I learned a lot when you outlined the vasculature in the anterior pituitary and it's important role in pituitary function. Thanks for making my first online course a great interactive experience. I feel like I'm in class!
I'm a humble patient who's just been diagnosed with SIADH after 10 years of having low blood Sodium levels. My previous GP just told me to take a salt tablet on a hot day (I live in a hot country). My new GP has given me the tests, diagnosed me with this condition, told me to drink less fluids. That's it. So here I sit at home, thirsty, tired, wondering what to do next. How do I find simple information on how to manage this? I normally exercise morning or evening. But that makes me sweat. Do I replace fluids or not drink and become dehydrated? Completely confused...
Great Video, these videos are so helpful in understanding the Endocrine system, I am a visual learner. I agree with Rachael thank you for making this online class a great interactive experience!
I am under the impression that there is no edema due to SIADH because the excess fluid shifts from the extra cellular compartment into the intracellular compartment, resulting in no systemic edema, I.e. Pedal edema etc.
the increased volume is only temporarily as once this volume enters the atrium it will cause the release of ANP causing you to urinate the excess volume therefore becoming euvolemic once again.
How do you test for these? I've found vasopressin radioimmunoassay and the water deprivation test, but I don't know how these work or the expected results in each case.
So excuse me, I am uneducated, but could SIADH actually cause hyperhydrosis or even CSF leaks because your body is desperately trying to get ride of excess water but It is unable to through the urine?

Thanks for the question. We will ask Dr. Wolf and see what he says!

Thanks for the feedback! We will be rolling out new lessons soon. Keep watching, we appreciate the support!
Great video but one of the key differenciating features of SIADH vs. other causes of hyponatremia is lack of edema/fluid overload.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. The Health Ed Solutions team is happy you found the lesson helpful!
Exactly
ADH is made in the hypothalamus but it is secreted by the posterior pituitary gland.
Awesome! Thank you!
What program did you make this video with?
Thanks for your inquiry. The whiteboard lessons are created using a Wacom Bamboo tablet. Thanks for watching!
Hey there, in Kumar and clarke, it says that the patient doent get oedema as the patient is euvolaemic... who's right?? Thanks
Question: Why is it called Diabetes Insipidus? Am I correct in saying it has nothing to do with Diabetes Mellitus? Thanks great videos!!

Thank you! Laid I out perfectly!
You’re welcome. Glad you found it helpful!
I have one confusion here...SIADH can cause oedema????
Peripheral oedema?it causes cerebral oedema in very late stage rt?but fact no.3 u told oedema.
Thanks for the question. We will ask Dr. Wolf and see what he says!
This is awesome. Thanks!!!
You're welcome and thanks for watching!
Thank you so much!

Please make a video on pychogenic polydipsia
What happens to potassium? Hypokalemia?
Thanks for the question. We will ask Dr. Wolf and see what he says!
