Water restriction test OR administration of hypertonic saline 0.05 mL/kg/min for 2 h | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Water restriction test
❑ Overnight fluid restriction should be avoided ❑ Recommend the patient to stop drinking 2-3 hours before coming to clinic ❑ Meaure urine volume every hour ❑ Measure urine osmolality every hour ❑ Measure plasma sodium concentration every 2 hours ❑ Measure plasma osmolality every 2 hours | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Test endpoints in adults: ❑ Urine osmolality reaches normal value (above 600 mosmol/kg) ❑ The urine osmolality is stable for 2 or 3 successive hourly measurements despite a rising plasma osmolality ❑ Plasma osmolality >295-300 mosmol/kg ❑ Plasma sodium is 145 or higher | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
