The hypothesis is that strict fluid restriction leads to a larger increase in plasma sodium than standard treatment in patients with decompensated heart failure associated with hyponatremia. A secondary hypothesis is that the neurohormonal change is greater in patients treated with strict fluid restriction versus standard treatment.
depletional hyponatremia that in which low plasma concentration of sodium is associated with low total body sodium. dilutional hyponatremia that in which low plasma concentration of sodium results from loss of sodium from the body with nonosmotic retention of water.
