No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Previous study showed that afternoon cosyntropin testing was associated with a sevenfold increased likelihood of failing the 1μg test. However, in that study, investigators used a 20.3 cm plastic tube, which might have led to uncompleted cosyntropin delivery. In ther current study investigators will study afternoon 1μg cosyntropin cortisol stimulation using a short 2.5 cm tube.

low-dose cosyntropin stimulation test

Each subject recruited in the study will undergo low dose cosyntropin stimulation test via intravenous short 2.5 cm plastic tube. 1 μg/ml ACTH aliquot stock solution will be pushed through, followed by 5 ml physiologic saline (0.9%). For each subject, serum and salivary cortisol will be measured just before cosyntropin administration and 30 minutes later.
