Adipsic Hypernatremia Complicated by Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic State and Extensive Venous Thromboembolism After Traumatic Brain Injury: A Case Report [PDF]
ABSTRACTAdipsic hypernatremia is a rare disorder characterized by impaired thirst perception despite severe hyperosmolality, most commonly resulting from hypothalamic dysfunction. Hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) may further aggravate dehydration and electrolyte imbalance, increasing the risk of neurologic injury, acute kidney injury (AKI), and ...

Diagnosis and Treatment of Brain Injury Complicated by Hypernatremia
Hypernatremia is a common electrolyte disorder in patients with brain injury. The mortality of brain injury patients with severe hypernatremia may be as high as 86.8%. The efficacy of conventional treatment for hypernatremia is limited.

Understanding Hypernatremia [PDF]
Understanding hypernatremia is at times difficult for many clinicians. However, hypernatremia can often be deciphered easily with some basic understanding of water and sodium balance. Here, the basic pathophysiological abnormalities underlying the development of sodium disorders are reviewed, and case examples are given.

Extracellular ionic concentration modulates arrhythmias in a simulated population of human ventricular myocytes with long QT syndrome type 3 [PDF]
Abstract figure legend Schematic illustrating the in silico study pipeline. A total of 50,000 virtual myocytes were generated, which were then filtered to 7093 myocytes that fit experimentally constrained biomarkers for physiological electrical and calcium behaviour under wild‐type conditions.

Hypernatremia during the first week of life in very preterm infants and neurodevelopmental outcomes at 3 to 4 years of age: a cohort study [PDF]
Background Hypernatremia is a common electrolyte disorder in both term and preterm infants. Previous studies have suggested a correlation between hypernatremia and short-term complications in preterm infants, such as intraventricular hemorrhage and ...

Hypernatremia is an electrolyte disorder most prevalent in the elderly and the critically ill, with over 60% of cases developing over the course of an inpatient stay. Characterized by elevated serum sodium concentrations, this disorder is manifested either by pure-water loss without replacement, or excessive sodium intake without appropriate water ...

Anesthetic care of a child with severe hypernatremia [PDF]
Severe electrolyte derangements are routinely corrected prior to elective anesthetic care. However, in urgent and emergent situations, anesthetic care may be required even with electrolyte disorders.

Hypernatremia in Newborns: A Practical Approach to Management
Hypernatremia is a potentially serious condition in both term and preterm babies, which can lead to severe and permanent neurological damage. There are many physiological changes in sodium homeostasis that occur soon after birth.
