Palpation of thyroid glandPalpation of thyroid gland Position of patient is upright with relaxed neck muscles, the neck is
slightly bended forward.
Position of a doctor may be behind (I variant) or before the patient (II variant).
A doctor performs palpation with tip of his fingers. In I variant of palpation examiner puts four fingers of both hands (except of thumbs) in projection of left and right parts of cricoid process. In II variant the examiner puts thumbs of his fingers in the same points (see next pictures).
A patient is asked to swallow saliva (a gland goes up and becomes more accessible both a review and palpation).
During swallowing doctor’s fingers slide across thyroid gland lobes and the isthmus.
The following properties of the gland are to be assessed: location, pain, size, symmetry, consistency, structure (homogenous or with nodes).

Palpation may be performed, if a doctor
stands behind or before the patient, his arms are put at
the zone of projection of the gland

like”), rugged face features, enlargement of foots, speech is not clear, decreased hearing.

decreased memory and intellect, frequent headaches,
dizziness; sensitiveness to cold, parestesias, deranged

• Cardiovascular system – pain in heart region, dyspnea in physical load.
• Digestive system – constipation, decrease appetite, nausea
• Respiratory system – frequent bronchitis exacerbations, pneumonias (body temperature is normal).
• Urogenital system – decreased diuresis, pyelonephritis, decreased potention in males, menstrual-ovarial cycle disorders in females.

Objective examination
• Metabolism - hypothermia, overweight
Skin – dry, cold, yellow, it is nit possible to make skin fold, symptom of dirty elbows and колін; dryness and brittlessness of hair, psilosis, loosing of external parts od eyebroves; nails are sick, with streaks; face is pastous, enlarged lips and a tongue with teeth pattern, hoarse voice

Myxedematous edema (myxaedema)– accumulation of gucosaminoglacals (hialuronic and chondroitinsulfate acids), with accumulation of liquid and sodium in tissues (skin, subcutaneous fat, vocal slits, mucous memvranes.
Nervous system – disordered coordination, poor vision.
Digestive system –tonque enlqrgement with teeth patter on its sides, hepatomegaly, dyskinesia of bile dicts and intestine, ascites.

Cardiovascular system - bradicardia, extrasystoly
Apex beat is low, relative cardiac dullness borders are displaced, weak heart sounds, systolic murmur at the apex, signs of heart failure. BP low or normal.
Respiratory system – superficial breathing, pleuricy.
Thyroid gland – is of normal size or slightly enlarged,mild or of moderat density, painless.

Laboratory and instrumental diagnostics
• Blood – hyperlipoproteidemia, increased level of cholesterol and triglicerides. Anemia (normochromic, hypochromic iron-deffiicency or В12- iron-deffiicency)
Nervous system - Eectroencephalography: decreased amplitude of waves, narroving of vision fields, increased intraocular pressure.
Musculoskeletal system – osteoporosis, sinovial fluid.

Cardiovascular system - ECG: low voltage, sinus
bradicardia, disordered conduction ( P-Q
prolongation), extrasystoly.
Ultrasound of a heart – pericardial effusion, left
ventricular wall sickness.
Digestive system – achlorhydria and authimmune
gastritis.
Urogenital system - decreased diuresis, renal blood
flow and glomerular filtration, moderate proteinuria.

Dry hear
Falling of external eyebroves hair
Periorbital edema
Edematous face dry skin

Diagnostics
Changes of Т3, Т4, ТТH.
Subclinical hypothyreosis – increased TTH, normal Т4.
Primary hypothyreosis – increased TTH, decreased Т4.
Secondary hypothyreosis – decreased TTH, decreased Т4 thyroliberin test is negative
Tertiary hypothyreosis – decreased TTH, decreased Т4 thyroliberin test is positive

Treatment Ethiological treatment of the cause Pathogenetic thyroid hormones 1) poor Т4 (levothyroxin, L-thyroxin, euthirox) – for
prolonged замісної treatment;
2) poor Т3 (thriiodtironin) – is used for diagnostics;3) Combined preparations (tireocomb, tireotom, novotirol)
– is difficult to choose proper dosage.

Hypothyroid comaCauses : unproper treatment of hypothyreosisProvoking factors: overcooling, infections, physical trauna,
operations, myocardial infarction, stress, bleeding, usage of tranquillisers
Clinical manifestation: gradual beginning; affection of nervous system (weaklness, somnolence, inhivited conscioussness), hypothermia, cardiovascular disorders (marked bradicardia, weak heart sounds, hypotension), respiratoryt disorders (bradypnoe, hypercapnia), ishuria, dynamic intestinal obsruction.
- 3) lab tests: anemia, increasd ESR, low serum level of Т3 and Т4, hyperpotassiemia, acidosis, hypoxia.

Treatment
1. Corticosteroids – for prevention of adrenal insufficiency
(hydrocortison 100-150 mg or prednisolon 30-50 mg i/v.
2. 200 мcг of thyroxin, glucous 40% - 60 ml, ISS 500 мл, 5%
ascorbic acid 5 0 i/v.
3. Oxygen. Artificial lung ventilation.
4. In edema and high BP – diuretics (lasix 2 ml i/m), in hypotesion
- mesaton 1% - 0,5-1,0 ml i/v, corglivon 0,06% - 1,0.
5. Antibiotics.
