Disturbances of Sodium in Critically Ill Adult Neurologic Patients R3 김대언
Normal Physiology of Salt and Water Regulation • Sodium • major extracellular cation in the body • most important osmotically active solutes • maintained by Na-K ATPase pump • total body sodium : controlled by renal excretion • reabsorption : predominantly at proximal convoluted tubule
affected by • 1) sympathetic innervation • 2) atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP) • 3) brain natriuretic peptide(BNP) • cause natriuresis via direct effect on the inner medullary collecting duct, inhibiting renin and aldosterone
Total body water • controlled by renal manipulation of body sodium • water balance monitoring by • 1) osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus • 2) low pressure baroreceptors in Rt atrium • 3) high pressure in the carotid sinus • water balance controlling by • 1) antidiuretic hormone(ADH) • 2) thirst • ADH : increase of ECF tonicity, hypovolemia
Changes in sodium and water balance • in acute hyperosmolar states : loss of intracellular water with cell shrinkage with gradual restoration of brain volume via the generation of nonelectrolyte osmotically active intracellular solute • in hypoosmolar state : cellular expansion, corrected by loss of intracellular solute
Hyponatremia • epidemiology • defined as serum sodium <135mmol/L • 1~15% of hospital inpatients • 7~60% mortality increase • more common in neurologic patients : SAH, TBI, basilar meningitis • causes • SIADH, CSWS, iatrogenic hyponatremia
Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion • urinary sodium loss without corresponding loss of water • fluid restriction : Tx • lower threshold for thirst, loss of control of ADH release • classified into 4 category • 1) neoplasia • 2) non-malignant lung disease • 3) drugs : antiepileptics • 4) neurologic disease : meningitis, SAH, TBI, tumor
Cerebral Salt Wasting Syndrome • polyuria and natriuresis • defined as renal loss of sodium d/t intracranial disease, leading to hyponatremia and hypovolemia • inc. level od ANP, BNP • mainly associated SAH
Investigation of Hyponatremic Neurologic Patient • investigation to underlyng cause before management • speed of onset : more important • hypervolemia with normal total body sodium(SIADH) vs hypovolemia with low total body sodium(CSWS)
in SIADH • high free water absorption • low fractional water and sodium excretion • low or normal urine output • inc. ADH
in CSWS • normal free water absorption • inc. fractional water and sodium excretion • high urine output • inc. ADH • volume depletion in CSWS : key difference
Treatment of Hyponatremia • supportive management : asymptomatic patient • gradual correction : target to Sx. rather than biochemically normality
Specific treatment of SIADH • fluid restriction to 1L/day-> slow inc. of sodium 1.5mmol/L/day • furosemide • lithium : • beneficial in pt. with SIADH after brain trauma • blocker of 3,5-adenosine monophosphatase • inhibits the action of ADH on the renal tubule - maintain plasma con as 1mmol/L • demeclocycline : ADH antagonist, less toxic but taks long time
Specific Treatment of CSWS • fluid and sodium resuscitation : 0.9% solution used at first • 3% as acute symptomatic pt. • prophylactic fludrocortisone 0.1~0.4mg/da
Neurologic Complications of treatment of Hyponatremia • rapid correction : dangerous • myelinolysis : • pontine and extrapontine disorder • acute elevation of sodium • alcoholism, malnutrition, liver disease-risk factors • mutism, dysarthria, lethargy, spastic quadriparesis and pseudobulbar palsy • gradual correction <10mmol/L/24h
Hypernatremia • serum sodium >145mmol/L • 1% of all hospital patients • in ICU, 9% of Patient water depletion and >15mmol/L
Central Diabetic Insipidus • failure of homeostatic release od ADH from the hypothalamopituitary axis • associated with pituitary surgery, TBI, Ant. comm. a aneurysmal SAH • ADH : released from fiber ending in the median eminence • 3.7% of neurosurgical unit : 1/3 SAH, 1/3 TBI, 1/6 pituitary surgery, 1/6 ICH
Investigation of the Hypernatremic Neurologic Patient • should be distinguished from simple dehydration by urine assessment, biochemical analysis • thirst is often unreliable sign • high serum osmolality(>305mmol/kg), serum sodium(>145mmol/L) with low urine osmolality(<350mmol/kg) • urine SG : when urgent treatment is required(<1.005)
Management of hypernatremia • invariably water replacement and retention • vasopressin : 0.4ug iv or 100~200ug intranasally • overrapid correction : can cause cerebral, pulmonary edema-10mmol/L/day
