Disorders of Acid-Base Balance01:29

Disorders of Acid-Base Balance

2.5K
The human body maintains a precise pH range of arterial blood between 7.35 and 7.45. Deviations result in either acidosis (pH < 7.35) or alkalosis (pH > 7.45). These conditions are further classified as respiratory or metabolic disorders based on their underlying cause.
Respiratory Acidosis and Alkalosis
Respiratory acidosis occurs due to an increase in the partial pressure of carbon dioxide PCO2 in the blood. It often arises from shallow breathing or impaired gas exchange caused by...

Cardiovascular System Abnormal Findings II: Auscultation

806
Auscultation, an essential part of a heart examination, is done using a stethoscope. It provides crucial information about heart function and possible heart problems. Due to heart problems, abnormal sounds can be heard during systole or diastole. These sounds include S3 and S4 gallops, opening snaps, systolic clicks, and murmurs.

Acute Coronary Syndrome I: Introduction

1.8K
Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) encompasses a spectrum of heart conditions caused by sudden obstruction of coronary arteries, typically resulting from the rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque and subsequent thrombus (blood clot) formation. This obstruction can lead to partial or complete blockage of blood flow, causing varying degrees of myocardial ischemia or infarction.ACS includes the following clinical entities:Unstable Angina (UA)Non-ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI)ST-Elevation...

Acute Coronary Syndrome II: Pathophysiology and Clinical Manifestations

786
The pathophysiology of Acute Coronary Syndrome [ACD] involves several key processes:The main underlying cause of ACD is atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the buildup of lipid-laden plaques within the coronary arteries.As the atherosclerotic plaque grows in the coronary artery, it may become unstable due to the formation of a lipid-rich core and a thin fibrous cap. Inflammatory cells within the plaque, such as macrophages, secrete enzymes that degrade the...

Acute Coronary Syndrome III: Diagnostic Studies

468
Diagnosing acute coronary syndrome or ACS begins with a thorough patient history. Notable symptoms include central, crushing chest pain radiating to the left arm, neck, jaw, or back, along with shortness of breath, sweating (diaphoresis), nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and palpitations.It is crucial to note any history of cardiac illnesses and assess risk factors, including age, gender, smoking, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and a sedentary lifestyle.During physical examination, vital...

Panic Disorder01:27

Panic Disorder

1.2K
Panic disorder is an anxiety disorder characterized by recurrent and sudden minutes-long episodes of intense fear, known as panic attacks. These attacks may feel like heart attacks and often happen without warning or a specific cause. They can include symptoms such as rapid heart rate, shortness of breath, chest pain, trembling, sweating, dizziness, and a sense of helplessness. During a panic attack, individuals may feel as though they are experiencing a heart attack or are in a...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Susac syndrome is a rare condition causing blockages in small arteries, affecting the ears, eyes, and brain in young women. While often self-limiting, it can lead to significant neurological and sensory deficits.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Ophthalmology
  • Otolaryngology

Background:

  • Susac syndrome is a rare, presumed autoimmune arteriolar disease.
  • It primarily affects young women, causing occlusive events in the cochlea, retina, and brain.

Observation:

  • Clinical presentation includes hearing loss, visual disturbances, and neurological symptoms.
  • Audiometry reveals bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, predominantly in low frequencies.
  • Ophthalmic examination and angiography show retinal artery occlusions.
  • Brain MRI identifies multifocal white and gray matter hyperintensities.

Findings:

  • The condition is characterized by microinfarcts in specific organs.
  • Diagnosis relies on a combination of clinical findings and ancillary investigations.
  • The exact etiology remains unknown, but an autoimmune basis is suspected.

Implications:

  • Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial to minimize long-term sequelae.
  • Treatment strategies are varied, including antithrombotic and immunomodulatory therapies.
  • While often self-limiting, potential long-term effects include dementia, blindness, and deafness, though many patients recover fully.
