  • Guidelines for the Management of Hyponatraemia in Hospitalised Patients
    Guidelines for the management of hyponatraemia in hospitalised patients Authors: V Mishra Aims: To provide guidelines for appropriate investigations and treatment of hyponatraemia in hospitalised patients. Normal range Mild Moderate hyponatraemia Severe hyponatraemia hyponatraemia 135-146 mmol/L 130-135 mmol/L 120-129 mmol/L <120 mmol/L Evaluation of hyponatraemia STEP 1: Rule out artefactual causes Is the patient on IV fluids? If so, could the sample have been taken “downstream” from the infusion site? Could the sample have been taken from the same line? STEP 2: Clinical history Check fluid balance to exclude fluid overload Is the patient diabetic? Hyperglycemia may cause dilutional hyponatraemia and increased urinary loss of sodium Correct serum sodium for hyperglycemia (rise in plasma glucose >5.5mmol/L) by using equation given in (Appendix 1) Consider medications (Table 1). In some cases, stopping the medication or changing to an alternative that does not cause hyponatraemia may be sufficient. Monitor sodium concentrations to assess the effects of this management. It may take several days for the sodium to normalise after withdrawing medications Review clinical history for relevant conditions (such as congestive cardiac failure, kidney disease, liver failure, lung pathology) Loss of weight /appetite: investigate for malignancy 1 Table 1: Drugs known to cause hyponatraemia Drug group Examples known to causecause hyponatraemia (other compounds may exist) TThiazidehiazide diuretics Bendroflumethiazide, Metolazone, Indapamide,

  • DIURETICS Diuretics Are Drugs That Promote the Output of Urine Excreted by the Kidneys
    DIURETICS Diuretics are drugs that promote the output of urine excreted by the Kidneys. The primary action of most diuretics is the direct inhibition of Na+ transport at one or more of the four major anatomical sites along the nephron, where Na+ reabsorption takes place. The increased excretion of water and electrolytes by the kidneys is dependent on three different processes viz., glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption (active and passive) and tubular secretion. Diuretics are very effective in the treatment of Cardiac oedema, specifically the one related with congestive heart failure. They are employed extensively in various types of disorders, for example, nephritic syndrome, diabetes insipidus, nutritional oedema, cirrhosis of the liver, hypertension, oedema of pregnancy and also to lower intraocular and cerebrospinal fluid pressure. Therapeutic Uses of Diuretics i) Congestive Heart Failure: The choice of the diuretic would depend on the severity of the disorder. In an emergency like acute pulmonary oedema, intravenous Furosemide or Sodium ethacrynate may be given. In less severe cases. Hydrochlorothiazide or Chlorthalidone may be used. Potassium-sparing diuretics like Spironolactone or Triamterene may be added to thiazide therapy. ii) Essential hypertension: The thiazides usually sever as primary antihypertensive agents. They may be used as sole agents in patients with mild hypertension or combined with other antihypertensives in more severe cases. iii) Hepatic cirrhosis: Potassium-sparing diuretics like Spironolactone may be employed. If Spironolactone alone fails, then a thiazide diuretic can be added cautiously. Furosemide or Ethacrymnic acid may have to be used if the oedema is regractory, together with spironolactone to lessen potassium loss. Serum potassium levels should be monitored periodically.
