What is an adrenal crisis? Correct Answer - life threatening
vascular collapse
Acute Adrenal Hypofunction (insufficiency)
caused by a rapid withdraw of exogenous corticosteroids
Symptoms: weakness, dehydration, vascular collapse, and shock
Example of Acute Adrenal cortical Insufficiency? Correct Answer -
Waterhouse-Friderichsen syndrome
leads to severe adrenal hemorrhage
Example of chronic adrenal cortical insufficiency? Correct Answer
- addisons disease
caused by: reduced ACTH output or acute adrenal crisis
