Clinically significant hyponatremia is relatively uncommon and is nonspecific in its presentation; therefore, the physician must consider the diagnosis in patients presenting with vague constitutional symptoms or with altered level of consciousness.
Hyponatremia is commonly defined as a serum sodium concentration below 135 meq/L but can vary to a small degree in different clinical laboratories [1,2]. The dilutional fall in serum sodium is in most patients associated with a proportional reduction in the serum osmolality (ie, to a level below 275 mosmol/kg), but there are some exceptions.
