Which of the following is NOT a principal action of thyroid
hormones?
a. Stimulation of energy use by increasing basal metabolism rate
b. Delivers oxygen to peripheral tissues
c. Stimulate the heart and increase heart rate and force of contraction
d. Promotion of growth and development
B
,Which of the following is the correct order steps for thyroid hormone
regulation?
a. The TRH is released from the hypothalamus and stimulates the
release of T3 and T4 from the anterior pituitary, which stimulates
TSH from the thyroid to produce biologic effects
b. TSH is released from the hypothalamus and stimulates the release
of TRH from the anterior pituitary which stimulates T3 and T4 from
the thyroid to produce biologic effects
c. TRH is released from the hypothalamus and stimulates the release
of TSH from the anterior pituitary, which stimulates T3 and T4 from
the thyroid to produce biologic effects
d. T3 and T4 are released from the hypothalamus to stimulate the
release of TRH from the anterior pituitary, which stimulates TSH
from the thyroid to produce biologic effects
C (TRH from hypothalamus. TSH from anterior pituitary. T3 & T4
from thyroid inhibit TSH from anterior pituitary)
,To test for a thyroid disorder, which of the following tests would
MOST likely be ordered?
a. Serum T3
b. Serum T4
c. TSH
d. Creatinine
C
, A TSH test is ordered on your patient to screen for hyperthyroidism.
Which of the following results would you anticipate if the patient did
have this condition?
a. High TSH levels
b. Low TSH levels
c. Normal TSH levels
d. High TRH levels
B (Low TSH levels=hyperthyroidism, High=hypothyroidism)
