Great video. Very clearly presented and informative. Just one point to consider regarding the sodium concentration in secondary hyperaldosteronism. Due to congestive heart failure (one of the common causes of secondary hyperaldosteronism), patients often become sodium and water overloaded due to increased renin and thus aldosterone release. The increased renin occurs becuase of reduced effective intravascular volume which is sensed in the kidney as you clearly outline. The reabsorption of sodium and thus water leads to hypervolaemia which we see clinically by a raised JVP and peripheral oedema in some patients. However, angiotensin II also stimulates ADH secretion from the posterior pituitary gland as well as renin secretion from the kidney. ADH acts differently to aldosterone and results in water (but not sodium) reabsorption in the collecting duct. Therefore, although patients with heart failure for example are often sodium overloaded (due to the effect of hyperaldosteronism), the disproportionately greater reabsorption of water means that the patient actually can have low sodium concentration in the extracellular fluid (hyponatremia) due to the dilution effect of increased water intake.
Laid in the hospital after successful surgery. Less than 24 hours since the tumour and gland removed and already there has been significant improvement.

I have conn's. Clean diet but spironolactone retains the potassium loss. This or eplerenone is the drug of choice. Alongside controlled bloodwork to monitor potassium levels and kidney function. I nearly died from the potassium loss. I'm lucky.
I have high Aldosterone (2x-3x normal max value) and severe hypertension BUT normal renin, normal Na+ and normal K+ and no protein in my urine, no cerosis, no adrenal tumors. I've gone to many doctors and they are clueless..:/ would appreciate any ideas as to what I might have.
I know it's been a couple years, but I have the same issues. I've now been on Spiro and clonidine patches for a long while and my BP is under control. How are you doing?
Hi. Can you explain what happens to the levels of angiotensin 1 and 2 in conns syndrome? Renin is obviously low due to primary hyperaldosteronism. Thanks

You must be a genius. Very clear explanation. Thanks
Wow, you explained it so concisely-yet so simply as well. Thank you
Fezile Gabellah, How are you doing ? We hope you succeeded very well.
Good vid1
One correction:
s-Na+ will be normal as the Na+ reabsorption will be neutralized by the concomittant H20 reabsorption.
no one can make it any more easy, thank you :)

Really helps to understand. Thanks.
Short and simple bro ✌️

Great lecture!
thank you so much .very helpful
THANKS!
Great lecture thanks ! :)
very very thxu i understand your lecture ...........god bless you....
Thanks, very good explanation and simple, dude!
in primary hyperaldosterinoism the Na will be normal dt Aldosterone escape metabolism.
Thank you so much
Great video, what diet is recommended for patients. I would imagine, DASH diet, low sodium, high potassium. What about water intake. 😊😊😊
I have conn's. Clean diet but spironolactone retains the potassium loss. This or eplerenone is the drug of choice. Alongside controlled bloodwork to monitor potassium levels and kidney function. I nearly died from the potassium loss. I'm lucky.
Thank you 🙏🏽

Maria C check medications! These may be a contributing cause?!
How you doing right now
I know it's been a couple years, but I have the same issues. I've now been on Spiro and clonidine patches for a long while and my BP is under control. How are you doing?
excellent

How can I get your rest videos plzzzzzz???????
God bless you
nice one
what abt mineralocorticoid escape phenomenon?
It Is better than CTO
what does escape phenomenon mean???
Tq
superbbbbbbbbb sir...
How can I get your rest visions plz........?????????????????
No one
