22
Q

What is myasthenia gravis

A

Autoimmune destruction of ACh receptors characterized by fluctuating proximal muscle weakness, ocular symptoms and bulbar symptoms

23
Q

Differnce between myasthenic crisis and cholinergic crisis

A

Myasthenic crisis is acute worsening of symptoms due to infection, stress or UNDER medication

Cholinergic crisis is activation of cholinoreceptors (skeletal muscle weakness and parasympathetic signs) due to OVER medication

Q

How does edrophonium dicferentiate myasthenic crisis from cholinergic crisis?

A

Edrophonium IMPROVES muscle strength in myasthenic crisis and WEAKENS muscle strength on cholinergic chrisis
