Acquired Metabolic Disorder Flashcards
Causes of HONK
hemoconcentration and prerenal azotemia
Pathogenesis of Dialysis Dementia Encephalopathy
Aluminum Toxicity
Extrapontine sites of osmotic demyelination
Internal capsule deep white matter corpus callosum thalamus subthalamus amygdaloid Lateral geniculate
This condition would manifest as paresthesia, tetany, seizure and papilledema due to increased intracranial pressure
Hypocalcemia
What is the compensatory mechanism would result in response to reduction in cerebral perfusion
Vasodilation of resistance vessel
Pathological feature of CPM
destruction of myelinated sheath sparing the axons (severe at the center of pons)
Most common manifestation of DDS
Headache 70%
This substance accumulates in globus pallidus in the presence of hepatic disease
Manganese
This condition is characterized by rapid changes in water balance to osmotic demyelination
Sepsis and Burns encephalopathy
Treatment for chronic altitude sickness
alcohol elevation of PCO2 acclimatization 2-4 days
How to correct sodium
([target Na - starting Na] x 0.6) x weight (kg) = infused Na load (mEq)
What is universal to hyperthyroidism
Action tremor
Ischemic-Hypoxic Encephalopathy usually result from
Lack of O2 and Blood flow to brain
Complication of uremic encephalopathy
- ICH/Subdural 2. Infection - meningitis
When does CT scan findings of carbon monoxide may present
1-4 weeks
This result to depletion of ATP in midbrain reticular nuclei
Elevated level of ammonia
Cyclosporine causes following condition
Edema of cerebral white matter PRES
Seizure is common in what acquired metabolic disorder
Hyponatremia Hyperosmolar
What are the antibody and serves as a markers in celiac disease
antiTransglutaminase antiEndomysium
What parameters should be measured in uremic encephalopathy
Calcium Manganese
This is the most reliable indicator of impending coma during the early phase of disorder
EEG
This is associated with alcoholism with clinical ataxia of gait
Cerebellar ataxia with myxedema
EEG findings of Brain Death
Isoelectric
Normal Serum Osmolarity
270 - 290
