Discussion - Anaphylactic Shock
Review "Anaphylactic Shock" in Chapter 24 of the Huether and McCance text, "Distributive Shock" in Chapter 10 of the McPhee and Hammer text, and the Jacobsen and Gratton article in the Learning Resources.
Identify the multisystem physiologic progression that occurs in anaphylactic shock. Think about how these multisystem events can occur in a very short period of time.
Consider when you should refer patients to emergency care versus treating as an outpatient.
Select two patient factors different from the one you selected in this week's first Discussion: genetics, gender, ethnicity, age, or behavior. Reflect on how the factors you selected might impact the process of anaphylactic shock.
Post an explanation of the physiological progression that occurs in anaphylactic shock. Then, describe the circumstances under which you would refer patients for emergency care versus treating as an outpatient. Finally, explain how the patient factors you selected might impact the process of anaphylactic shock.
