Causes
Common Causes
In humans, dehydration can be caused by a wide range of diseases and states that impair water homeostasis in the body. These include:
- External or stress-related causes
- Prolonged physical activity without consuming adequate water, especially in a hot and/or humid environment
- Prolonged exposure to dry air, e.g., in high-flying airplanes (5-15% r.h.)
- Survival situations, especially desert survival conditions
- Blood loss or hypotension due to physical trauma
- Diarrhea
- Hyperthermia
- Shock (hypovolemic)
- Vomiting
- Burns
- Lacrimation
- Malnutrition
- Electrolyte disturbance
- Hypernatremia (also caused by dehydration)
- Hyponatremia, especially from restricted salt diets
- Consumption of alcohol, caffeine or other diuretic substances.
- Fasting
- Recent rapid weight loss may reflect progressive depletion of fluid volume. (The loss of 1 L of fluid results in a weight loss of 1 kg, or 2.2 lb.)[1]
- Patient refusal of nutrition and hydration
- Electrolyte disturbance
- Other causes of obligate water loss
- Severe hyperglycemia, especially in Diabetes mellitus
