 DEFINISION
 Etiology
 Symptoms
 Risk factors
 Physical examination and investigation
 Treatment and education
 COMPLICATION
Hyperthyroidism is a condition
caused by a clinic excessive
secretion of thyroid hormones are
thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine
(T3). Also found an increase in the
production of triiodothyronine (T3)
as a result of increasing the
conversion of thyroxine (T4) in the
peripheral tissues.
.
The disease is a form of hyperthyroidism
tiroktoksikosis most often encountered in
daily practice . Can occur at any age , often
found in women than men .
Hyperthyroid disease pathogenesis has so far
not known
The mechanism of autoimmunity is an
important factor in the pathogenesis of

moist skin , weight loss despite increased
appetite , palpitations , tachycardia , diarrhea
and weakness and muscle atrophy .
•Occurs more in women than in men
•At the age of 50 years
•Post traumatic emotional
•Increased stress

hyperthyroidism is not only assess the thyroid gland
Physical examination may begin with examination on
the head and neck . examination begins with an
inspection of the thyroid gland in the neck front and
side with the patient sitting . Every scar , mass , and
distended veins that look to be recorded . After that ,
palpation of the gland tirod by asking the patient to flex
the muscles in the neck so that the neck rather slack
palpable thyroid gland of the patient and the presence
of the patient
 Investigation : Although the measurement of blood TSH
levels are best screening tool in assessing thyroid
function , but the severity of hyperthyroidism less can
be judged by the examination
 . 1. conservative : pharmacotherapy
a) Anti-thyroid: to inhibit the formation of
thyroid hormones.
Drugs Examples: Propiltiurazil (PTU),
methimazole (Tapazole)
Indications: In hyperthyroid disease.
 2. b. non-pharmacological : diet,not
comsume alcohol and ciggarettes
 3.Operative
 1. thyroid storm. Urgent situations
characterized high fever, rapid heart rate and
irregular (atrial fibrillation), unconscious until
death. This condition can occur as a result of
taking medications that are not disciplined.
 2. abnormality the eye in the form of dry
eyes, impaired vision, easy to infection,
wound up blind.
 3.Hipertensi, heart rhythm disorders to heart
failure.
 4.Osteoporosis

excessive secretion of clinical thyroid
hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine
(T3).
