What hormones does the hypothalamus produce?
|
Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH)

|
How does the posterior pituitary gland work? What hormnes does it release?
|

|
Hormones of anterior pituitary
|
Growth hormone
Thyroid stimulating hormone FSH and LH Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) |
|
Where is somatostatin released from and what does it do?
|
Anterior pituitary
Inhibits GH and TSH from Ant pituitary gland |
|
Hormones of the adrenal cortex. How are they stimulated?
|
Mineral corticoids (aldosterone)
Glucocorticoids (Cortisol) Androgens (DHEA) Stimulated by ACTH from anterior pituitary |
|
Function of aldosterone (mineralcorticoid)
|
Released from adrenal cortex
Cause kidney to reabsorb Na+ and thus water to increase BP |
|
Function of vasopressin (ADH)
|
Released from pos pituitary
Reabsorb water from kidneys |
|
Hormones of the thyroid gland
|
Triiodthyronine (T3)
Thryroxine (T4) Calcitonin |
|
Hormones of the pancreas
|
Insulin
Glucagon Somatostatin |
|
Function of somatostatin in pancreas
|
Acts locally to depress secretion of both insulin and glycogen
Decreases motility and absorption of GI |
|
What are type I diabetics especially prone to?
|
Ketoacidosis
Ketones are by products of fat metabolism |
|
What is Metabolic Syndrome and what are the risk factors assocaited
|
Heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes

|
Diagnosis for DM
|
>200 mg/dL "casual" test
100-126 fasting = pre-DM >126 = DM |
|

RT: one set, 10-20 reps, at least 2x/week |
|
When should pt eat prior to exercising?
|
within 2 hours of eating
Don't ex if they haven't eaten in last 2 hours |
|
Ex and DM with:
CV disease Retinopathy Nueropathy Autonomic neuropathy Nephropathy |
CV dx: use RPE
Retinopathy: avoid activites that inc BP >170, no pounding or jarring Neuropathy: limit WB ex due to balance isues Autonomic: monitor for s/s of silent ischemia due to pt's inability to perceive angina Nephropathy: low to mod intensities |
|

|
symptoms of hypothyroidism?
|
Weight gain
Mental/physical lethargy Low BP Goiter Myxedema: swlling of hands, feet, face that can lead to coma and death |
|
Ex considerations for hypothyroidism
|
Ex intolerance

|
Disease of hyperthroidism
s/s |
Grave's
nervousness, hyperreflexia, tremor, hunger, weight loss, fatigue, palpiatations, tachycardia Antithryoid durgs or radioactive iodine |
|
ex considerations for Grave's
|
