Pales, bone Ca Flashcards
if Ca is too high what is released from thyroid
calcitonin to increase Ca deposition
if Ca is too low what does PTgland release
PTH to increase Ca release from bone
how does PTH increase Ca release
activates the osteoblasts which activates osteoclasts
how does low Mg change PTH secretion
decreases it
how does PTH change phosphate leves
decreases them because increases renal secretion
effects of active Vit D3 on Ca and PO4
increases Ca and PO4 absorption in gut
decreases PTH
What meds can cause hyperCa
Vit D
thiazide diuretics
lithium
tamoxifen
what granulomatous disorders can lead to hyper Ca
sarcoidosis
TB
wegeners
fungal
what endocrine disorders can lead to hyperCa
hyperthyroidism, adrenal insufficiency pheochromocytoma
VIP-oma
what are the malignancy associated causes hyper Ca
local osteolytic multiplem myeloma primary bone turnover metastatic to bones PTH-RP
how does primary hyperPTH present
asymptomatic hyperCa or with renal stones
what type of acid base status will a patient be in primary hyperPTH
non anion gap metabolic acidosis
what type of bone loss do you have in hyperPTH
cortical bone loss leasing to osteoporosis
tertiary hyperPTH
reduced activation Vit D from chronic renal disease leading to elevated PTH
what part of dialysis can cause increase in PTH
aluminum containing PO4 binders that increases PTH and leads to osteomalacia
inheritance of familial benign hypocalciuric hypercalcemia
autosomal dominant loss of function mutation in CaSR on PTH cells and renal tubules
PTH and Mg levels in familial benign hypocalciuric hypercalcemia
mildly elevated PTH and Mg
Signs and Sx hypercalcemia
fatigue, polyuria, weakness, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, constipation, abdominal pain, lethargy, mental status change
how does hyper Ca affect pancreas
can lead to pancreatitis which will eventually produce hypocalcemia
band keratopathy
Ca deposits in cornea
what is osteitis fibrosa caystica
chronic bone resorption, demineralization, cystic bone lesions
from excessive PTH
what is an abnormal PTH value if detect hyperCa
normal or high because should be low
hyper Ca and have normal or high PTH
next test?
24 hr urinary Ca to rule out the benign familial (low urinary Ca)
if high urinary Ca then probably primary hyperPTH
Tx for hyperCa
IV fluids, loop diuretics, IV bisphosphonates Calcitonin glcocorticoids cinacalcet hemodialysis
what msut you do if put patient on loop diuretic for hyperCa
replace fluids
why give glucocorticoids in hyperCa
help counter effects of too much vit D in blood from hyperCa
when do you use dialysis to Tx hyperCa
hemodialysis
