Intraoperative Use of Desmopressin for Treatment of Profound Hyponatremia in the Setting of Emergency Surgery: A Case Report.
Correction of profound hyponatremia requires careful planning and close monitoring to reduce the risks of neurologic injury. Although there are various suggested treatment strategies in the setting of a medical ward or intensive care unit, reports of intraoperative management to prevent rapid increases in serum sodium are lacking. We present a case of profound hyponatremia of 102 mmol/L in a patient who required emergent operative repair for bowel obstruction. This is the first case to our knowledge that demonstrates a perioperative fluid and desmopressin treatment strategy to prevent overly rapid changes of sodium concentration in a patient with severe hyponatremia.
