1.Endocrine System Several glands: - ANSWER> Pituitary
>Thyroid
>Parathyroid
>Adrenal
>Pancreatic islets
>Testes
2. Endocrine System - ANSWER Effects almost every cell, organ &function
Closely linked with the nervous & immune systems
Negative feedback mechanism
Hormones
3. Pituitary - ANSWER "Master Gland"
Influences other endocrine glands
Anterior & posterior lobes
Controlled by hypothalamus
4. ~Anterior Pituitary - ANSWER Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
Luteinizing hormone (LH)
Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)
Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)
,*Growth hormone (GH or somatotropin)
5. Posterior Pituitary - ANSWER *Anti-diuretic Hormone (ADH)
Oxytocin
6. Anti-diuretic hormone (ADH) - ANSWER Produced by hypothalamus -- Secreted
by the posterior pituitary
Causes contraction of smooth muscle - especially blood vessels
Very important in maintaining water balance!
Increases BP
Triggered by dehydration
Reason why very little urination at night/while asleep

SIADH
DI

8. Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion (SIADH) - ANSWER
Excessive ADH secretion from pituitary
Cannot excrete dilute urine
Fluid overload
Develop a sodium deficiency (dilutional hyponatremia)
, 9. Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion (SIADH)

Diuretics
Restrict fluid intake
I&O
Daily Wt
Replace Na+
10. (SIADH) Signs/Symptoms - ANSWER due to water retention
