10
Note
CO : Cardiac output
CaO2 : Oxygen Arterial content
Oxygen delivery can be increased by :
a. increasing cardiac output
b. Increasing hemoglobin concentration or
c. Increasing oxyhemoglobin concentration.
RR (x/mt) 16 16 – 20 21 – 26 >26
Bacteraemia
The presence of variable bacteria in the blood.
Systemic inflamatory response syndrome (SIRS)
The SIR to a variety of severe clinical insults.
The respon in manifested by two or more of the
following conditions :
- Temperature > 38o C or < 36o C
- Heart rate > 90 x/mt
- RR > 20 x/mt or PaO2 < 4,3 kPa (< 3,2 Torr)
- White blood cell count > 12.000 cells/mm3, or >10
% immature (band) forms
Sepsis
Defined as SIRS as a result of infection.
Severe Sepsis
Sepsis that is associated with organ
dysfunction, hypoperfusion, or hypotension.
Septic Shock
Sepsis with hypotension, despite adequate
fluid resuscitation, a long with the presence of
perfusion abnormalities.
Obstructive shock
C. tamponade ↑ ↓ ↑
P. embolus ↓ or N ↓ ↑
Basic Principles of Management
Shock
1. Increase oxygen delivery to the tissue
2. Incresing cardiac output and blood
pressure with combination:
a. Fluid resuscitation
b. Increasing cardiac contractility with
inotropes
c. Raising SVR with vasopressors
A. Cardiogenic Shock
Dobutamine
Is a ß adrenergic agonist
Doses of 5-20 µ/kg/BB/mt is a potent inotropes →
increase CO
Norepinephrine (NE)
Is a potent α adrenergic vasopressor agent.
Also has ß adrenergic, inotropic, and
chronotropic effects.
Dose ranges start at 0,05 µg/kgBB/mt → titrated
to desired effects
Epinephrine (E)
Has both α and ß adrenergic effects
Potent inotrope and chronotrope
Increase in myocrdial oxygen consumption
Dose ranges start at 0,1 µg/kgBB/mt → titrated to
desired effects
B. Hypovolemic Shock
The primary goal : restoration of
intravascular volume, either crystalloid or
colloid fluids, blood.
Targeted : to reestablish normal blood
pressure, pulse and organ perfusion
(adequate urine output)
C. Distributive Shock
The initial approach is :
1. Restoration and maintenance of
adequate intravascular volume
2. Infection : appropiate antibiotic
3. Remains hypotensive despite adequate
fluid resuscitation : inotropes and or
vasopressors
Anaphylactic shock :
Epinephrine sc and volume resuscitation
Adrenal insufficiency:
Volume therapy, corticosteroid iv and
vasopressor
Neurogenic shock:
Cervical or thoracic spinal cord injury.
Characterized: hypotension, bradycardia, flaccid
paralysis, loss of extremity reflexes, and priapism
Treatment for hypotension:
Volume resuscitation, vasopressors, and
atropine for bradycardia.
Severe Brain Injury (trias Cushing classic signs).
The initial management : controlling ICP, maintaining
cerebral oxygen delivery with ;
a. Supplemental O2
b. Intubation
c. Hyperventilation
d. Elevation of head
e. Limitation : excess free water and volume
resuscitation
f. Osmotic diuretic
g. Cardiopulmonary support
h. Blood transfusions
i. CT scan of head
j. Prompt craniotomy (when necessary)
D. Obstructive Shock
Relief of the caused obstruction
Cardiac tamponade
Signs : Trias Beck’s syndrome+pulsus paradoksus
Treatment :
Pericardiocentesis (puncture PX → tip of left
scapula, angel 45 o with longest needle).
Tension pneumothoraks
Thoracocentesis (puncture IC II mid clavicula lines
with large needle).
