Recommends initiating fludrocortisone 50–100 µg daily for mineralocorticoid replacement in adults with confirmed aldosterone deficiency (e.g., low aldosterone, elevated renin) and no salt restriction. Use when aldosterone deficiency is confirmed in a patient…
Langue du texte source : anglais
Determines follow‑up interval for patients with primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI) based on age: annual visits for adults and children, and every 3–4 months for infants. Triggered when establishing routine endocrine care after PAI diagnosis or during stable…
Langue du texte source : anglais
Suggests genetic counseling for patients with primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI) when a monogenic disorder is suspected. Use when PAI patient presents with early-onset disease, syndromic features, consanguinity, family history, or negative autoimmune…
Langue du texte source : anglais
Recommends equipping every patient with primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI) with a glucocorticoid injection kit for emergency self‑administration and providing training on its use. Trigger when preparing a PAI patient for stress dosing, adrenal crisis…
Langue du texte source : anglais
Recommends initiating glucocorticoid therapy in all patients with confirmed primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI). Use when PAI diagnosis is confirmed by subnormal cortisol response to ACTH stimulation test or elevated ACTH with low cortisol.
