-
Low protein edema
Excess venous pressure or low plasma osmotic pressure
-
Hemorrhage
Excess discharge of blood from blood vessels
-
Petechiae
small purplish spot on a body surface
-
Purpura
characterized by hemorrhages in the skin and mucous membranes; appearence of purplish spots or patches
-
Ecchymoses
passage of blood from ruptured blood vessels into subcutaneous tissue; purple discoloration of skin
-
Hematomas
localized swelling filled with blood resulting from a break in blood vessel
-
Pulmonary embolism
An embolus usually formed in the leg
-
Emboli
A mass, such as an air bubble, a detached blood clot, or a foreign body, that travels through the bloodstream, and lodges so as to obstruct or occlude a blood vessel
-
Brain embolism
If a blood clot travels to the brain, this causes an ischemic stroke
-
Retinal embolism
Small clots that wouldn't block a major artery can block small the smaller blood vessels that feeding the retina. Can result in blindness
-
Septic embolism
Occurs when particles created by an infection in a body reach the bloodstream and block blood vessels
-
Amniotic ebolism
Amniotic fluid can embolize and reach the mothers lungs
-
Air embolism
Bubbles in the blood that can block arterial blood flow (ex-scuba divers that rise to the surface too quickly)
-
Fat embolism
If fat or bone marrow particles are introduced into the blood circulation they may block blood vessels the way a blood clot or air bubble can
-
Ischemia
A decrease in bood supply to a bodily organ, tissue, or part caused by constriction or obstruction of the blood vessels
-
Infarction
A condition in which a localized area of muscular tissue is dying or dead owing to insufficient amount of blood (ex. heart attack)
-
White infarction (anemic)
An infarct in which little or no bleeding into tissue occurs when the blood supply is obstructed
-
Red infarction (Bleeding)
Release of blood from the vascular system as a result of damage to a blood vessel
-
Infarct
An area of tissue that undergoes necrosis as a result of obstruction of local blood supply
-
Cardiogenic
Resulting from a disease or disorder of the heart
-
Hypovolemic
Decrease in the volume of circulating blood
-
Septic shock
Condition of physiologic shock cause by an overwhelming infection, especially sepsis or septicimia
-
Cardiogenic Shock
Associated with cardiac impairment such as acute infarction of the left ventricle or arrhythmias
-
Obstructive shock
Caused by cardiac tamponade or a pulmonary embolus that blocks blood flow through the heart
-
Hypovolemic Shock
Loss of blood or loss of plama from the circulating blood
-
Vasogenic Shock (Distributive shock)
May develop from pain, fear, drugs or loss of SNS stimuli with spinal cord injury
-
Anaphylactic Shock
Rapid general vasodilation due to the release of large amounts of histamine in a sever allergic reaction
