Question 1 of 5
1. Question
A 42-year-old male patient arrives at emergency following a serious road accident. He exhibits symptoms of severe neck pain, reduced mobility in his limbs, bradycardia with a heart rate of 55 beats/minute, and hypotension with a systolic blood pressure of 85 mm Hg. He has a known medical history of hypertension, which is managed with regular medication. Based on the symptoms and his condition, the diagnosing physician suspects that he may have sustained an injury to his spinal cord, leading to neurogenic shock.
What is the optimal target mean arterial pressure for a patient diagnosed with neurogenic shock?

He is complaining of severe neck and back pain at the Emergency Department (ED), where spinal instability is suspected. His blood pressure is 70/40mmHg, pulse is at 55 bpm, his respiratory rate is 30bpm, and his oxygen saturation is 90% at room air. A cervical CT scan reveals a C5 vertebral fracture, and a diagnosis of neurogenic shock is considered.

Question 4 of 5
4. Question
A 75-year-old male patient has been brought into the emergency department after a fall at his home. Initial assessment reveals him to be conscious but reporting significant dizziness. EMS initiated an IV line in transit and he received a 2-liter bolus of normal saline. On arrival, his blood pressure is 80/60 mmHg, pulse is 130 beats/min, and body temperature is 37.5C. His jugular veins appear flat and the capillary filling time is more than 3 seconds. Vascular parameters have been measured revealing a low Cardiac Index, low Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), but high Systemic vascular resistance.
Based on the findings, which of the following is the most probable diagnosis?
CorrectIncorrect -
