Dr. Monzon
Salient featuresHISTORY• 60 year old female• cc: vomiting • Fever, dysuria, frequency•Headache, body malaise, nausea• (-) epigastric pain, diarrhea• (-) smoker and alcohol beverage drinker• (+) HPN on telmisartan 40 mg and
hydrocholothiazide 12.5 mg
Salient featuresPHYSICAL EXAMINATION• wheel-chair-borne•Orthostatic hypotension
LABORATORY FINDINGS•Presence of infection▫Leukocytosis with predominance of neutrophils▫Slightly turbid urine▫Hyaline cast, Pyuria, Bacteruria
• Increased serum creatinine•Decreased serum sodium = hyponatremia
GUIDE QUESTIONS
1. What is you diagnosis?
HYPOTONIC HYPONATREMIA
• a plasma Na+ concentration less than 135 mmol/ L (patient: 123 mmol/L)
1. What is the basis for your diagnosis?
▫Infection/ Fever▫Vomiting▫Nausea ▫Frequency▫Serum Na = 123mmol/L▫Orthostatic hypotension▫Medications▫Neurologic manifestations
Basis for diagnosis
•Vomiting ▫Results in disturbances in acid-base balance,
dehydration and electrolyte depletion▫Na+ loss
• Infection ▫fever sweating Na+ loss
• Frequency ▫Na+ loss in urine
Basis for diagnosis•Nausea ▫ ADH H2O retention hypoosmolarity
•Serum Na+ 123 mmol/L = Hyponatremia
•Orthostatic hypotension▫Sustained drop in systolic pressure (≥ 20 mmHg)
or diastolic pressure (≥ 10 mmHg) within 3 minutes of standing
▫In nonneurogenic causes (i.e. hypovolemia) the BP drop is accompanied by a compensatory increase in HR (>15bpm)
Basis for diagnosis
• Medications▫Telmisartan - ARB
angiotensin II Na+ reabsorption in tubules Na + excretion Na + loss
▫Hydrochlorothiazide - Diuretic “diuretics-induced hyponatremia” is almost always
due to thiazide diuretics Na + reabsorption in tubules Na + excretion
Na+ loss
** Creatinine levels may increase when ACE inhibitors (ACEI) or angiotensin-II receptor blockers (ARBs)
Basis for diagnosis
• Neurologic symptoms▫Related to osmotic water shift increased ICF
volume (cerebral edema)▫Severity is dependent on rate of onset and
absolute decrease in plasma Na concentration▫As plasma concentration falls…
Nausea, body malaise, headache, lethargy, confusion and obtundation
▫Plasma concentration < 120 mmol/L Stupor, seizures, coma
2. What other laboratory tests are needed to be requested for the patient?
4 laboratory findings provide useful information for the diagnosis of hyponatremia▫Serum osmolality▫Urine osmolality▫Urine Na+ concentration▫Urine K+ concentration
▫Serum glucose & lipid profile*

NoYes
2. What other laboratory tests are needed to be requested for the patient?
a. Serum osmolarity▫confirmation of true hypoosmolar hyponatremia▫determines fluid status to establish classification
of hyponatremia abnormally low in patients with hypoosmolar
hyponatremia normal or elevated in patients with hypertonic
hyponatremia due to serum hyperglycemia.
Serum osmolarity
Normal Range: 280 to 300mOsm/kg
Total osmolality (mOsm) = 2 (Na + K) + Glucose(mg/dl)/18 + BUN(mg/dl)/2.8
= 2(123 + 3.7) + 98/18 + 20/2.8 = 2(126.7) + 5.44 + 7.14= 265.98
Hypotonic Hyponatremia
2. What other laboratory tests are needed to be requested for the patient?
b. Urine osmolality▫may be helpful in establishing the diagnosis of
SIADH▫The appropriate renal response to hypoosmolality
is to excrete the maximum volume of dilute urine▫Patients with other forms of hyponatremia and
appropriately depressed levels of ADH have urine osmolarities below 100 mOsm/L.
2. What other laboratory tests are needed to be requested for the patient?
c. Urine Sodium Level▫to identify renal from nonrenal causes
If due to nonrenal causes eg, vomiting, diarrhea, fistulas, GI drainage, third
spacing of fluids have avid renal absorption of tubular sodium and urine
sodium levels of less than 20 mEq/L If due to renal causes
eg, diuretics, salt-losing nephropathy, aldosterone deficiency
have inappropriately elevated urine sodium levels in excess of 20 mEq/L.
2. What other laboratory tests are needed to be requested for the patient?
d. Urine Potassium Level▫Potassium levels often change with sodium levels▫↓ Na+, ↑K+
2. What other laboratory tests are needed to be requested for the patient?
•Serum glucose concentration▫Several physiologic states (e.g. hyperglycemia) exist
in which correct laboratory analysis yields low serum sodium levels, but these levels do not reflect a true hypoosmolar state.
▫Accumulation of extracellular glucose induces a shift of free water from the intracellular space to the extracellular space
▫Serum sodium concentration is diluted by a factor of 1.6 mEq/L for each 100 mg/dL increase above normal serum glucose concentration
GOALS:1.To raise the plasma Na+ concentration y restricting
water intake and promoting water loss2.To correct underlying disorder
MANAGEMENT • Check vital signs every 2 hrs• Check for changes neurologic status – seizures• Treat with Isotonic Saline (0.9 NaCl – 154 meq/L)• Calculate sodium deficit
3. How will you manage the patient’s hyponatremia?
Calculation of sodium deficit:
Target Na: 125 – 135 mEq/L (average: 130 meq/L)
Na deficit = 0.6 x wt. in kg X (desired Na – actual Na)
= 0.6 x (50 kg) x (130 – 123)
= 210 mEq/L
Correction rate: <0.5 meq/L/hr• First 8 hrs – 50% of calculated Na• Next 16 hrs – other 50%• Risk of development of Osmotic demyelination syndrome
in rapid correction of hyponatremia
•Do not give hypertonic saline may result to overcorrection Central Pontine
Myelinosis
•Do not give hypotonic fluids until serum Na is > 125 mg/L
• Correct K+ deficit

Slightly turbid urine •Cloudy urine may not be pathologic•Turbidity may be due to precipitation of crystals
or non-pathologic amorphous salts
•Materials that can cause turbidity:▫Phosphate ▫ RBCs▫Uric acid ▫ Ammonium urates▫Leukocytes ▫ Bacterial growth▫Mucus ▫ Blood clots▫Contamination▫Increased number of epithelial cells
♥
Hyaline Casts
•Can indicate mild to severe renal disease when increased in numbers▫proteinuria of renal (eg., glomerular disease) ▫extra-renal (eg., overflow proteinuria as in
myeloma) origin.• Can be found in healthy individuals after heavy
exercise
♥
Pyuria
•Greater numbers of pus cells generally indicate the presence of an inflammatory process somewhere along the course of the urinary tract▫Acute infection of kidney (pyelonephritis)▫Cystitis (bladder)▫Urethritis (urethra)
•Pyuria often is caused by urinary tract infections, and often significant bacteria can be seen on sediment preps, indicating a need for bacterial culture.
♥
Bacteruria
•Can be contamination from external sources•Rapidly multiply in improper stored specimen•With increased WBCs, indicative of urinary tract
infection
