Q

Generalized Systemic RED FLAGS!

Big picture, Key words, things that raise concern****

A
  • Insidious, NO known MOI
  • Sx’s out of proportion to injury
  • NO change in sx’s, despite position, rest, tx
  • NO pattern to sx’s; unable to reproduce sx’s
  • Sx’s persist beyond expected healing time
  • Recent OR Current fever, chills, night sweats, infx
  • Unexplained wt loss, pallor, nausea, dizzy, vom, B&B changes (constitutional sx’s→ involve lots of systems)

Hot Foot Syndrome ## Footnote **MOST COMMON IN CERVICAL Cx \*\*\***
114
Location of 9 **Endocrine Glands** ## Footnote **and more info on Endocrine system**
* \*Hair, skin, nails * Sets our “meter” * **Homeostasis regulation** **WATCH!!!**
115
Endocrine S/S

116
Vitamin Deficiencies ## Footnote **Sunshine Vitamin= Vitamin D**
* **Recommended exposure:** 10-15mins few times a week\*\*\* * **Food:** * 6.5lbs mushrooms * 150 egg yolks * 3.75 lbs salmon * 30 servings fortified cereal * \>2lbs sardines * 30 cups fortified OJ
117
Vitamin D Insuff. ## Footnote **Factors:**
* How MUCH skin exposed * UV index: * \>/= 3 bw 10:30-12:00 req's 50-75% of skin exposed * \<3 means INCd risk of UVA rays w/out benefit of UVB * Early morning & evening sunlight provides only UVA rays while mid-day has UVB * Darker skin req's INCd exposure
118
Vitamin D Insuff. ## Footnote **Clarifying Info:**
* When exposed to sunlight, you produce a **mechanism to repair DNA which LOWERS risk of Cx** * **It is the _sunburning_ that is the culprit for causing skin Cx** **\*NOTE:** Vitamin D and Ca++ are **“threshold nutrients” i.e.** Deficiencies are bad, BUT **once you reach adequate amt, higher doses are NOT beneficial**
119
Vitamin D. Insuff. ## Footnote **MORE**
* LOW **serum lvls of Vitamin D** are associated w/ **clinically sig. sx's of _Depression_** * Ex. Healthy women followed x1mo * \>⅓ had depressive sx's * ~½ had vitamin D insuff. * **Depressive sx's were predicted by vitamin D lvls**
120
Trinity College in Dublin
**LOWER lvl of Vitamin D, the HIGHER # of COVID-19 infx's & the GREATER mortality \*\*\***
121
Adding 4000 IU of Vitamin D to anagesic regimens in pts w/ MSK pain
Adding 4000 IU of Vit. D may lead to **faster decline of consecutive VAS scores & a DEC in lvls of inflammatory & pain related cytokines**
122
Vit. D Supplementation ## Footnote **Breakdown**
1. ~10% of our Vit. D comes from food 2. Body only makes Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) 3. Abate **jt pain, mm cramps, illness, fatigue** 4. Enhance **bone health**
