No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aims of this study are to investigate whether mannitol stimulates copeptin (part 1: proof-of-concept) and whether the copeptin levels upon mannitol infusion differ in primary polydipsia and arginine vasopressin deficiency (part 2: pilot study).

Conditions

  • Polyuria-polydipsia Syndrome
  • Arginine Vasopressin Deficiency
  • Primary Polydipsia

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Mannitol Infusion (blinded)

1 g of mannitol per kg body weight is infused in 30 minutes (≙ 5 ml/kg body weight), with an upper limit of 80 g, equivalent to a body weight of 80 kg or a volume of 400 ml. The solution used for infusion is 20% mannitol in water for injection and is administered at a rate of 0.17 ml/kg/min.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Placebo Infusion (blinded)

0.9% saline will be administered in the same amount as the mannitol dose infusion (= 5 ml/kg body weight), with a rate of 0.17 ml/kg/min in 30 minutes, with an upper limit of 400 ml (equivalent to a body weight of 80 kg).

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Mannitol Infusion (open label)

1.5 g of mannitol per kg body weight is infused in 30 minutes (≙ 7.5 ml/kg body weight), with an upper limit of 120 g, equivalent to a body weight of 80 kg or a volume of 600 ml. The solution used for infusion is 20% mannitol in water for injection.
