Hypocalcemia is the occurs when serum calcium concentration is below the lower limit of normal range.
Acute hypocalcemia has neuromuscular tetany as hallmark symptom. Patients have rapid decrease in serum calcium and present with symptomatic hypocalcemia.
It is an emergency condition and requires immediate attention. Ca (IV) should be administered until signs and symptoms abate or until serum Ca levels rise.
Chronic hypocalcemia has asymptomatic mild hypocalcemia. Treatment is necessary to avoid long term complications. Oral Ca may be administered.
In this fourth issue,
join us as we discover the unique biology Asians have with respect to diabetes.
Take a closer look at trials evaluating whether empagliflozin’s cardiovascular
and renal benefits – as analysed in Asians – are consistent with the overall
trial population, and how it addresses unmet needs.
In this third issue we take
a look at how empagliflozin made a bold impact on clinical guidelines across
multiple specialties. We will explore how existing treatment recommendations
were altered, and summarise the current guidelines and future perspectives of
empagliflozin’s use.
