Stage 4

24
Q

CAH labs

A

Hyponatremia
Hyperkalemia
Metabolic acidosis - from last of aldosterone which normally excretes H+

25
Q

Septo optic dysplasia crisis - how to tx

A

IV hydrocortisone

26
Q

HHS

A

severe hyperglycemia (blood glucose >800 mg/dL; 44 mmol/L
absence of or only slight ketosis
nonketotic acidosis
severe dehydration
depressed sensorium or frank coma
various neurologic signs that may include grand mal seizures, hyperthermia, hemiparesis, and positive Babinski signs

27
Q

6y F has pubic and axillary hair. No other signs of puberty. Where should you look for pathology

A

ADRENALS

28
Q

T2DM renal screening

treatment

A

yearly screening with a random spot urine sample for albumin to creatinine ratio

Abnormal results should be confirmed by 2 additional specimens on separate days

Mgmt: ctrl DM, SBP, ACEi and protein restrict

(1) meticulous control of hyperglycemia
(2) aggressive control of SBP
(3) selective control of arteriolar dilation by use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (thus decreasing transglomerular capillary pressure)
(4) dietary protein restriction (because high protein intake increases the renal perfusion rate)

29
Q

TSH newborn screen
false positive screen
false negative screen

A

Positive:

  • In early discharged babies (in the first day or two), because of the cold-induced TSH surge, TSH values are found to be elevated.
  • Intrauterine exposure to antithyroid drugs

Negative:

  • Central (TSH abd FT4 are low)
  • Premature <30 wks
30
