hyponatremia, serum sodium less than 135  mEq/L (mmol/L),is classified based on  ADH level, duration of hyponatremia, serum osmolality and volume status.
Hyponatremia ([[serum]] [[sodium]] less than 135  mEq/L) may be classified based upon [[serum]] [[ADH]] level, duration of hyponatremia, [[serum]] [[osmolality]] and volume status. The various classification systems enable accurate identification of the cause of hyponatremia and hence translate into optimal management based on the condition of the patient.

Overview

Hyponatremia (serum sodium less than 135 mEq/L) may be classified based upon serum ADH level, duration of hyponatremia, serum osmolality and volume status. The various classification systems enable accurate identification of the cause of hyponatremia and hence translate into optimal management based on the condition of the patient.

Classification

Hyponatremia is defined as serum sodium less than 135 mEq/L (mmol/L) [1] .There are different classifications for hyponatremia based on duration, severity, volume status, ADH level and serum osmolality.

Classification based on serum sodium level

Hyponatremia is classified based on serum sodium level into the following types [2] :

  • Mild : Serum sodium 130– 135 mmol/L
  • Moderate:  Serum sodium ≤125–129 mmol/L
  • Severe: Serum sodium <124 mmol/L

Classification based on duration

Hyponatremia may be classified based on duration into the following types:[3]

  • Hyper acute [4]: Develops in a few hours, excess water intake, impaired water excretion, runners, users of the recreational drug (Ecstasy)

( Etiologies cause hyperacute and acute hyponatremia are applicable to each category interchangeably depending on the onset of symptoms)

Classification based on ADH level

Hyponatremia may be classified into the following types based on ADH levels:

  • ↑ ADH: Volume depletion (GI loss, Renal loss) , decreased perfusion ( CHF, Cirrhosis), increased ADH secretion, reset osmostat
  • ↓ ADH: Primary polydipsia, ↓ dietary solute intake, advanced renal failure

Classification based upon osmolality

Hyponatremia may be classified into the following types based on serum osmolarity:[5]

  • Hypertonic hyponatremia: Serum osmolality >295 mOsm/kg
  • Hypotonic hyponatremia: Serum osmolality < 275 mOsm/kg
  • Normotonic hyponatremia: Serum osmolality 275–295 mOsm/kg

Classification based on volume status

Hyponatremia may be classified into the following types according to volume status :

Volume status Sodium status Causes
Hypovolemic

Hyponatremia

  • total body water ↓
  • total body sodium ↓↓
Euvolemic

Hyponatremia

  • total body water ↑
  • total body sodium ↔
  • Drugs, increased ADH level, reset osmostat, low dietary salt intake
Hypervolemic Hyponatremia
  • total body water ↑↑
  • total body sodium ↑
