  2. Hypotonic hyponatremia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypotonic_hyponatremia

    Hypoosmolar hyponatremia is a condition where hyponatremia is associated with a low plasma osmolality. [1] The term "hypotonic hyponatremia" is also sometimes used. [2] When the plasma osmolarity is low, the extracellular fluid volume status may be in one of three states: low volume, normal volume, or high volume.

  3. Tea and toast syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tea_and_toast_syndrome

    Treatment choice depends on the type of hyponatremia. [2] Traditional treatment for hyponatremia depends on the volume load in the person. For those who are euvolemic (normal body volume load), fluid intake should be restricted. In those that are hypovolemic (low body volume load), give isotonic saline.

  4. Hyponatremia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyponatremia

    Hyponatremia or hyponatraemia is a low concentration of sodium in the blood. [4] It is generally defined as a sodium concentration of less than 135 mmol/L (135 mEq/L), with severe hyponatremia being below 120 mEq/L. [3] [8] Symptoms can be absent, mild or severe.

  5. Intravascular volume status - Wikipedia

    The machine was tested in clinical studies for the treatment of a broad range of medical conditions related to Intravascular Volume Status, such as anemia, [4] congestive heart failure, [5] sepsis, [6] CFS, [7] Hyponatremia, [8] Syncope [9] and more.

  6. Hypovolemic shock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypovolemic_shock

    Hypovolemic shock is a form of shock caused by severe hypovolemia (insufficient blood volume or extracellular fluid in the body). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It can be caused by severe dehydration or blood loss . [ 3 ] [ 2 ] Hypovolemic shock is a medical emergency ; if left untreated, the insufficient blood flow can cause damage to organs , leading to ...

  7. Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syndrome_of_inappropriate...

    Moderate or severe hyponatremia, or hyponatremia with severe symptoms is treated by raising the serum sodium level by 1–2 mmol per liter per hour for the first few hours with a goal of raising levels less than 8–10 mmol per liter in the first 24 hours and 18 mmol per liter in the first 48 hours. [2]

  8. Electrolyte imbalance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolyte_imbalance

    These electrolytes must be replaced to keep the electrolyte concentrations of the body fluids constant. Hyponatremia, or low sodium, is the most commonly seen type of electrolyte imbalance. [12] [13] Treatment of electrolyte imbalance depends on the specific electrolyte involved and whether the levels are too high or too low. [3]

  9. Hypovolemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypovolemia

    Hypovolemia, also known as volume depletion or volume contraction, is a state of abnormally low extracellular fluid in the body. [1] This may be due to either a loss of both salt and water or a decrease in blood volume .
