Distributive shock is caused by
The "container" getting larger but the amount of "fluid" remaining the same, causing hypoperfusion
The "fluid" draining out of the "container," causing hypoperfusion
Diarrhea and vomiting
An arterial bleed
A patient has an open femur fracture with an active arterial bleed. Your first step is to:
Stop the life-threatening bleed with a tourniquet
Wrap the patient in a warm blanket
Start fluid resuscitation
Elevate the patient's feet
Give the patient 100% oxygen via non-rebreather mask at 15LPM
The "triangle of death" is composed of
Coagulopathy, metabolic acidosis, and hypothermia
Muffled heart sounds, hypotension, and jugular vein distension
Erythema, flatulence, and sweating
Chills, fever, and vomiting
A patient that has lost 500mL of blood is said to be in
Compensated shock
Decompensated shock
Irreversible shock
Hematological shock
Treatment for shock requires
Fluid resuscitation, oxygen, and warming the patient
Defibrillation, oxygen, and elevating the patient's head
Refrigerated fluid resuscitation, laying the patient prone, and massaging the legs
Jumping jacks, oral rehydration solution, blankets
