Name the three categories of cardiogenic shock
In the context of neonatology, name pathologies responsible for mechanical cardiogenic shock
Causes of cardiomyopathic cardiogenic shock in neonates
-dilated, restrictive, hypertrophic
causes of obstructive shock in neonates
PPHN
Tension pneumothorax
pulmonary embolism (rare)
cardiac tamponade (rare)
causes of distributive shock in neonates
causes of hemorrhagic shock in neonates
causes of non-hemorrhagic hypovolemic shock in neonates
2. diarrhea, vomiting
common causes of hemodynamic instability in preterm neonates
-Failed adaptation to transition
-PDA
-Sepsis/NEC
-Low pulmonary BF
(PPHN, High MAP)
Common causes of hemodynamic instability in the term neonate
HIE (acidosis complications)
Pulmonary HTN
Sepsis
Septal hypertrophy (GDM)
Factors contributing to low DBP
VASODILATION
-sepsis/nec/rx
ENLARGED VASCULAR TONE
-HD significant PDA/AVM/Giant hemangioma/Bronchopulmonary sequestion
HYPOVOLEMIA
-Cap leak/hemorrhage/transepidural h20 loss, excessive diuresis
Factors contributing to low SBP
Rational for Hydrocortisone in shock
Data suggests that critical illness induces a state of absolute or relative adrenal insufficiency that may contribute to shock.
The purpose of administering glucocorticorticoids to patients with sepsis is to restore a balance to the HPA-axis, with the end goal of improving clinically meaningful outcomes such as mortality
Also, neonates dont have the endogenous ability to secrete cortisol the same as an adult is able to
Hydrocortison onset and pharmacodynamic
A short acting corticosteroid with minimal sodium-retaining potential. it decreases inflammation by suppression of migration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and reversal of increased capillary permeability.
onset 1 hour
When to consider Hydrocortison?
Once on 2 line vasopressors

what receptors does DOBUTAMINE work on
aBBB
what effects does DOBUTAMINE do do SVR
decrease SVR because of Beta 2 receptors.
Effects of DOBUTAMINE on PVR
decrease PVR
