Hypothyroidism is a disorder that occurs when the thyroid gland does not make enough thyroid hormone to meet the body’s needs.
Hyperthyroidism is a disorder that occurs when the thyroid gland makes more thyroid hormone than the body needs.
The document discusses thyroid disorders like hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism. It describes the thyroid gland and explains that hyperthyroidism is caused by an overactive thyroid while hypothyroidism is caused by an underactive thyroid. It provides information on symptoms, causes, tests used for diagnosis, treatment options like medication and diet changes, and home remedies for hypothyroidism.
The thyroid gland secretes hormones that influence metabolism, body temperature, growth, and brain development. Hyperthyroidism occurs when too much thyroid hormone is secreted, leading to increased heart rate and appetite with potential heart problems. Hypothyroidism is caused by not enough thyroid hormone, resulting in tiredness, weight gain, and raised cholesterol. Exercise can help control thyroid hormone levels and decrease health risks like cardiovascular disease and joint pain.
Thyroid disorders result from issues with thyroid hormone production or secretion, altering metabolism. Hyperthyroidism occurs when excessive thyroid hormones are produced, often due to Graves' disease, an autoimmune disorder. Hypothyroidism results from decreased thyroid hormone production, commonly caused by Hashimoto's thyroiditis or thyroid surgery/radiation treatment. Both conditions are managed through pharmacological interventions like antithyroid drugs or levothyroxine replacement therapy.
Hypothyroidism, also known as cretinism and myxedema, is a condition where the thyroid gland does not produce enough hormones to meet the body's demands. The thyroid gland, located in the lower front of the neck, normally produces thyroid hormones which help control metabolism and organ functions. Hypothyroidism can be caused by autoimmune disease, radioactive iodine treatment, iodine deficiency, thyroid surgery or damage, or pituitary issues. Left untreated, it can lead to fatigue, weight gain, dry skin, constipation, cognitive changes, breathing problems, and even coma. Treatment involves lifelong thyroid hormone replacement therapy to manage symptoms and prevent complications.
The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of your neck just below the Adam’s apple.
Several different disorders can arise when your thyroid produces too much hormone (hyperthyroidism) or not enough (hypothyroidism).
Four common disorders of the thyroid are Hashimoto’s disease, Graves’ disease, goiter, and thyroid nodules.

The document discusses thyroid hormone disorders. It begins by describing the thyroid gland and its hormones. The thyroid regulates metabolism through thyroid stimulating hormone and secretes thyroid hormones T3 and T4. Hypothyroidism occurs when thyroid hormone production is inadequate, while hyperthyroidism is excessive thyroid hormone release. Common causes of hypothyroidism include Hashimoto's thyroiditis and thyroid removal. Graves' disease and toxic adenomas are common causes of hyperthyroidism. Laboratory tests can distinguish between hypo- and hyperthyroid states based on TSH, T3 and T4 levels.
This document discusses the diagnosis and management of primary hypothyroidism in a 32-year-old woman. She was found to have a very high TSH level of over 100 IU/ml and a low free T4, consistent with overt primary hypothyroidism. Further testing found she had a family history of hypothyroidism and goiter. She was diagnosed with postpartum thyroiditis, a common cause of transient hypothyroidism after delivery. Treatment involves thyroid hormone replacement with levothyroxine titrated based on follow-up TSH levels, with the goal of achieving a normal TSH level.
This document summarizes disorders of the thyroid gland, including hypo- and hyperthyroidism. It first provides background on the thyroid gland and its functions. It then discusses hyperthyroidism, its causes such as Graves' disease, clinical features like palpitations and weight loss, diagnosis via thyroid function tests, and management including antithyroid medications and radioactive iodine therapy. It also lists nursing interventions like monitoring vital signs and diet. Next, it covers hypothyroidism, its causes like Hashimoto's disease, clinical features including fatigue and weight gain, diagnosis and treatment with levothyroxine replacement therapy, and nursing care like assessing for constipation.
Graves' disease is an autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks the thyroid gland, causing it to produce too much thyroxine. Some common symptoms include anxiety, eye irritation, increased sweating, and weight loss. The disease is triggered by antibodies that stimulate thyroid cells to overproduce hormones. Treatments include antithyroid medications, radioactive iodine, or surgery to destroy the thyroid gland, followed by thyroid hormone replacement medication. Eye problems related to Graves' disease may also require additional treatments.
Graves disease is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system attacks the thyroid gland, causing it to overproduce thyroid hormones. This leads to an enlarged thyroid and hyperthyroidism. Symptoms include bulging eyes, increased appetite with weight loss, heat intolerance, and hyperactivity. The condition is caused by antibodies that mimic TSH, stimulating excess thyroid hormone release. With treatment like antithyroid drugs, radioiodine therapy, or surgery, the prognosis is generally positive, but without treatment there are long term health risks.
The document discusses congenital hypothyroidism, which can be permanent or transient. It is detected through newborn screening by measuring TSH and T4 levels. If imaging shows thyroid abnormalities and TSH is elevated with low T4 and T3, it is considered permanent congenital hypothyroidism. Treatment involves thyroid hormone replacement typically for life. Transient hypothyroidism may normalize on its own. Factors like timing of screening, treatment, and monitoring are important for normal development outcomes in affected newborns.
This document discusses thyroid and parathyroid disorders. It covers hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, their causes, symptoms, and treatment options. Hyperthyroidism is often caused by Graves' disease and results in excess thyroid hormones. Hypothyroidism is often caused by Hashimoto's disease and results in reduced thyroid hormones. Hyperparathyroidism is caused by excess parathyroid hormone from tumors on the parathyroid glands, leading to high blood calcium. Hypoparathyroidism is caused by low parathyroid hormone, leading to low blood calcium. Both conditions are typically treated through diet, supplements, and surgery if needed.
Thyrotoxicosis is a clinical syndrome caused by high levels of circulating thyroid hormones, with primary causes including Graves' disease and toxic nodular goiter, leading to symptoms of weight loss, fatigue, heat intolerance, and emotional changes. Diagnosis is based on examination findings of a goiter, tachycardia, and eye changes like exophthalmos, with treatment options including antithyroid drugs, radioactive iodine, or surgery to remove the overactive thyroid tissue.
This document summarizes thyroid dysfunction and diseases. It discusses the basics of thyroid function including production of hormones, control by TSH, and effects of other hormones. It then covers thyroid function tests, diseases including hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism and thyroiditis, investigations, and management. Key points are TSH and free T4/T3 levels guide diagnosis and treatment with levothyroxine or anti-thyroid drugs depending on hypo- or hyperthyroidism. Thyroid cancer types and appropriate surgery or radioactive iodine treatment are also summarized.
Hyperthyroidism is a form of thyrotoxicosis caused by excess thyroid hormones secreted by an overactive thyroid gland. It can be caused by endogenous issues like Graves' disease or toxic multinodular goiter affecting the thyroid gland itself, or secondary/central hyperthyroidism where the pituitary gland is affected. Symptoms include increased metabolism, nervousness, appetite and heart rate. Treatment focuses on controlling thyroid hormone levels through anti-thyroid drugs, radioactive iodine therapy or surgery to the thyroid gland.
Serum T4 is low and TSH is increased, usually greater than 20ul/L, in primary hypothyroidism. ECG may show sinus bradycardia with low voltage complex and ST segment and T wave abnormalities in severe prolonged hypothyroidism. Measurement of thyroid peroxidase is helpful for diagnosing autoimmune thyroiditis. Non-specific findings can include raised serum enzymes, hypercholesterolemia, normochromic normocytic or macrocytic anemia, and hyponatremia.

Nursing management of the patient with Tonsillitis PPTblessyjannu21
Prepared by Prof. Blessy Thomas MSc Nursing, FNCON, SPN. The tonsils are two small glands that sit on either side of the throat.
In young children, they help to fight germs and act as a barrier against infection.
Tonsils act as filters, trapping germs that could otherwise enter the airways and cause infection.
They also make antibodies to fight infection.
But sometimes, they get overwhelmed by bacteria or viruses.
This can make them swollen and inflamed.
Tonsillitis is an infection of the tonsils, two masses of tissue at the back of the throat.
Tonsillitis is inflammation of the tonsils, two oval-shaped pads of tissue at the back of the throat — one tonsil on each side.
