Active clinical trials for "Hyponatremia"

We aimed to investigate the role of bioimpedance spectroscopy for the diagnosis of hyponatremia

A Drug Utilisation Survey is performed to monitor and document the drug utilisation patterns of Samsca in routine medical practice. A Post-Authorisation Safety Study is performed to collect information on the safety of Samsca when used in a real-life setting.

Hypo- and hypernatremia are the most frequent electrolyte disorders found in hospitalized patients. The increasing use of diuretics and other medications influencing the water and sodium homeostasis potentially lead to a rise in the prevalence of the electrolyte disorders. Only little data is available on the frequency and the mechanisms leading to hypo-/hypernatremia. Thus, the investigators aim to A.) determine the frequency of hypo- and hypernatremia in the emergency department of a large tertiary university hospital and B.) explore the mechanisms leading to the development of dysnatremias by detailed clinical and laboratory examinations.

The aim of this study is to identify factors associated with hyponatremia among patients hospitalized in the internal medicine ward. Consequtive patients hospitalized because of hyponatremia will be recruited. Follow up will include clinical factors such as background diseases, complete drug history, blood tests including Biochemistry tests (Sodium, renal function), endocrinological evaluation, thyroid function tests, cortisol,urinary sodium on addmition. One month following discharge follow up Sodium level will be taken.

Osmolality of contrast media can be resulted in translocational hyponatremia after percutaneous coronary intervention.

Prospoctive cohort of high-dose cyclophosphamide exposed patients. With active estandardize screening of hyponatremia development in the follow up period.

This study seeks to investigate if hyponatraemia be a direct contributor to death in schizophrenic and bipolar patients, and gauge the potential role of somatic comorbidity and psychotropic polypharmacy, with emphasis on antipsychotics and antidepressants.

The prospective clinical diagnosis of hyponatremia is often very difficult- but requirement for an appropriate and riskless treatment of hyponatremia. This study try to establish an algorithm handling a prospective clinical categorization of hyponatremia and approving together the start of an appropriate symptomatic therapy.

Hypothesis: the hyponatremia of multiple myeloma (m.m.)is true and not pseudohyponatremia by using the stewart approach to acid - base interpretation, would like to show that the positive charged m- proteins produced in m.m.result in true hyponatremia.

Hyponatremia (serum sodium of less than 135 mmol/L)is a very common electrolyte disorder. The reasons for the disorder varies as well as if it is acute or chronic. In this study we wish to follow changes in colloid osmotic pressure and osmolality during the initial treatment hours. We also wish to use mass balance for the calculation of body compartments and to detect fluid translocation between these.
