Hyperthyroidism crisis

Hyperthyroidism does not heal for a long time, and a series of comorbidities can occur, such as hyperthyroid heart disease, hyperthyroid limb paralysis, hyperthyroid hypertension, hyperthyroid diabetes, hyperthyroid psychosis, etc. Those with severe illness can lead to hyperthyroid crisis, and emergency treatment is not urgent. Often life is at risk. Hyperthyroidism crisis is a severe deterioration of the condition of hyperthyroidism, leading to severe disturbances of systemic metabolism, severe functional disorders such as the cardiovascular system, digestive system, and nervous system, which are often life-threatening, such as untimely diagnosis and rescue measures, and extremely high mortality rates. Even if the diagnosis and treatment are timely, about 5 to 15% of patients are not immune.
