• stroke volume.

• physical size.

• mast cells.

Anaphylactic shock is characterized by:

• hypertension and vasoconstriction.

• wheezing and widespread vasodilation.

• hypotension and hives.

• crackles (rales) and stridor.

What process do cells undergo in the absence of oxygen to produce energy?

• aerobic respiration.

• anaerobic respiration.

• photosynthesis.

• osmotic pressure.

Distributive shock occurs when:

• blood moves from the core of the body.

• blood pools in expanded vascular structures.

• microorganisms attack the body.

• a significant decrease in stroke volume occurs.

How does the body respond to hypoperfusion?

• Decreased preload and heart rate

• Increased systemic vascular resistance

• Systemic hypoxia decreases vascular resistance.

• Decreased cardiac oxygen demand

The worst respiratory sign in a patient with anaphylactic shock is:

• diminished lung sounds.

• loud expiratory wheezing.

• diffuse coarse crackles.

• labored breathing.

Will a patient who has been hyperventilating have signs and symptoms of respiratory acidosis or respiratory alkalosis?

• Respiratory acidosis

• Respiratory alkalosis

• Metabolic alkalosis

• Metabolic acidosis

What is the primary cause of cardiogenic shock?

• Massive infection leading to systemic vasodilation.

• Severe allergic reaction causing airway compromise.

• Severe myocardial infarction

• Loss of blood volume from trauma or bleeding.

What is the effect of epinephrine on a patient experiencing anaphylactic shock?

• Decreases heart rate and increases vasodilation.

• Increases heart rate and vasoconstriction.

• Suppresses immune response to allergens.

• Induces diuresis to decrease blood volume.

What is the primary mechanism of injury in neurogenic shock?

• Massive systemic infection leading to vasodilation.

• Spinal cord injury leading to loss of sympathetic tone.

• Severe allergic reaction causing airway compromise.

• Loss of blood volume from trauma or bleeding.
