siadh classification

Classification

  • Acute setting (<48 hours since onset) where moderate symptoms are noted, treatment options for hyponatremia include the following:
  • 3% hypertonic saline (513 mEq/L)
  • Loop diuretics with saline
  • Vasopressin-2 receptor antagonists (aquaretics, such as conivaptan or tolvaptan)
  • Water restriction
  • In chronic asymptomatic setting, the treatment is as follows:
  • Fluid restriction
  • Vasopressin-2 receptor antagonists
  • Other agents to be considered include loop diuretics with increased salt intake, urea, and demeclocycline
  • Raise serum sodium by 0.5-1 mEq/hr, and not more than 10-12 mEq in the first 24 hours,to avoid complications like Osmotic demyelination syndrome.
  • In rare medical emergencies more commonly seen in cardiology in the context of hypervolemic severe hyponatremia rather than in SIADH :
  • Continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH)
  • Slow, low-efficiency daily dialysis (SLEDD have been used to improve hyponatremia. These methods are invasive so their use is very limited.[1]
