Q

Addison Disease Definition and etiology

A

primary adrenal insufficiency; insufficent cortisol and aldosterone due to destruction, partial or complete to adrenal glands
2ndary could be caused 2/2 decr ATCH release caused by a pituitary tumor or prolonged striod use. 2dary is more common but we will focus on primary
Etio:autoimmune reaction, infection, metastized cancer, CMV, tuberculosis, and hemmorage

Q

Addison Disease Clinical Presentation:

A
  • Cortisol mobilizes nutrients, modifies the body’s response to inflammation, stimulates the liver to raise blood sugar and helps to control the amount of water in the body.
  • Hypoglycemia can ensue
  • weak, exhausted, hypotensive, anorexia, weight loss, nausea and vomiting, Emotional disturbance and poor stress mgmt and darkenign of the skin
  • Aldosterone regulates salt and water levels which affects blood volume and blood pressure.
  • decr can cause hypotension, decr CO, dehydration,
  • Addisonian crisis, can progress quickly to hypovolemic shock (e.g., hypotension, tachycardia, and loss of consciousness) from rapid fluid loss

Q

Gastric Bypass Physical TherapyTests and Measures and Implications for evaluation and prax

A
  • sense effects of sx dont happen over night help pt get back to activity goals and monitor activity tolerance
  • tend to suffer from increased heat intolerance, so err on the side of caution to reports of excessive sweating and “over-heating” to avoid heat stroke/exhaustion
  • high risk of bone fractures
  • low intensity short duration
  • moderate aerobic exercise of at least 150 min/week and strength training 2-3 times/week can have a positive effect on bone mineral density
  • strengthen core and rpevent incision site adhesions
    • With Ex Rx **
  • Increased heat intolerance
  • Need for equipment modifications to fit body size
  • Reported pain as obesity tends to increase risk of LBP and joint pain
  • Selection of appropriate footwear as obesity can lead to poor foot mechanics

  • Repair of hiatal hernia if present. -
    Posterior portion of the stomach is mobilized from lesser sac
    -French Bougie is placed within the gastric sleeve that is left after removal of portion of stomach, which provides the new reduced stomach with structure and prevents leakage.

5 A’s
1. Assess: Tailor advice for PT by assessing their willingness to make change, potential barriers to change, goals. Barriers may include musculoskeletal conditions, lack of education,

  1. Advise: Educate- benefits of physical activity even after surgery, develop realistic expectations, what SE arent okay: nausea, or shortness of breath, set expectations for discomfort, soreness, tenderness. Aerobic exercise in bouts of 10 minutes or longer with a goal of 60 minutes per day.
  2. Agree: Collaboration with the patient on goals, type, duration, intensity, and frequency of exercise to increase likelihood of compliance.
  3. Assist: Provide more resources or printed info to help increase the benefit and compliance, online support groups, or tools for self-monitoring
  4. Arrange: Follow-up appointments with the patient one or two weeks after evaluation to provide further reinforcement and accountability.

A
  • Combines a sleeve gastrectomy (removal of between 60%-80% of the stomach) with an intestinal bypass, in which the end of the small intestine is connected to the duodenum near the pyloric valve
  • reduces caloric intake by reduction stomach and time in the small intestine for lesss nutrient absorbtion
  • Stomach is removed (often 80%) creating a small tube (GSleeve)
  • small intesitine (jejunum) is cut out with the distal end of illieum attached to the duodenum
41

- Vitamin B deficiencies (particularly B12), which can cause fatigue, anemia, and weakness
- Hypotension/Hypoglycemia
-Improved mood and quality of life scores
Weightloss
- Improved functional mobility due to weight loss
- Reduced complaints of pain
