The Corrected Serum Sodium Concentration in Hyperglycemic Crises: Computation and Clinical Applications

The Corrected Serum Sodium Concentration in Hyperglycemic Crises: Computation and Clinical Applications

In hyperglycemia, hypertonicity results from solute (glucose) gain and loss of water in excess of sodium plus potassium through osmotic diuresis. Patients with stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hyperglycemia have minimal or no osmotic diuresis; patients with preserved renal function and diabe...
