17 Μαΐ 2024 · This topic will focus on the treatment of hypernatremia induced by water loss, which is the most common cause. The treatment of hypernatremia in patients with impaired thirst, with or without arginine vasopressin disorders, and with primary sodium overload will also be reviewed.
In clinical practice, hypernatraemia (serum sodium higher than 145 mmol/L) is usually of multifactorial aetiology and drug therapy not infrequently is disregarded as a contributing factor for increased serum sodium concentration.
24 Αυγ 2023 · Hypernatremia is defined as a serum sodium concentration of greater than 145 meq/l. This activity reviews the causes and presentation and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in its management. Objectives: Review the causes of hypernatremia. Describe the evaluation of a patient with hypernatremia.
16 Ιουλ 2009 · Treatment of the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (SIADH) with furosemide or urea can also be complicated with hypernatraemia . A recent 1:2 matched case–control study included 130 cases of hypernatraemia developed in the intensive care unit (ICU) compared to 260 controls.
25 Οκτ 2023 · Treatment of hypernatraemia is directed at addressing the underlying cause, as well as replacing free water deficit and ongoing losses while monitoring serum sodium concentration. It is important not to correct the serum sodium concentration too rapidly in cases of chronic hypernatraemia.
The review presents the main pathogenetic mechanisms of hypernatremia, provides specific directions for the evaluation of patients with increased sodium levels and describes a detailed algorithm for the proper correction of hypernatremia.
2 Αυγ 2022 · The main goal of treatment of hypernatremia is the restoration of plasma tonicity. In particular, if the imbalance has occurred acutely, rapid correction improves the prognosis by preventing the effects of cellular dehydration; if hypernatremia has developed slowly, over a period of days, a slow correction rate (no more than 0.4 mmol/L/h) is ...
