Risk factors for hyponatremia after hypotonic fluid infusion
Background Hypotonic maintenance i.v. fluids (IVF) pose a higher risk of hyponatremia than isotonic maintenance IVF, but isotonic maintenance IVF can result in excess sodium (Na) load in children. This study analyzed the incidence and risk factors for hyponatremia in children given hypotonic fluids...

Zusammenfassung: | Background
Hypotonic maintenance i.v. fluids (IVF) pose a higher risk of hyponatremia than isotonic maintenance IVF, but isotonic maintenance IVF can result in excess sodium (Na) load in children. This study analyzed the incidence and risk factors for hyponatremia in children given hypotonic fluids with different Na concentrations and different maintenance rates.
Methods
We performed a retrospective analysis using medical charts of children aged 3 months–15 years. The children were normonatremic (Na ≥135 mmol/L and |
