We experienced a case of severe convulsion induced by hypophosphatemia and hypomagnesemia. We should consider hypophosphatemia and hypomagnesemia as risk factors of convulsion in patients with long-term central intravenous nutrition.
Transient loss of consciousness (TLOC) is a common presentation in the emergency room, where patient history can usually differentiate syncope from generalized tonic-clonic (GTC) seizures. Several serum markers, such as creatine kinase and lactate, can be helpful, especially when Hypophosphatemia was recently reported as a potential marker of tonic-clonic (TC) seizures among patients with transitory loss of consciousness (TLOC). Its value compared to classical markers (creatine kinase [CK] and lactate) is however unknown.Compare the We report an unusual case of hypophosphatemia-related seizure in a child with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). A 1-year-old type 1 diabetic boy with hyperglycemia, ketoacidosis, and dehydration was admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit. After having received fluid replacement using isotonic
Central pontine myelinolysis (CPM), which was originally considered to be the result of rapid correction of chronic hyponatremia, is not necessarily accompanied by hyponatremia or drastic changes in serum sodium level. Here, we report a case of an anorexic 55-year-old male with a history of
Previous reports have described a syndrome of paresthesias, weakness, seizures and hypophosphatemia in patients and animals receiving intravenous hyperalimentation. In this report we describe a group of five patients who developed this syndrome while on oral caloric intake and three patients who
This article identifies the prevalence and associated factors of hypophosphatemia (HP) in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants in the first week of life. Prospective exploratory cohort study of 106 consecutive VLBW infants admitted to neonatal intensive Legionnaire's disease (LD) is a non-zoonotic atypical community acquired pneumonia (CAP) with several characteristic extra-pulmonary findings. Pending diagnostic test results, selected characteristic findings when considered together are the basis of clinical syndromic diagnosis and the basis of
Phosphate is essential in regulating human metabolic processes, and severe hypophosphatemia can induce neurologic and hematological complications and result in respiratory failure and cardiac dysfunction. Therefore, correction of severe hypophosphatemia can be pivotal in the management of diabetic
Rhabdomyolysis occurring as a complication of hypophosphatemia has been infrequently described. A 58-year-old male with a history of daily alcohol consumption presented with two generalized tonic clonic seizures secondary to hypovolemic hyponatremia. He was volume-resuscitated, and antiepileptic
Severe hypophosphatemia (i.e., serum phosphorus concentration below 1 mg/dl) occurs infrequently in veterinary patients. It is most often associated with diabetic ketoacidosis in small animals. Phosphate is necessary for the production of 2,3 diphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG) and adenosine triphosphate
Clinical observations suggest that overt rhabdomyolysis may occur if severe hypophosphatemia is superimposed upon a pre-existing subclinical myopathy. To examine this possibility, a subclinical muscle cell injury was induced in 23 dogs by feeding them a phosphorus- and calorie-deficient diet until
Although hypophosphatemia is relatively uncommon, it may be seen in anywhere from 20% to 80% of patients who present to the ED with alcoholic emergencies, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), and sepsis. Severe hypophosphatemia, as defined by a serum level below 1.0 mg/dL, may cause acute respiratory
