Hypernatremia and central Diabetes Insipidus following Neurosurgical procedure of Trauma
Journal Title: Archives of Pathology and Clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The greater risk of hypernatremia in patients over 65 years old are associated with impaired mental status and physical disability which may result in impaired sensation to thirst, impaired ability to express thirst, and/or decrease access to water [1,2]. Normally, anti-diuretic hormone (ADH, also known as arginine-vasopressin, AVP) is secreted in response to 1-2% increase in osmolality which stimulate thirst, as do hypovolemia and hypotension.
