Understanding the differences between Addison’s and Cushing’s disease is essential for nursing students prepping for exams and the NCLEX.

This video compares adrenal insufficiency seen in Addison’s caused by decreased cortisol vs Cushing’s syndrome caused by cortisol excess. Key manifestations, lab abnormalities, diagnostic tests, and medical treatments for glucocorticoid or mineralocorticoid imbalances are covered. Identifying the proper nursing care for regulating electrolytes, fluids, and blood pressure stabilizes patients with adrenal dysfunction. Reviewing the major similarities and distinctions between Addison’s vs Cushing’s prepares students to effectively analyze these disorders for nursing school tests and the licensure exam.
