Medicine Key Points


                   Medicine Key Points




  • All patients presenting with new-onset oedema should have a urinalysis.
  • Hypothyroidism should be considered in the differential diagnosis of any patient pre- senting with fatigue.
  • FEVER AND SHORTNESS OF BREATH= Consider PNEUMONIA.
  • CHEST PAIN, SHORTNESS OF BREATH & PALE Consider ANEMIA, go with CBC.
  • ADPKD patients may present with loin pain or haematuria.
  • Rheumatoid arthritis tends to spare the distal interphalangeal joints. Anaemia and ESR correlate with disease activity. NSAIDs may adversely affect renal function.
  • Irritable Bowel Syndrome= Abdominal Pain+Bloating+Periods of frequent defaecation alternate with periods of relative constipation+ Stress(Headache+Menstrual irregularties)
  • Carcinoid Tumor: Diarrhea, Abdominal Cramps, Facial Flushing, someimes Asthmatic Wheeze.
  • Hypertension:
    • Pheochromocytoma: High BP with paroxysmal symptoms of sweating, palpitations and anxiety.
    • Coarctation of Aorta: High BP with radiofemoral delay.
    • Conn's Syndrome: High BP with low Serum potassium.
    • Glomerulonephritis: High BP with Hematuria & Proteinuria.
    • Renovascular Disease: High BP with moderately raised creatinine.
  • Retrosternal Pain & relation of pain to lying flat and bending with Normal ECG suggestive of GERD.
  •  if Calcium increases and phosphate decreses then think about PTH.

Universal fomula to calculate drops/min of any drug in M/B

Universal fomula to calculate drops/min of any drug in M/B

100*Dose*weight / amount of drug in M/B

Dose= mg/kg/hr or IU/kg/hr
Weight= kg
Amount of drug= mg or IU

Heparin:
 ampuole strength= 5000 IU/ml
Dose =IHD dose 60 IU/kg stat (not more than 4500 IU)
maintanance= 12-18 IU/kg/hr

Isoket:
Ampuole strenth= 10mg 
Dose = Antiischemic dose = 0.8-2 mg/hr
Antihypertensive dose= more than 2mg/hr

Dopamine: 
acts on alpha 1,2. Beta 1,2. Dopamine 1,2 receptors
Ampuole strength= 200mg
Dose:2-20 microgram/kg/min
Low dose =2-6mcg/kg/min acts only on dopamine receptors on kidneys
4-10mcg/kg/min acts on dopamine and beta receptors
>10-20mcg/kg/min acts on alpha beta n dopamine

Dobutamine:
Acts only on Beta 1,2 receptors
Ampuole strength= 250mg
Dose: same doses as that of dopamine

Norepinephrine:
Ampuole=4mg
Dose:
Acute hypotension and cardiac arrest=
 initial dose 8-12 mcg/min
Maintanance dose= 2-4 mcg/min
Septic shock:
0.01-3 mcg/kg/min

Phenylephrine:
Ampuole=10mg (1ml)
Dilute it in 20ml and make 500mcg/ml then dilute 1ml of this dilution in 10ml and make 50mcg/ml
Stat dose=150mcg
Infusion= 50mcg/min

Insulin:
DKA, HHS
initial 0.1U/kg stat IV
Maintanance: 0.1U/kg/hr

Indication of Bicarbonate Replacement

Indication of Bicarbonate Replacement:
  • Definite use: if pH <7.10/7.20
  • Renal Failure
  • Hyperkalemia
  • Acidosis in diarrhea
  • RTA
Bicarbonate Replacement Formula:

HCO3- to be given:Base Deficit✖️Weight/20

(Baseline HCO3-= 24mEq/L)

e.g. If,
  • Weight: 60kg
  • ABG results are:
    • pH= 7.20
    • PaCO2= 25 
    • HCO3=12 
    • PaO2= 89
HCO3- to be given= (24-12)✖️60/2
= 12✖️60/2
=720/2
=360 mEq/L
Bicarbonates are divided in 3 equal doses:
=360/3
=120mEq/L

Two doses are given with an interval of 12hours, third dose is missed, because it is compensated by body itself.

Insulin Calculation on Sliding Scale

Insulin Calculation on Sliding Scale:

Total Insulin=weight/2
e.g. Insulin=90/2
Insulin=45 units

2/3 Regular= 30 units
1/3 NPH=15 units

Regular Insulin will be given in three divided doses in TDS
30/3=10+10+10

NPH will be given in two divided doses in BD
15/2=8+8

This is fixed insulin for 150mg/dl BSL.
For every 50mg/dl rise in BSL we will add 2 units to regular Insulin.
