Symptomatic hyponatremia during glomerular filtration rate testing
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hyponatremia affects nearly one in five of all hospitalized patients. Severe hyponatremia is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, and is therefore important to recognize. Prior reports have linked duloxetine with hyponatremia, but it is uncommon. In this case report, we describe a research subject taking duloxetine who developed severe symptomatic hyponatremia during glomerular filtration rate testing despite having undergone such testing uneventfully in the past.

Hyponatremia and Worsening Sodium Levels Are Associated With Long‐Term Outcome in Patients Hospitalized for Acute Heart Failure
BACKGROUND Hyponatremia predicts poor prognosis in patients with acute heart failure (AHF). However, the association of the severity of hyponatremia and changes of serum sodium levels with long-term outcome has not been delineated. METHODS AND RESULTS The study population was drawn from the HARVEST registry (Heart Failure Registry of Taipei Veterans General Hospital), so that patients hospita...
متن کاملRole of antidiuretic hormone in hyponatremia in patients with isolated adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency.
We found symptomatic hyponatremia in four elderly patients in which serum sodium (Na) levels ranged from 101 to 122 mEq/l. All 4 patients had low levels of plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), serum cortisol, and urinary excretion of 17-OHCS, and poor responses of ACTH to exogenous insulin and antidiuretic hormone (ADH). Other pituitary hormones were all normal. They were therefore diagno...

Plasma concentrations of immunoreactive human atrial natriuretic peptide (human ANP) were sequentially determined in 12 infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) or meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS) during various phases of diuresis to elucidate the role of human ANP in the occurrence of spontaneous diuresis in the newborn. Plasma immunoreactive ANP concentrations during the diuretic as...

متن کاملEffect of Artificial Pacing of the Heart
Six patients with complete heart block provided an opportunity to study renal hemodynamic responses to increases in heart rate produced by an artificial pacemaker. Observations were made at rest and following exercise during idioventricular rhythm and slow rates and were repeated after increasing the rate to 70/min by means of an artificial pacemaker. Ability to excrete a water load was impaire...
