Task

  • This supplementary assessment aims to identify your understanding of the pathophysiology of the person experiencing shock and your ability to recognise clinical manifestations of deterioration, identify the deteriorating person’s physiological and compensatory mechanisms and describe appropriate nursing management needed to respond to acute deterioration.
  • Part A
  • You are required to provide written responses to a series of questions. Your response to each question should be guided by the suggested word length as indicated in the parentheses and needs to be evidence based.
  • No introduction of conclusion is required for this assessment task, however your responses must be written in an academic format with supporting evidence. In-text referencing and reference list presentation must comply with APA 7th ed. (2020) guidelines.
  • For guidance on standards for assessment preparation, including referencing, please see Assessment Preparation GuidelinesPart B

  • For this assignment, using the template provided, your care plan must have:
  • Two (2) priority actual or potential problems specific to Mrs Evans clinical scenario.
  • A person centred, achievable, realistic and timely goal for each problem.
  • Two (2) nursing interventions that address the cause of each problem.
  • An evidence based discussion supporting your interventions.
  • This discussion should provide an explanation of the best practice and evidence as to why these are the most appropriate interventions to address the cause of Mrs Evans problems, rather than a generic overview of the intervention.
  • No introduction of conclusion is required for this assessment task, however your responses must be written in an academic format with supporting evidence. In-text referencing and reference list presentation must comply with APA 7th ed. (2020) guidelines.

  • Process the information related to Mrs Evans and provide an evidence based discussion related to the type of shock she is experiencing including how her injuries could contribute to this shock state. (600 words)
  • Identify and define the determinants of cardiac output and describe how they work together to maintain mean arterial pressure (MAP) and how this relates to hypovolemic shock. (400 words)
  • Identify three (3) signs and symptoms Mrs Evans is exhibiting that demonstrate she is deteriorating and provide an evidence based rationale for each. (600 words)
