Which of the following statements regarding prehospital treatment of cardiogenic shock is most correct?
Administer a 1000ml crystallised bolus if the patients lungs are clear
Dopamine influences greater than 10mcg kg often cause bradycardia
Noradrenaline is the vasopressor of choice for prehospital blood pressure support
Prolonged efforts to stabilise the patient in the prehospital environment are not recommended
Cardiogenic shock would most likely develop from
Localised myocardial ischaemia
Any condition that causes an increased preload
Decompensated congestive heart failure
Damage to more than 10% of the left ventricle
Following the primary survey the next assessment priority for a patient with stroke symptoms is:
Blood pressure
ECG
Temperature
Blood glucose level
Which of the following statements regarding anaemia is most correct
Anaemia results in a decreased ability of the blood to carry oxygen
Patients with anaemia have a chronically low level of haemoglobin
Anaemia is a condition caused exclusively by a deficiency of iron
Anaemic patients typically present with flushed skin and tachycardia
Failure of the body's compensatory mechanisms to preserve perfusion results in all of the following EXCEPT:
Hypoperfusion
Low cardiac output
An increase in preload
Decreased coronary perfusion
Which of the following statements regarding hypotension and shock is most correct
Children experience hypotension more quickly than adults do
Hypotension is a classic sign of shock, but it occurs late
If hypotension is present, the patient is in irreversible shock
Hypotension often occurs before tachycardia in severe shock
