Proceso de atención de enfermería en paciente adolescente de 16 años con shock hipovolemico.

Hypovolemic shock, also known as hemorrhagic shock, is defined as an emergency condition where severe blood loss makes the heart not able to pump enough blood throughout the body, the reduction of oxygen to lower levels does not allow the correct functioning for a good metabolism (Lopez, Pérez, & Ximena, 2018). According to WHO statistics, it was shown that the majority of the patients were 61.5% female, which is clearly related to the most frequent cause of shock, since 44.4% of hypovolemic shock cases are of gynecological-obstetric origin (MSP, 2019). However, it is important to know that hypovolemic shock differs from other causes of shock by the patient's history and the absence of signs of heart failure or sepsis. The clinical picture includes anxiety or agitation, paleness, tachypnea, diaphoresis, among others. Therefore, recovery will depend on the degree of hypovolemia, the patient's previous situation and the speed of diagnosis and treatment (López, Pérez, & Ximena, 2018). The nursing process was developed for children under 16 years of age with a diagnosis of hypovolemic shock with the aim of being able to contribute to improving the health status of the patient, through the preparation and execution of the nursing care plan. According to the needs required by the patient during their hospital stay, using the NANDA, NIC and NOC taxonomy as essential tools.
