Objectives: Identify a patient in shock Learn the different types of shock and their acute management With a focus on septic shock, identify best practices Familiarize yourself with vasopressors and advanced medical therapies
MKSAP Question A 71 y/o female is brought to the ED from a SNF because of confusion, fever and flank pain. Her temperature is 38.5 C, BP 82/48, pulse 123, RR 27. Mucous membranes are dry, there is CVA tenderness, poor skin turgor and no edema. Hgb 10.5, WBC 15.6, UA with 50-100 wbc/hpf and many bacteria. There is an anion gap metabolic acidosis. A CVC is placed and antibiotic therapy is started. Which of the following interventions is most likely to improve survival for this patient? A) Aggressive fluid resuscitation B) Hemodynamics monitoring with a PA catheter C) Maintaining Hgb concentration above 12g/dL D) Maintaining Pco2 below 50 mmHg
INTRO to shock
Shock What is shock? Inadequate cellular oxygenation Hypotension? Vasopressor-o-penia? Inadequate cellular oxygenation Oxygen delivery equation DO2 = CaO2 x Q CaO2 = (1.34 x Hgb x SaO2) + (0.003 x PaO2) Q = HR x SV “The final common pathway before death” Josh Farkas, MD in IBCC

Determining type of shock He’s been having diarrhea for the last week, today he was too weak to get out of bed. He said he was feeling dizzy earlier. History taking Physical exam Invasive testing Central line – CVP, ScvO2 PA catheter – PCWP, SvO2 Measures of cardiac output Bioimpedence Vigileo Lidco Esophageal doppler Echocardiogram/POCUS

Surviving Sepsis Initially conceived following the Rivers trial and before ProCESS. Quality improvement in the care of sepsis 1 hour bundle Measure lactate, obtain cultures, start antibiotics, fluid resuscitate (30cc/kg) and start vasopressors
