Transitory neonatal disorder of calcium and magnesium metabolism, unspecified - what does this mean
Transitory neonatal disorder of calcium and magnesium metabolism, unspecified is a disorder that occurs in newborns due to an imbalance of calcium and magnesium in the body. this imbalance can be caused by a variety of factors such as maternal metabolic disturbances, inadequate intake of calcium and magnesium, or an immature renal system. this disorder is usually transient and resolves with time, but in some cases, it may require medical intervention.
What happens during the disease - transitory neonatal disorder of calcium and magnesium metabolism, unspecified
Transitory neonatal disorder of calcium and magnesium metabolism, unspecified is a condition in which there is an imbalance of calcium and magnesium in the body. this imbalance can be caused by a variety of factors, including an immature and/or abnormal digestive system, decreased absorption of calcium and magnesium in the intestines, and a decrease in the production of parathyroid hormone. this can lead to an increase in calcium and magnesium excretion in the urine, resulting in symptoms such as seizures, hypotonia, and poor feeding. treatment typically involves the administration of calcium and magnesium supplements to restore the balance.
