question and answer
THESE ARE THE QUESTIONS ASKED IN OUR 1ST MEDICINE INTERNAL TEST.
Q.1 - Classify aneamia. megaloblastic anemia. {long question}
Q.2 - Metabolic syndrome
Q.3- Type 1 diabestese mellitus.
answer:-
1) def:- aneamia is defined as decrease in oxygen carrying capacity of blood , decrease number of red cell ,which varies according to age sex and altitude.
classification:-
aneamia is classified on the basis of reticulocyte index
1> reticulocyte index <2.5 {hypo proliferative aneamia}
a> normocytic
iron deficiency aneamia
marrow supression
aplastic aneamia
b> microcytic
iron deficiency aneamia
thallasemia
sideroblastic aneamia
2> reticulocyte index >2.5 {hyperproliferative aneamia}
macrocytic:-
megaloblastic aneamia
blood loss
MEGALOBLASTIC ANEAMIA
aetiology:-
bmi - >30
blood pressur ->140/90
cholestrol- elevated
hdl- decreased
ldl- elevated
treatment
ace inhibitors and thiazide diuretics are given
3) type 1 diabetese mellitus..
defn:- it is a group of metabolic disorder sharing the phenotype of hyperglyceamia due to partial or complete
lack of insulin.{earlier it was called insulin dependant diabetese mellitus IDDM }
Aetiology:- autoimmune
genetic:- mody 1 ,2,3.4.5
endocrinopathies:- acromegaly, cushing syndrome ,
infection:- congenital rubella syndrome
tumour:- gulacagonoma ,
*autoantibody to glyceamic acid decarboxylase (gad) is found
pathogenesis:-
autoimmune mediated beta cell destruction
insulinitis:- t cell mediated destruction
infiltration of lymphocyte
fibrous change
genetic:- involvement of HLA-DR6 , CTLA - 4, on chromosome 6
honeymoon phase:- this is the phase gyceamic control is attained with little or no insulin.
symptom less period..due to compensation by remaining beta cell
impaired glucose tolerance is seen
investigation:-
fpg->126 mg/dl
pp> 200 mg/dl
presence of c peptide
glucose tolerance test
glycosylated hb:- helpful in prognosis of diabetese mellitus
insulin infusion
0.5-1 U/Kg.......50% must be given as basal dose
various regimes are there:-
continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion
types :-
regular , lispro, aspart
complication:-
diabetic ketoacidosis:- due to lack of insulin
orthopaedics viva
I am going to write about my ortho viva..it was very interesting one..
so questions were ranging from peripheral nerve injury to fracture dislocation and pathology of bone and joints.
WHILE answering any question REGARDING MANAGEMENT one should be very particular in mentioning
INVESTIGATIONS first and then TREATMENT..{examiners look for it}
injury at the origin of radial nerve will paralyse all the muscles
injury at the level of radial groove{Saturday night palsy} ,triceps muscle escapes..
radial nerve causes extension so injury to it causes wrist drop{ unable to extend at the level of wrist}
interossei are also supplied by ulnar nerve so it escapes..
brachioradialis is supplied by the nerve before it divides into superficial and deep branches so testing the muscle will tell the level of injury..
injury to posterior interosseous branch cause wrist drop.. but extensor carpi radialis longus may escape
genu-knee , coxa -hip , cubitus -elbow
so genu valgum and genu varum are the angular deformity..to know the severity we can measure inter malleolar and inter condylar distance. Q angle is also diagnostic.
