In the January 2008 issue, the article "Toxicology Brief: Sodium hypochlorite bleach ingestion in two dogs" states that lactated Ringer's solution was used to treat hypernatremia and hyperchloremia. It seems that a fluid such as dextrose 5% in water may be more appropriate, as well as ...
The turnover of fluid is fairly slow in humans, with a basic need of 1.0 mL/kg/h. The body has limited tolerance for losses of body fluid, so the intensivist has to deal with derangements such as hypovolemia, volume depletion, and dehydration. An infusion fluid can be tailored to distri...
Hypernatremia Management Normal Saline or Ringer lactate to restore volume Hypotonic solution (D5 1/4 NS) to correct calculated deficit over 48 hours • Water Deficit –Normal body H20 - Current body H20 • Current body water –0.6 x body weight (kg) x Normal Na/Observed Na...
Hypernatremia 2. DKA 3. HHS Advantages of colloids -Causes sustained increase in plasma volume -Requires smaller volume for resuscitation-Causes less peripheral edema-Tends to remain intravascular after repletion-Causes more rapid resuscitation-Useful in conditions of altered vascular permeability...

The regulation of choroidal AVP synthesis is similar to that observed in the hypothalamus and it has been shown that chronic hypernatremia increases the expression of AVP in the CP [185]. It also appears that a well-known inhibitory effect of centrally-released angiotensin II on CSF production...
Sodium chloride 0.45% (1/2 NS), also known ashalf-strength normal saline, is a hypotonic IV solution used for replacing water in patients who havehypovolemiawithhypernatremia. Excess use may lead tohyponatremiadue to the dilution of sodium, especially in patients who areproneto water retention...
Background: The treatment of hypernatremia in newborns is usually done by giving intravenous (IV) fluids. Methodology: This study aimed to determine whether treating neonates with hypernatremia using oral feeds was not inferior by a margin of 10% to treatment with IV fluids and feeds in ...
