Hypocalcemia-induced reversible hemodynamic dysfunction

Hypocalcemia-induced reversible hemodynamic dysfunction

A series of three cases of 'hypocalcemic dysfunction' that reflects a range of clinical profiles from a purely calcium responsive peripheral collapse to paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea and orthopnea is reported. The underlying diversity of clinical presentation is noteworthy, as is its prompt...

Description
Summary:A series of three cases of 'hypocalcemic dysfunction' that reflects a range of clinical profiles from a purely calcium responsive peripheral collapse to paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea and orthopnea is reported. The underlying diversity of clinical presentation is noteworthy, as is its prompt response to calcium therapy.
