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.
The distinction between acute and chronic hyponatremia is made to alert the clinician to the clinical consequences associated with the timing of the cerebral response to hyponatremia.
