Gonna cover a cardio ward this week and was struggling with rate/rhythm control agents. This vid came in just in time n clarified my doubts. Thank you sir you're such a blessing
Hey medicosis today was my urology exam and there was a question I didn't know the answer Why alkalosis cause tetany ? I know it's something about calicum level but I don't understand what it is exactly can you explain it to me please
High pH makes the albumin more anionic which will bind calcium strongly thus there wont be free calcium available. That causes Tetany. Medicosis should correct me if Im wrong :)
@@Zainab-nt4jr you know calcium is highly competitive. So when its around, it doesnt let other cations bind on receptors thus it kinda inhibits excessive firing of neurons. But when its not around, god dammit. Then sodium takes over and it fires!
