Endocrine Flashcards
Normal serum osmo
275-295
Hypertonic solutions
pull fluid from the cell to the vasculature
Hypotonic
pull fluid from the vasculature to the cell
alpha cells produce
glucagon
Beta cells produce
insulin
SIADH
Kidneys hold onto water and dilute Na
SIADH lab values
low serum sodium, low serum osmo <280, urine osmo >100 (concentrated urine)
SIADH treatment
water restriction, hypertonic saline, diuretics, sodium correction
DI
Lack of ADH– dump water
DI lab values
urine specific gravity <1.005, urine osmo <200, serum osmo >295, high serum Na, low urine osmo 50-200
DI treatment
DDAVP, fluid replacement
Hyperthyroidism labs
decreased TSH, increased T4
Hyperthyroidism symptoms
agitation, weight loss, tachycardia, palpitations, diaphoresis, hyperexia/fever (thyroid storm)
Hyperthyroidism treatment
propanolol, iodine, methimazole, PTU, hydrocortisone
Hypothyroidism labs
TSH increased, T4 decreased
