1. B.M. is a 32-year old marine vet who was gravely injured in Iraq when his vehicle struck an improvised explosive device. He experienced severe burns over 50% of his body, which led to an immediate and precipitous increase in capillary permeability to proteins and fluids. How would B.M.'s burns affect the following: blood volume: blood pressure: hematocrit: What type of circulatory shock is this? 2. K.H. is a 4-year old boy who presents with fever (hyperthermia), mild tachycardia, and tachypnea (rapid breathing). A complete blood count (CBC) shows elevated white blood cells indicative of bacteremia (bacteria in the blood). He was found to have a S. aureus infection that led to systemic inflammatory response syndrome (sepsis). How would this condition affect the following (before compensation): vessel radius: blood pressure: cardiac output: What type of circulatory shock is this? 3. John was having a myocardial infarction (heart attack). He felt that he could not breath and was getting disoriented. How is John's MI affecting the following: cardiac output: blood pressure: oxygenation: What type of circulatory shock is this? 20-22 1.
