25
acute pancreatitis - what may result
septicemia
26
acute pancreatitis dx tests include | 4
1. serum amylase levels 2. serum lipid levels 3. hypocalcemia 4. leukocytosis
27
colorectal cancer polyps | 2
1. colorectal polyps | 2. neoplastic polyps
28
acute pancreatitis sx include | 5
1. severe epigastric pain 2. severe abdominal pain radiating to the back 3. low grade fever 4. abdominal distention 5. decreased bowel sounds
29
septicemia is to which pancreatitis
acute
30
colorectal cancer tumor tissue markers include | 2
1. K-RAS | 2. BRAF
31
K-RAS is to
tumor marker - tumor tissue for colorectal cancer
32
carcinoembryonic antigen CEA is to
tumor marker in blood for colorectal cancer
33
acute pancreatitis
chemical peritonitis results in bacterial peritonitis
34
colorectal cancer tumor markers include (main categories)
1. blood | 2. tumor tissue
35
pancreatitis may progress to
surrounding tissue/organ
36
pancreatitis obstruction
obstruction to the outflow of pancreatic digestive enzymes caused by bile and pancreatic duct obstruction
37
acute pancreatitis dx test - serum amylase levels
first rise, then fall after 48 hours
38
inflammation resulting in autodigestion of the tissue
pancreatitis
39
chemical peritonitis results in bacterial peritonitis
acute pancreatitis
40
colorectal cancer screening test - visual based | 2
1. CT scan | 2. colonoscopy
41
chronic pancreatitis is the process of
progressive fibrotic destruction of the pancreas
42
severe epigastric or abdominal pain radiating to the back
primary sx of acute pancreatitis
43
acute pancreatitis serum lipid levels are
elevated
44
process of progressive fibrotic destruction of the pancreas
chronic pancreatitis
45
CA 19-9 is to
tumor marker in blood for colorectal cancer
46
acute pancreatitis dx test of choice
serum amylase levels
47
colorectal cancer screening ages
1. 45 yrs - recommended | 2. 50 years - strong recommendation
48
which form of pancreatitis is considered a medical emergency
acute
49
colorectal cancer sx depend on | 3
location size shape
50
guaiac test is to
stool based test for colorectal cancer
51
colon and rectum cancer - most are
sporadic or associated with a family hx of colorectal cancer
52
colorectal cancer blood tumor markers | 2
1. carcinoembryonic antigen CEA | 2. CA 19-9
53
pancreatitis that is usually mild and resolves spontaneously
acute
54
acute pancreatitis cardinal manifestation is
epigastric or midabdominal constant pain
55
ARDS and acute renal failure are possible complications of
acute pancreatitis
56
acute pancreatitis - body temp may rise significantly when
infection develops
