Hypotonic hyponatremia Hypotonic hyponatremia Hypoosmolar hyponatremia is a condition where hyponatremia associated with a low plasma osmolality. The term "hypotonic hyponatremia" is also sometimes used. When the plasma osmolarity is low, the extracellular fluid volume status may be in one of three states: low volume, normal volume, or high volume. Loss of water is accompanied by loss of sodium. Treat underlying cause and give IV isotonic saline. It is important to note that sudden restoration of blood volume to normal will turn off the stimulus for continued ADH secretion. Hence, a prompt water diuresis will occur. This can cause a sudden and
Human serum albumin domain. Serum albumin is commonly measured by recording the change in absorbance upon binding to a dye such as bromocresol green or bromocresol purple. Serum albumin concentration is typically 35–50 g/L (3.5–5.0 g/dL). Hypoalbuminemia means low blood albumin levels. This can be caused by: Hyperalbuminemia is an increased concentration of albumin in the blood. Typically, this condition is due to dehydration. Hyperalbuminemia has also been associated with high protein diets. Human albumin solution or HSA is available for medical use, usually at concentrations of 5–25%. Human albumin is often used to replace lost fluid and help restore blood volume in
