Hyperpituitarism: Primary Adenoma - answer Usually
benign slow growing tumors, secretes hormone of cell it
grew from. Paradoxically the pressure produced is
associated with decrease secretion of neighboring
pituitary hormones
diabetes insipidus - answer results from insufficient ADH.
S/S polyuria, polydipsia, thirst. High serum osmolality.
hypernatremia d/t decrease h2o because of excessive
urination
, Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH) -
answer High levels of ADH. Hypovolemia (excessive h20)
leads to hyponatremia. s/s Headache, confusion. Urine
osmolality test can help identify.
Hypothyroidism symptoms - answer "slowing down"
confusion, syncope, decreased libido, ED, anemia,
***dyspnea***, reduced renal blood flow, constipation,
weight gain, fluid retention, dry flaky skin, course hair
slow, Bradycardia
Hypothyroidism - answer decrease energy metabolism
slows down system. Hashimoto disease
Hyperthyroidism - answer Increased thyroid stimulation.
Graves disease
Hyperthyrodism symptoms - answer Speed up. Enlarged
thyroid gland (goiter), weight loss, increased peristalsis,
ED decreased libido, tachycardia at rest, eye bulge,
restlessness, fatigue tremor, insomnia, ***DYSPNEA***
Hypoparathyroidism - answer low PTH levels. Calcium and
phosphate are regulated by PTH. Important concept:
decreased calcium levels PTH increases osteoclastic
activity (breakdown of bones to release Calcium) &
increased calcium levels suppress secretion of PTH.
