Shock Tactics

Shock is a life-threatening condition of circulatory failure that most commonly presents with hypotension. The effects of shock are initially reversible but can rapidly become irreversible, resulting in multi-organ failure (MOF) and death. when a patient present with undifferentiated hypotension, it is important that the clinician rapidly identify the aetiology so that appropriate therapy can be administered to prevent MOF and death (Vincent, 2013). Assessment of hemodynamic status in a shock state

Chapter 67: Nursing Management: Shock, Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome, and Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome Test Bank MULTIPLE CHOICE 1. A 78-kg patient with septic shock has a urine output of 30 mL/hr for the past 3 hours. The pulse rate is 120/minute and the central venous pressure and pulmonary artery wedge pressure are low. Which order by the health care provider will the nurse question? a. Give PRN furosemide (Lasix) 40 mg IV. b. Increase normal saline infusion to 250 mL/hr. c.

American Directness and the Japanese American and Japanese ways of speaking are so different that they often cause culture shock to both Americans and Japanese who visit each other's country. Most Japanese who come to the United States are at first shocked and have a problem with the American direct way of speaking. Culture shock occurs because most Japanese cannot easily escape from the formula "politeness= indirectness." Compared to the American way of speaking, Japanese speak much more indirectly

do so. A second later she asked him again, then remarking firmly. She discussed with the experimenter about the learner's medical condition. In this particular case the learner has heart problems. The experimenter explained to Mrs. Brant that the shocks may be painful but they are not dangerous and again asked her to continue with the experiment. At that point she was not willing to ask the experimenter to stop anymore; she then wanted to ask the learner himself. She told the experimenter that she

On Thursday, the 4th of December 2014 at 0730hrs, a call was received of a forty one (41) year old female whose chief complaint was abdominal pain with nil other symptoms. The call was assigned Code Two, and the crew was dispatched to the private residence the call originated from. On arrival, the patient was found in the main bedroom laying supine, guarding the lower abdominal area and as the crew entered the room, the patient curled up onto her side. The patient stated eight out of ten (8/10) pain

cellulitis to septic shock”. Cellulitis is the starting cause of an infection that will lead through the sepsis cycle, finishing with the severe part septic shock (Swartz, 2004). Analysation of the interrelationships between localised infection, systemic inflammation response syndrome (SIRS), and the sepsis course will be discussed throughout this report. Additionally, this report will incorporate comprehensive detail of the physiological systemic weakening that can prompt septic shock. Finally, in-depth

people. He thought the atrocities committed during WWII could be attributed to a highly obedient country and culture. Milgram would soon come to realize obedience is an integral part of human nature. Milgram theorized that if a person was asked to shock another person within an experiment, they would quit before reaching high voltages. The three roles in his experiment would be the learner, the experimenter, and the teacher; the subject of Milgram’s study was

participants continued sending the shocks even though the learner was screaming and shouting. During the experiment many of the participants were uncomfortable and angry at the experimenter and yet they still continued following instructions until the end of the experiment (Cherry, n.d.). These participants had believed that the experimenter would be held responsible for any potential after effects of the experiment and not them therefore continued sending shocks to the learner in the experiment (Feldman

On September 6th, 2017, I saw the play 1984 by George Orwell at The Hippodrome Theatre in Gainesville. The play was about how the main character Winston, who’s portrayed by Niail McGinty, goes on a journey to rebel against the party in control of his country, the Inner Party, and he runs into somebody he believes is an ally to him, O’Brien, who is portrayed by V Craig Heidenreich, but he is really a part of the Inner Party. They eventually convince Winston to believe in the Inner Party and their
