kidneys?
3 Hashimoto's thyroiditis 4 microcytic anemia
Don't know?
Terms in this set (127)
Pernicious anemia lack of intrinsic factor, decreased b12
beefy red tongue, fatigue, paresthesia of hands/feet,
Pernicious anemia s/s
fatigue
macrocytic anemias Pernicious anemia, folate deficiency anemia >103mm
causes of macrocytic liver disease, low b12 or folate, gastrectomy,
anemias malabsorption, alcoholics
, iron deficiency, anemia of chronic disease late stage,
microcytic anemia lead poisoning, thalassemias,, occult blood in stool,
menorrhagia, <87mm
anemia of chronic disease, sickle cell, impaired bone
normocytic anemia
marrow, hemolytic anemia, 87-103mm
primary storage for iron ferritin >100 = normal
increased ferritin inflammatory disease, hepatitis, CRF,
regulates iron absorption and transport in body, low
transferrin
levels = protein malnutrition, >200 is normal
total iron binding capacity high when iron low 240-450
(TIBC) > 400 with iron deficiency anemia
Primary hypothyroidism High TSH, low T3 and T4
Secondary hypothyroidism low TSH, low T3/T4, malfunction of pituitary
Hashimoto's thyroiditis autoimmune thyroiditis, high TSH, low T3/T4
Myxedema puffy face with hypothyroid
autoimmune disorder leading to hyperthyroidism,
Grave's disease
antibodies mimicking TSH, high T4/T3
Primary Hyperthyroidism Low TSH High T3,T4
excessive iodine uptake hyperthyroidism
first test for thyroid TSH
TSH improvement after 6-8 weeks
levothyroxine
subclinical hypothyroid elevated TSH, normal T4 and Free T4
treat hyperthyroidism- agranulocytosis and liver disease
PTU, methimazole
SE
prevalence of HTN after 65 higher in women
years of age
DBP stabilizes? age 50 and older, SBP worsens
dipping at night by 15%. non-dipper = high risk for CVD
nocturnal BP
and renal disease
most effective for ACE inhibitors
decreasing LVH
stage 1 HTN 140-159/90-99
