3 Hypoglycaemia Clinical Tachycardia Sweating Lethargy Confusion Dizziness Seizures Athetosis Neuro. deficits Coma Death Biochemical Confirmation Blood / plasma glucose By Lab or H stix
4 Hypoglycaemia: causes I. Underproduction of glucose A. Hormone deficiencies - hypopituitarism - adrenal insufficiency - catecholamine deficiency - Glucagon deficiency B. Enzyme defects - Glucose-6-phosphatase - Liver phosphorylase - Pyruvate carboxylase - Phosphoenolpyruvate decarboxykinase - Fructose-1,6-diphosphatase - Glycogen synthase C. Substrate deficiency - Ketotic hypoglycaemia of infancy - Severe malnutrition, muscle wasting - Late pregnancy D. Acquired liver disease - Severe hepatitis - Cirrhosis E. Drugs - Alcohol - Propoanololo - Salicylates II. Overutilisation of glucose A. Hyperinsulinism - Insulinoma - Exogenous insulin - Sulphonylureas - Drugs: quinine, disopyramide - Endotoxic shock B. Appropriate insulin levels - Extrapancreatic tumours - Systemic carnitine deficiency - Beta oxidation defects -
