Q

Def of Tetany

Study These Flashcards

A

State of hyperexcitability of the neuromuscular system due to decreased ionized calcium in the blood

Q

Types of Tetany

Study These Flashcards

A

Relation between pH & Tetany

CP of **Tetany**

CP of **Latent Tetany**

CP of **Latent Tetany** - Chovstek sign

Tapping of facial nerve in front of the ear lead to spasm of facial muscles of same side

CP of **Latent Tetany** - Trousseau Sign

- Compress upper arm with sphygmomanometer cuff with sphygmomanometer cuff with pressure between systolic and diastolic lead to carpal spasm

CP of **Latent Tetany** - Erb's Sign

Low galvanic current (<5mAm) lead to muscle contraction

CP of **Latent Tetany** - Peroneal Sign

Tap peroneal nerve near head of fibula lead to pedal spasm

CP of **Manifest Tetany**

CP of **Manifest Tetany** - Carpal Spasm

CP of **Manifest Tetany** - Pedal Spasm

Foot extended in position of talipes equinus position with flexion of toes

CP of **Manifest Tetany** - Laryngeal Spasm

Attacks of spasmodic closure of the larynx (stridor)

CP of **Manifest Tetany** - Convulsions

With loss of consciousness
