Prospective determination of the incidence and severity of hyponatraemia in older hospitalised patients with acute urinary tract obstruction

Abstract: Introduction acute urinary tract obstruction (aUTO) is a common finding in older hospitalised patients. Anecdotal reports described hyponatraemia in patients with aUTO, which subsides rapidly with relief of the obstruction. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence, severity and subsequent correction of hyponatraemia in patients with aUTO. Methods this is a prospective, single-centre, observationa… Show more

“…The underlying pathophysiological mechanism in this case is not clear, although it is possible that it is similar to other inflammatory processes that stimulate the non-osmotic secretion of ADH. SIAD is also described in the context of acute urinary retention, probably due to stimulation of ADH secretion by bladder distension [3,4]. It is possible that in our case, infiltration of the bladder wall by the inflammatory mass stimulated ADH by a similar mechanism.…”
