Hyponatremia content leads to hypervolemia and water content to hyponatremia. There is volume expansion in the body, no edema, but hyponatremia occurs Hypovolemia (extracellular volume loss) is due to total body sodium loss. Hyponatremia is caused by a relatively smaller loss in total body water. Miscellaneous causes that are not included under the above classification scheme include the following: The causes of and treatments for hyponatremia can only be understood by having a grasp of the size of the body fluid compartments and subcompartments and their regulation; how under normal circumstances the body is able to maintain the sodium concentration within
