Prefusion by mechanism of alteration, Symptoms - Coggle Diagram
Prefusion by mechanism of alteration
Shunt Space
Adequate blood flow but insufficient ventilation
Causes
Lung Disease: COPD
Cardiac Defects: Abnormal mixing of oxygenated blood
Pneumonia., Pulmonary Edema
Treatment
Treatment of underlying cause of fluid build up
Respiratory support
Symptoms
Cynosis
Shortness of breath
Reparatory failure
Confusion
Ventilation -Perfusion(V/Q) Mismatch
Dead space
Ventilation is adequate but blood flow insufficient
Causes
Pulmonary Embolism :Ventilation without perfusion :
Hypoxia
Shortness of breath
Chest pain
rapid hear rate
Treatment
Oxygen therapy
Treatment of underlying condition
Medication: Antithrombotic medication
imbalance in air you breath and blood flow in lungs
Impaired Circulation
Symptoms
Numbness/Tingling
Poor temperature regulation of hands/feet
Pale or blue skin
Weakness of muscles
Causes: Obstacles in blood vessels making it hard for blood to get through
narrowed blood vessels
blood clots
Plaque buildup
Obesity
Hemmorage
Treatment
Treat underlying cause
Open blocked arteries(angioplasty
Medications/Blood thinners or meds to prevent plague build up
Inadequate Cardiac output: Occurs when heart can't pump enough blood to meet the needs of the body
Symptoms
Low blood pressure
Weak pulse
Fatigue
Cardiac Arrythmia
Causes
Blood vessel obstruction/ fluid build up around heart
Heart disease/Heart failure/Congenital heart irregularity s
High blood pressure
Treatment
Medications to help improve the contractability of the heart/Make it squeeze harder to pump more
Medication to relax the blood vessels/ promotes amore blood flow with less work when blood vessels are relaxed
Supplemental o2 to support the need for o2 in the body
Excessive perfusion demands: Can lead to altered tissue perfusion due to inability to meet the excessive demands
Symptoms
Degrease urine output
Dizziness/AMS/Slow to respond
Weakness
Pallor skin
Causes
Hypothyroidism
Prolonged exertion
Anemia
Treatment
Treat underlying cause
Fluid/volume replacement to meet the increased volume demands due to increased exertion
O2 support to meet increase metabolism and demand
Symptoms
