Across
  1. 4. patients with this endocrine disorder typically present with weight gain, cold intolerance, and decreased metabolic function.
  2. 5. patients with too much ADH may develop this disease process.
  3. 11. this hormone is responsible for hormone that helps the body regulate water and salt levels, blood pressure, and kidney function by resorption of water in the kidneys.
  4. 12. patients with diabetes insipidus will have decreased serum osmolarity that may result in this electrolyte imbalance.
  5. 15. patients with thyrotoxicosis will likely exhibit this as the first sign.
  6. 16. clients with DKA will present with this type of respirations due to metabolic acidosis.
  7. 17. the impaired sensation caused by ischemia in microcirculation to peripheral nerves in diabetic clients is called:
  8. 18. term used to describe increased levels of glucose in the blood.
  9. 22. patients with Cushing's disease may present with striae, acne, moon face and __________________.
  10. 24. High blood glucose levels cause the kidneys to work harder to filter and remove the excess glucose through urine. This leads to frequent urination and dehydration, which triggers the body's thirst response resulting in this manifestation.
  11. 25. this endocrine disorder typically presents with hyperthyroidism, goiter, and exophthalmos.
  12. 26. leading cause of blindness in clients with diabetes
  13. 27. a condition that occurs in diabetes when the body produces too much urine due to high levels of glucose in the blood, results in excessive amounts of urine.
  14. 29. patients who require long-term steroid use are at risk for this endocrine disease.
  15. 31. clients with diabetes will typically have _________ in the urine due to damage of vessels and nephrons in the kidneys.
  16. 32. this manifestation is seen with diabetes due to the misuse of glucose by the body; cells “starving” for glucose to use for energy triggers this manifestation.
  17. 34. clients with DKA will be positive for this diagnostic in urine and blood.
  18. 35. red blood cells and this organ are dependent on glucose for energy in order to function properly.
Down
  1. 1. complications of diabetes are preventable if the client maintains this.
  2. 2. this assessment finding may be seen in patients with hypoparathyroidism, it is elicited by tapping over the facial nerve.
  3. 3. patients with abnormally high levels of this hormone may develop acromegaly.
  4. 6. the most common cause of pituitary disorders
  5. 7. cells that are defective in Type 1 diabetes
  6. 8. patients who abruptly stop taking medications such as Hydrocortisone are at risk for developing this medical emergency.
  7. 9. tachycardia, diaphoresis, cool skin, anxiety, and tremors are manifestations of this disease process.
  8. 10. insulin, glycogen and somatostatin are hormones associated with this endocrine
  9. 13. this type of insulin is the only type of insulin that is able to be administered via IV route.
  10. 14. for clients with hormone deficiencies, treatment typically includes lifelong _________________________________
  11. 19. a major contributor to foot ulcers in diabetic clients; causes decreased blood flow and increased risks of ischemia.
  12. 20. degeneration of __________________ of the kidney results in chronic kidney failure in clients with diabetes
  13. 21. patients with insufficient amounts of any hormone will require hormone replacement for this duration of time
  14. 23. pheochromocytomas are catecholamine secreting tumors of the adrenal ___________
  15. 28. type 1 diabetics will require lifelong replacement of this.
  16. 29. parathyroid hormone, or PTH, controls this electrolyte.
  17. 30. severe hypoglycemia may result in loss of consciousness, _______________, & even death due to the brain’s dependency on glucose for energy to function
  18. 33. excessive amounts of growth hormone lead to this disease process which results in growth of soft tissues and bones.
