CHANNELOPATHIES Flashcards
Episodic MUSCLE WEAKNESS
⭐ Metabolic MYOPATHIES
⭐ Channelopathies
Acute FLACCID AREFLEXIC WEAKNESS
Causes
- HYPO- Na+
- HYPO-K+ / HYPER-K+
- HYPO-Ca2+ / HYPER-Ca2+
- HYPO-PO4³
Difference between
Hypokalemic Paralysis
and
Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis
Hypokalemic Paralysis
⭐ acute flaccid AREFLEXIC weakness due to HYPOKALEMIA
Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis
⭐ Recurrent episodes of Hypokalemic Paralysis where cause is NOT FOUND (that why Hypokalemic occuring regularly)
HYPOKALEMIA ➕ ACIDOSIS
RTA
VIPoma
HYPOKALEMIA ➕ ALKALOSIS ➕ BP- Normal
⭐ Bartter’s
⭐ Gitelman
HYPOKALEMIA ➕ ALKALOSIS ➕ BP ⬆️
⭐ Conn’s
⭐ Liddle’s
⭐ Cushing
