---|---|---|---|---|---|
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) functions | maintain blood Ca concentration
🗑
|
||||
PTH actions | increase Ca resorption from bone; increase Ca reabsorption from kidney; increase Ca absorption in intestines
🗑
|
||||
PTH directly stimulates: | bone (Ca and phosphorous resorption), kidney (production of calcitriol; Ca reabsorption; phosphorous excretion)
🗑
|
||||
PTH indirectly (through the kidney) stimulates: | bone resorption of Ca and phosphorous, intestinal absorption of Ca and phosphorous
🗑
|
||||
Increased phosphorous causes _____ (increased or decreased) PTH: | increased PTH
🗑
|
||||
Increased Ca causes _____ (increased or decreased) PTH: | decreased PTH
🗑
|
||||
Decreased Ca causes _____ (increased or decreased) PTH: | increased PTH
🗑
|
||||
Decreased phosphorous causes _____ (increased or decreased) PTH: | decreased PTH
🗑
|
||||
Phosphorous and PTH have what kind of relationship? | Direct relationship
🗑
|
||||
Ca and PTH have what kind of relationship? | Inverse relationship
🗑
|
||||
Increased calcitriol causes _____ (increased or decreased) PTH: | decreased PTH
🗑
|
||||
Decreased calcitriol causes _____ (increased or decreased) PTH: | increased PTH
🗑
|
||||
Calcitriol = ? | active vitamin D; 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D
🗑
|
||||
Calcitriol and PTH have what kind of relationship? | inverse relationship
🗑
|
||||
Parathyroid studies | PTH, serum Ca, serum phosphorous
🗑
|
||||
Primary hyperparathyroidism levels | Inreased Ca; decreased-to-normal phosphorous; increased PTH
🗑
|
||||
Secondary hyperparathyroidism | normal Ca; increased phosphorous; increased PTH
🗑
|
||||
Hypoparathyroidism | decreased Ca; increased phosphorous; decreased PTH
🗑
|
||||
Pseudohypoparathyroidism | decreased Ca; increased phosphorous; increased PTH
🗑
|
||||
Pseudohypoparathyroidism is a problem with: | decreased tissue sensitivity to PTH (increased resistance to PTH)
🗑
|
||||
Hypoparathyroidism is a problem with: | deficiency of PTH
🗑
|
||||
Hyperparathyroidism is a problem with: | abnormally increased PTH
🗑
|
||||
Secondary hyperparathyroidism is a problem with: | renal insufficiency
🗑
|
||||
Most common cause of hypercalcemia in ambulatory patients | hyperparathyroidism
🗑
|
||||
Most frequent patient population of hyperparathyroidism | postmenopausal women
🗑
|
||||
80% of hyperparathyroidism cases are due to: | solitary parathyroid adenoma
🗑
|
||||
18% of hyperparathyroidism cases are due to: | hyperplasia of all 4 parathyroid glands
🗑
|
||||
Primary hyperparathyroidism | caused by one or more hyperfunctioning parathyroid glands that secrete excess PTH
🗑
|
||||
Primary hyperparathyroidism causes increased Ca due to: | increased bone resorption, increased kidney reabsorption, increased intestinal absorption
🗑
|
||||
Primary hyperparathyroidism is caused by: | adenoma, hyperplasia, carcinoma
🗑
|
||||
Secondary hyperparathyroidism is caused by: | pathological condition outside of the parathyroid glands, usually due to long-standing renal insufficiency
🗑
|
||||
Secondary hyperparathyroidism leads to: | chronic hypocalcemia (due to decreased renal reabsorption of Ca); increased PTH levels (trying to increase Ca levels); parathyroid gland hyperplasia (due to elevated PTH)
🗑
|
||||
Hyperparathyroidism s/s | stones, bones, abdominal groans, psychic moans, fatigue overtones
🗑
|
||||
Most common presentation of hyperparathyroidism | asymptomatic!
🗑
|
||||
hyperparathyroidism diagnostic studies | Ca (high in primary, normal in secondary); phosphorous (low-normal in primary, high in secondary); PTH (high in primary and secondary)
🗑
|
||||
Hyperparathyroidism treatment | primary (none, surgical excision); secondary (restrict dietary phosporous, phosphate-binding resins, vitamin D, calcitriol) - goal is raise serum Ca level
🗑
|
||||
Hypoparathyroidism is caused by: | 80% is caused by neck surgery (thyroid or parathyroid surgery); severe magnesium deficiency
🗑
|
||||
Pseudohypoparathyroidism is caused by: | increased target organ/tissue resistance to PTH
🗑
|
||||
Hypoparathyroidism s/s | s/s of hypocalcemia
🗑
|
||||
Chvostek's sign | involuntary twitching of the facial muscles initiated by light tapping of the facial nerve anterior to the auditory meatus
🗑
|
||||
Trousseau's sign | carpopedal spasm due to reduction in blood supply (BP cuff inflated for a few minutes above elbow)
🗑
|
||||
Hypoparathyroidism diagnostic studies | Ca (low in both); phosphorous (elevated in both); PTH (decreased in hypoparathyroidism, elevated in pseudohypoparathyroidism)
🗑
|
||||
Hypoparathyroidism treatment | acute (IV Ca, calcitriol); chronic (vitamin D, dietary Ca supplements)
🗑
|
||||
Pseudohypoparathyroidism treatment | vitamin D, dietary Ca supplements
🗑
