Diabetes Insipidus In Patients With Traumatic Severe Brain Injury

ABSTRACTTraumatic severe brain injury is a fatal injury, with a mortality rate of up to 50%. About 1.5 million people experience severe brain injury in the United States. There are more than 50,000 deaths and 500,000 incidents of permanent neurological sequelae. About 85% of mortality occurs in the first 2 weeks after the injury. One complication of a severe brain injury is diabetes insipidus. There are no definitive data on the incidence of diabetes insipidus in patients with traumatic severe brain injury of Indonesia so far. In this case report, a male, 45 years old, was taken to the Emergency Installation (IRD) after experiencing a traffic accident 12 hours before being hospitalized. After surgery, the signs of diabetes insipidus was presented by polyuria of 300cc / hour urine production and 149mmol / L hypernatremia, although the immediate administration of desmopressin, the patients clinical and hemodynamic was not shown any improvements. The patient passed away in the days five of treatment in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The main treatments for diabetes insipidus in traumatic severe brain injury are adequate rehydration and administration of desmopressin. Adequate hypovolemic, polyuric and hypernatremia corrections are the keys to the successful treatment of diabetes insipidus. Diabetes insipidus in cases of brain injury requires complicated treatment. Therefore, in the case of being handled improperly, it can bring death.
