37 Hyponatremia and HF Summary whyponatremia is common in patients with AHF. wit has a strong impact on LOS, short and long-term mortality and rehospitalizations.

38 Hyponatremia and HF Summary Chronic hyponatremia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, gait disturbances and altered cognition that predisposes increased risk of falls and fractures.

39 Hyponatremia and HF Summary Vasopressin receptor antagonists have strong aqueretic and hemodynamic effects and lead to a correction of volume overload and hyponatremia without effect on other electrolytes or renal function.

40 Hyponatremia and HF Summary On going studies should provide more information on the role of vasopressin antagonists in patients with the ADHF who have both volume overload and hyponatremia.
