Medical Student Small Group Discussion Topics Shock and Hemodynamic Management A 32 year-old man was driving drunk and without his seatbelt fastened when he was involved in a single-vehicle automobile collision.

Medical Student Small Group Discussion Topics Shock and Hemodynamic Management A 32 year-old man was driving drunk and without his seatbelt fastened when he was involved in a single-vehicle automobile collision. When attended by EMT personnel, no information was available about the time of the accident. He was found agitated and complaining of abdominal pain. His airway was patent. At the scene, he was breathing at 20 per minute with a blood pressure of 90/60 and a pulse of 130. He was placed in a hard cervical collar and on a back board and transported to your emergency room. Upon arrival his vital signs are the same, with a temperature of 36°C. His abdomen is markedly distended. His hands and feet are cold, his legs mottled. A nasogastic tube reveals green liquid. A urinary catheter reveals dark yellow urine. His hemoglobin is 12. His abdominal lavage reveals gross blood.

Medical Student Small Group Discussion Topics Shock and Hemodynamic Management A 55 year-old man with stable angina undergoes an uneventful sigmoid resection for diverticular disease.

Medical Student Small Group Discussion Topics Shock and Hemodynamic Management A 55 year-old man with stable angina undergoes an uneventful sigmoid resection for diverticular disease. The patient’s angina occurs twice a week while walking uphill and is treated with nitoglycerin. On postoperative day four he develops severe substernal chest pain, sudden hypotension (85/45), tachycardia (120), and becomes agitated. Physical exam reveals body mottling, cold hands and feet, distended neck veins and an S3 gallop. ECG demonstrates elevated ST-T wave segments in all of the anterior leads.

Medical Student Small Group Discussion Topics Shock and Hemodynamic Management A 35 year-old man dove into three feet of water at a swimming pool, did not emerge and was rescued by friends who performed CPR.

Medical Student Small Group Discussion Topics Shock and Hemodynamic Management A 35 year-old man dove into three feet of water at a swimming pool, did not emerge and was rescued by friends who performed CPR. When the EMTs arrived they found the patient to have blood pressure of 80/50, pulse 60, and no spontaneous respirations, although he was opening his eyes. They began ambu bag assistance of respiration and placed a hard cervical collar. He was placed on a back board and transported to your emergency room. Upon arrival he has the same vital signs with warm hands and feet and pink extremities. He is unable to move any of his extremities. His anal sphincter tone is lax and he has no deep tendon reflexes in his extremities.

Medical Student Small Group Discussion Topics Shock and Hemodynamic Management A 65 year-old man with known coronary artery disease is admitted with acute left lower quadrant pain of six hours duration. The patient had a myocardial infarction three years earlier and is currently taking beta-blockers. His blood pressure is 90/50, pulse 120, respiration 18, temperature 39°C. He is flushed with warm hands and warm feet, his legs are pink. Physical examination reveals findings consistent with peritonitis in the left lower quadrant.
