Summary

Hyponatremia is the most frequent electrolyte disorder encountered in clinical practice. The patient approach, however, is still problematic, above all because hyponatremia is a manifestation correlated to various pathological conditions, with complex etiopathogenesis.

Even though some algorithms have been proposed to correctly assess hyponatremia subtype classification and patient volume status, there is no single parameter that has proven to be able alone to perfectly achieve this result.

Conditions

  • Hyponatremia
  • Hyponatremia With Extracellular Fluid Depletion
  • Hyponatremia With Normal Extracellular Fluid Volume
