OBSTRUCTIVE SHOCK Quiz 1

What are the common causes of obstructive shock?

• Dehydration, heat stroke, and hypoglycemia

• High blood pressure, diabetes, and migraine

• Broken bone, allergic reaction, and food poisoning

• Pulmonary embolism, tension pneumothorax, and cardiac tamponade are common causes of obstructive shock.

How does pulmonary embolism lead to obstructive shock?

• Increase in oxygen levels and decrease in pulmonary vascular resistance

• Decrease in oxygen levels and decrease in pulmonary vascular resistance

• Decrease in oxygen levels and increase in pulmonary vascular resistance

• No change in oxygen levels and decrease in pulmonary vascular resistance

What role does cardiac tamponade play in causing obstructive shock?

• It has no effect on the heart

• It decreases pressure on the heart

• It compresses the heart and prevents proper filling

• It increases blood flow to the heart

What are the effects of tension pneumothorax on the cardiovascular system leading to obstructive shock?

• Increased cardiac output and obstructive shock

• Increased blood pressure and obstructive shock

• No effect on cardiac output and obstructive shock

• Decreased cardiac output and obstructive shock

How can aortic dissection result in obstructive shock?

• Increased blood flow to the rest of the body

• No effect on blood flow to the rest of the body

• Decreased blood flow to the rest of the body

• Normal blood flow to the rest of the body

Explain how constrictive pericarditis can cause obstructive shock.

• Constrictive pericarditis restricts heart chamber filling, leading to decreased cardiac output and systemic hypotension.

• Constrictive pericarditis has no effect on heart chamber filling or cardiac output.

• Constrictive pericarditis causes the heart to pump blood more efficiently, leading to increased cardiac output and systemic hypertension.

• Constrictive pericarditis increases heart chamber filling, leading to increased cardiac output and systemic hypertension.

What is the relationship between massive pulmonary embolism and obstructive shock?

• There is a direct relationship between massive pulmonary embolism and obstructive shock.

• There is no relationship between massive pulmonary embolism and obstructive shock

• Obstructive shock is caused by dehydration and has no connection to pulmonary embolism

• Massive pulmonary embolism causes hypovolemic shock instead of obstructive shock

How does aortic stenosis contribute to the development of obstructive shock?

• Widening of the aortic valve leading to decreased blood flow

• No effect on cardiac output

• Decrease in cardiac output due to narrowing of the aortic valve

• Increase in cardiac output due to narrowing of the aortic valve

Describe the impact of pericardial effusion on the occurrence of obstructive shock.

• Pericardial effusion improves the heart's ability to pump blood

• Pericardial effusion can lead to obstructive shock by compressing the heart and impairing its ability to pump blood effectively.

• Pericardial effusion reduces the risk of obstructive shock

• Pericardial effusion has no impact on obstructive shock

What is the connection between abdominal compartment syndrome and obstructive shock?

• Obstructive shock is caused by a different condition unrelated to abdominal compartment syndrome

• There is no connection between abdominal compartment syndrome and obstructive shock

• Abdominal compartment syndrome causes hypovolemic shock instead of obstructive shock

• There is a direct connection between abdominal compartment syndrome and obstructive shock.
