6 Hyponatremia Posm Nae + Ke TBW PNa < 135 mmol/l Posm Nae Translocational Hyponatremia PseudoHyponatremia True hyponatremia

7 Symptoms Serum Na + (meq/l) < 120 Symptoms Decreased taste Thirst Anorexia, N + V Muscle cramps Weakness Lethargy Restlessness Confusion Delirium Coma Seizures

8 Workup for Hyponatremia 3 mandatory lab tests Serum Osmolality Urine Osmolality Urine Sodium Concentration Additional labs depending on clinical suspicion TSH, cortisol (Hypothryoidism or Adrenal insufficiency) Albumin, BM, triglycerides and SPEP (psuedohyponatremia, cirrhosis, MM)

9 Approach Hyponatremia : P Na<135 High Posm (>295) P osm เพ อย นย นภาวะ true hyponatremia Normal Posm ( ) Translocation hypo-natremia glucose or manitol Hyponatremia + Hypo-osmolality Low(<285) True-hypoNatremia Uosm Pseudo-hypo-Natremia yes Inappropriate ADH Work >100 ADH Work Lipid or Protein เพ อย นย นว าม การหล งของ ADH (เม อ U osm.>100) Hypothyroidism Hypoadrenalism SIADH no primary polydipsia Appropriate ADH Work Volume depletion

10

11 Management Depend on: Acute or chronic Asymptomatic or symtomatic Rate of decrease in serum sodium Volume status

12

13 Severe hyponatremia (<125 mmol/l) Acute Acute Duration<48hr. symptomatic Chronic Chronic Duration>48hr. Asymptomatic Chronic rarely<48hr. Emegency correction Needed Emegency hypertonic correction saline Needed hypertonic 1-2 Saline ml/kg/h, 1-2 ml/kg/h, coadministration coadministration of of furosemide furosemide Some immediate Correction needed Hypertonic saline1-2 ml/kg/h Furosemide Water restriction F/U serum, urine electrolyte Not exceed 1.5 mmol/l/h or 20 mmol/d No No immediate correction needed Long term management

14 Severe hyponatremia (<125 mmol/l) symptomatic Asymptomatic Acute Acute Duration<48hr. Chronic Chronic Duration>48hr. Some Some immediate Correction needed Chronic Chronic rarely<48hr. No No immediate correction needed Emegency correction Long term management Treatment irreversible causes Water restriction Democloclocycline mg bid Urea 15-60g/d VV2 2 receptor antagonists

15 Treatment 1.Corrected P Na level 2.Corrected Etiology(underlying) NaCl Restric water Volume depletion Diuretic Adrenal insufficiency Hypothyroid SIADH Edema Renal failure Primary polydipsia

16 Case consult A 75 year-old woman Watery diarrhea 10/day for 2 days orthostatic presyncope for 1 days drinking 1 litres of water/day Underlying HT on HCTZ (50 mg) 1X1 lab Na 125 meq/l K 3.3 meq/l Cl 110 meq/l HCO 3 18 meq/l # Hyponatremia

17 Hypo-osmolar hyponatremia Hypovolemic Non-hypovolemic GI Losses Renal Losses Skin Losses Vommitting diarrhea bleeding obstruction Diuretics hypoaldo saltwasting neph Burns GPP/eryth roderma SIADH Edematous States CNS Disease Pulmonary Drugs CHF NS Cirrhosis Slide courtesy of Adam Oster

18 Hypovolemic Hyponatremia Loss Na > Loss H 2 O Low ECF ---- ADH released increases tubular reabsorption of H 2 O low urine volume Renin released (low renal perfusion) kidneys retain sodium urine sodium low (<20 mmol/l)

19 What caused our patient s hyponatremia? GI losses HCTZ (impairs excretion of free water) as ECF decreases kidney exchanges K for Na to maintain volume - thus low K (Aldosterone)

20 How will you treat our patient off HCTZ Treat diarrhea oral rehydration salts IV NSS + KCl until no further postural drop oral potasium supplement Follow up electrolytes

21 SIADH Euvolemic Hyponatremia DDx hypothyroidism adrenal insufficiency psychogenic polydipsia

22 SIADH Diagnosis clinically euvolemic normal renal function normal thyroid (TSH) normal adrenal (cortisol stim test) no medications known to cause SIADH-like syndrome

23 SIADH causes Source: Yeates K, et al. CMAJ 2004;170(3):365-9

24

25 SIADH - Treatment acute hypertonic saline goal to increase Na by ~5 over 12 hours or until asymptomatic fluid restriction ml/d goal to increase Na by ~5 over 12 hours chronic fluid restriction Li (inhibits renal effects of ADH) demeclocycline 600 mg po od

26 Management Symptomatic hyponatremia Cause: SIADH W/U: serum osm, urine osm, Na deficit: calculate Form IV: 3%NaCl Rate: 1 meq/l

27 Calculation [Na] deficit = 10x0.6X50 = 300 meq/l Form IV: 3%NaCl (513 mosm/l) Volume: (300X1000)/513 = ml(600 ml) Rate: 1 meq/l/hr(60ml/hr)x 5hr then 0.5 meq/l/hr(30 ml/hr) correct Na not excess 12 meq/l/day

28 Case consult A 58 year-old man BW 50 kg. Underlying: Non small cell lung cancer confusion & lethargy for 2 days P/E Euvolemia Nausea/vomiting no ascites / no edema no sign of hypothyroidism or hypoadrenalism Lab: Na 108 meq/l, K 3.9 meq/l,cl 88 meq/l,co 3 88 meq/l Cr 1.4 mg/dl, serum osm 220 mosm/l urine Na 44 meq/kg, urine osm 660 mosm/kg

29 Consult # Euvolemic hyponatremia----- SIADH

31 Hypervolemic hyponatremia Increased ECF CHF cirrhosis / ascites nephrotic syndrome low effective circulating volume body retains Na and H 2 0 low urine Na (<20) Treatment Na and free water restriction

32 Pathophysiology CPM central pontine myelinolysis Acute non-inflammatory demyelination in basis pontis and other CNS sites (in ~10%) Mechanism unknown; felt to occur due to rapid changes in cell volume Actual incidence is unknown Risk factors Na + <120 meq/l for > 48 hrs Aggressive IV resuscitation w/ hypertonic saline Most cases occurred with rates of correction > 12 mmol/l /24 hrs Hypernatremia during treatment

33 CPM central pontine myelinolysis Clinical Features Usually neurologic deterioration hrs after rapid Na + correction Confusion, horizontal gaze paralysis, spastic quadriplegia, pseudobulbar palsy, encephalopathy coma, locked-in syndrome Dx MRI Tx supportive

34 Treatment summary Hypovolemic hyponatremia Correct with NS (0.9%) which is mildly hypertonic compared to pts serum Euvolemic hyponatremia: Restrict free water intake Identify underlying cause SIADH: Giving normal saline will worsen condition due to free water retention Can Tx with lithium and demeclocycline inhibit action of ADH Hypervolemic hyponatremia: Restrict free water intake +/- diuretics may worsen due to further Na+ loss dialysis if large amount of fluid needs to be taken off Slide courtesy of M Haager

35 Dry Source of Sodium loss? Hyponatremia Normovolemic (excess total body water but no edema) Fluid overloaded (excess water > excess Na + ) Renal: -Diuretics -Adrenal insufficiency -Salt-wasting nephritis -Bicarbonate loss -RTA -metabolic alkalosis -ketonuria -Osmotic diuresis -glucose -mannitol Extra-renal losses -GI losses -Third spacing Urine Na + <10 mmol/l SIADH Drugs Glucocorticoid deficiency Hypothyroidism Pain / emotion Urine Na + >20 mmol/l Nephrotic Syndrome Cirrhosis CHF Urine Na + <10 mmol/l Acute / Chronic Renal Failure Urine Na + >20 mmol/l Urine Na + >20 mmol/l Normal Saline Water restriction

36 Hypernatremia Symptoms anorexia N/V fatigue irritable Signs lethargy stupor coma muscle twitching hyperreflexia spasticity tremor ataxia focal neurological signs
