Can you drink too much water?
In this podcast Drs. Blaine, Ambruso and Young discuss a case of a young man who presents with a serum Na of 120meq/L. Listen as they take you through how they approach a case of hyponatremia.
Please not there is an addendum at the end of the case, because there was an error in the urine parameters. It is not possible to have a Uosm of 75 and Una of 100. The osmolality has to be higher if the Una is 100. The Una should have been lower (15-25)
