We report a 44-year-old Caucasian female who presented with hypoglycemia and hypotension. The patient had a basal cortisol of 1.6 ug/dl and a peak serum cortisol of 23.3 ug/dl after 250 ug of cosyntropin. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In these clinical settings, the patient presents with a persistent systemic inflammation state, a hyperdynamic cardiovascular response, and vasopressor dependent shock. [dx.doi.org]

Initial adrenal workups involve cortisol testing and ACTH stimulation. [arupconsult.com]

Dogs received each treatment once with a 2-week interval between treatments. Blood samples were assayed for cortisol, progesterone, 17-hydroxyprogesterone, androstenedione, and estradiol concentrations. [dx.doi.org]

Current treatments consist primarily of non-invasive treatment with intravenous fluids and caffeine therapy and invasive treatment by Epidural Blood Patch. Efficacy of Caffeine 300mg IV BID x 1d doses is approximately 70% (2). [druglib.com]

A cosyntropin adrenal stimulation test was administered to each patient and the response was correlated with the past transplant course and their subsequent prognosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In this latter setting, which is the par excellence model for ischemia/reperfusion, nonresponse to the CST is correlated with longer ischemia duration and poorer prognosis (28). [journals.lww.com]

These findings confirm that adrenal sensitivity to corticotropin (ACTH) is enhanced in MDD and suggest that this endocrine abnormality may be related pathophysiologically to the resistance of cortisol secretion to dexamethasone suppression. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

CONCLUSIONS: LD cosyntropin stimulation testing results should be interpreted cautiously when used alone to prevent unnecessary long-term treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
