Some people with severe congestive heart failure may require fluid restriction. Basically, two cups (one pint or about 500 cc) of fluid will equal roughly one pound of fluid weight gain.
The hypothesis is that strict fluid restriction leads to a larger increase in plasma sodium than standard treatment in patients with decompensated heart failure associated with hyponatremia. A secondary hypothesis is that the neurohormonal change is greater in patients treated with strict fluid restriction versus standard treatment.
