[Oxytocin and syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic neonatal hormone. Case report of early severe hyponatremia and literature review].
    Ginecologia y obstetricia de Mexico, 2010, Volume: 78, Issue:12

    This is a clinical case presentation of a full term newborn infant who suffered severe hyponatremia and early seizures, associated with maternal fluid overload with electrolyte free solutions and high doses of oxytocin for labor augmentation. Although this condition has been recognized since the 1960's with isolated reports, this particular case has features that needs further investigation, not only for the unsually severe hyponatremia, but most importantly we think, for the prominent signs of fluid retention, the infant had, that suggest excessive antidiuretic activity probably due to oxytocin. These findings are consistent with syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone. Although until now there is no proof that oxytocin by itself produces this syndrome. We think the association is possible in certain clinical circumstances, such as those found in this case. We also, briefly discussed the pathophysiology of perinatal hyponatremia, the neonatal treatment of this condition and the current guidelines for the women in labor. Hyponatremia should not be considered a benign condition, since in the neonate, it may affect brain function.

Water intoxication-a dangerous condition in labor and delivery rooms.
    Obstetrical & gynecological survey, 2007, Volume: 62, Issue:11

    Water intoxication, a form of acute hyponatremia, has been described in various clinical situations. Although hyponatremia is a common metabolic disorder in hospitalized patients, it is generally not well known as a hazard in the labor and delivery room. However, several factors predispose laboring women to develop hyponatremia. Moreover, because the fetus acquires water from the maternal circulation via the placenta, and there is a close correlation between maternal and cord blood serum sodium levels, the newborn infant of a hyponatremic mother is also at considerable risk of developing water intoxication. We review the epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical features, and treatment of this hazardous disorder. We emphasize the need for awareness of this condition, and call attention to the risk of fluid overload during labor.

[Pregnancy in diabetes insipidus--a case report with review of the literature].
    Zentralblatt fur Gynakologie, 1990, Volume: 112, Issue:12

    A 32 year old I P II G with preexisting diabetes insipidus was treated with 1-(3-mercaptopropionic acid)-8-d-arginine vasopressin (DDAVP) during pregnancy. An otherwise normal pregnancy was marked only with an excessive weight increase. A healthy girl was delivered by secondary cesarean section at term. Postoperative the mother developed a water intoxication accompanying oxytocin-infusion. During nursing the diabetes insipidus improved significantly whereby DDAVP doses could be reduced to 20-10 percent. We suppose an overreaction to endogene oxytocin with an antidiuretic effect.

[Water intoxication following oxytocin perfusion].
    Journal de gynecologie, obstetrique et biologie de la reproduction, 1983, Volume: 12, Issue:1

    The authors report a case of water intoxication in a woman who received 140 I.U. of oxytocin in 3 litres of glucose serum in 15 hours to induce a therapeutic abortion. This water intoxication led to loss of consciousness with increase in weight and hyponatraemia. The treatment consisted in restricting fluid intake, giving sodium and 20% Mannitol. A short review of the literature with an explanation of the physiopathology is given. This is the antidiuretic action of oxytocin when it is given with too much fluid without electrolytes.

Water intoxication in the course of stimulation of labor with oxytocin.
    Ginekologia polska, 2021, Volume: 92, Issue:7

    The antidiuretic attribute of oxytocin can cause many side effects. Water intoxication is one of the most serious complications. The authors describe a case of water intoxication with neurological symptoms and severe hyponatraemia in the course of natural labor stimulated by oxytocin in a low-dose regimen.

Acute pulmonary oedema following oxytocin administration: a life threatening complication.
    Journal of the Indian Medical Association, 2006, Volume: 104, Issue:5

    Water Intoxication is not a common complication of oxytocin infusion. A 26 years primigravida developed acute onset severe pulmonary oedema in postpartum period to whom oxytocin was infused for the induction of labour and to prevent postpartum haemorrhage. The relative role of oxytocin and of electrolyte-free fluids in the pathogenesis of this problem is discussed.

[Acute water intoxication after prolonged infusion of oxytocin].
    Journal de gynecologie, obstetrique et biologie de la reproduction, 1987, Volume: 16, Issue:4

    The authors report a case of acute water intoxication with severe neurological features which complicated prolonged administration of oxytocin for post-partum hemorrhage. The patient was a 35-year-old woman with a tight mitral stenosis. The patient recovered consciousness after the hydro-electrolytic state had been put right. The precautions that have to be undertaken and the monitoring that is necessary to avoid hyponatraemia with water retention are reviewed. It is important to know the risk factors which are connected with this treatment and how certain abnormal conditions of the heart can play a role in causing this syndrome.

Water intoxication and hyponatremic encephalopathy from the use of an oxytocin nasal spray. A case report.
    The Journal of reproductive medicine, 1985, Volume: 30, Issue:3

    Many nursing women returning to a full-time job and desiring to continue to breast feed are using oxytocin nasal sprays to facilitate breast emptying during the work day. Very few complications have been reported from its use, and the preparation has been assumed to be innocuous. However, we encountered a nursing mother whose life appears to have been jeopardized by the excessive and unmonitored application of such a spray. The patient was hospitalized for a viral illness and given a large quantity of intravenous fluid. In association with excessive self-administration of an oxytocin nasal spray, she developed severe water intoxication, with hyponatremic encephalopathy and convulsions. During the same hospitalization the patient subsequently developed a Guillain-Barré type of peripheral polyneuritis. The syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone has been reported to accompany the neurologic manifestations of the Guillain-Barré syndrome and may have been the cause of the convulsions. However, the temporal associations in this case strongly favor the unmonitored use of the oxytocin nasal spray as etiologic.

[Acute water intoxication induced by oxytocin].
    Annales francaises d'anesthesie et de reanimation, 1985, Volume: 4, Issue:5

    A new case of oxytocin-induced water intoxication is reported in a 30 year old gravid woman. The severe symptoms of this uncommon complication are principally neurological; biological signs are a hyponatraemia with low plasma osmolality. Usually, biological and clinical signs are rapidly cleared up by treatment, but maternal death or neonatal water intoxication may occur. Such accidents must be prevented by clinical monitoring, watching out for alarm signals (oliguria is always found, resulting from the effect of oxytocin on the kidney), minimum fluid and proportional salt intakes, careful monitoring of oxytocin infusion rates, facilitated by the use of a constant flow-rate pump.

Iatrogenic hyponatraemia of the newborn due to maternal fluid overload: a prospective study.
    British medical journal (Clinical research ed.), 1981, Sep-05, Volume: 283, Issue:6292

    Over five weeks 136 out of 246 deliveries were studied. Maternal plasma sodium concentrations were normal at admission. At delivery no significant difference was found between maternal and infant cord plasma sodium concentrations. Twenty-four of the 41 mothers who had received only oral fluids during labour had infants whose cord plasma sodium concentrations were normal. Of the 95 mothers who had been given intravenous fluids, however, only 14 infants with normal plasma sodium concentrations, 31 had a concentrations of 130 mmol (mEq)/1 or less and nine of these had a concentration of 125 mmol/1 or less. There was a highly significant inverse relation between cord plasma sodium concentration and rate of fluid administration, suggesting that hyponatraemia was due to intravenous treatment with predominantly sodium-free solutions. Endogenous antidiuretic activity probably increases during labour, and synthetic oxytocin in large doses has been shown to have an antidiuretic effect. The dose used in this study did not appear to have such an effect. Glucose solutions are often used as a vehicle for oxytocin; 83% of all fluid intake in this study was 5% or 10% glucose in water. Fluid balance in labour should be supervised closely, and oxytocin should be given in a more concentrated solution.

Water intoxication after oxytocin-induced midtrimester abortion.
    The New Zealand medical journal, 1979, Apr-25, Volume: 89, Issue:634

    Two cases of water intoxication assoicated with midtrimester induction of abortion with oxytocin are presented. Both patients recovered from this potentially fatal condition which is associated with acute hyponatraemia. Some of the pertinent literature is reviewed and the possible mechanisms of causation and measures for prevention and treatment are discussed.. Water intoxication during or following oxytocin induced labor, albeit a rare event, can nevertheless cause potentially fatal complications or risk of neurological damage. Large doses of oxytocin plus large volumes of electrolyte-free solutions are the prime factors associated with water intoxication. Suggested treatment consists of hypertonic saline. Although circulatory overload and pulmonary oedema can occur from saline treatment it is believed that the risk of cerebral oedema is greater than risk from saline treatment. Prevention of water intoxication includes: 1) restriction of fluid intake; 2) monitoring of analgesia given; 3) interruption of continuous infusion; 4) fluid balance with control of serum electrolytes and osmolality; and 5) use of electrolyte-containing fluid as a vehicle for the oxytocin.

[Studies of the induction of diuresis increase and water intoxication induced diuresis inhibition by oxytocin and vasopressin in lactating cattle].
    Archiv fur experimentelle Veterinarmedizin, 1979, Volume: 33, Issue:4

    Intravenous injection of 20 International Units (IU) of oxytocin in the form of synthetic oxytocin or neurohypophyseal extract preparations to dehydrated cows that had already undergone twelve hours of water withdrawal did not produce antidiuresis but rather rise of diuresis accompanied by saluretic effects. Increase in diuresis occurred also in hyperhydrated cows, following water application, provided that oxytocin or vasopressin preparations had caused antidiuresis and saluresis and, consequently, changed urine composition to osmotic pressures beyond the limit values between 650 and 750 mosmol/kg. Rehydration of cow may be associated with retardation of diuresis by four hours or more. If oxytocin or vasopressin are given in the phase of such rehydration, the period between water application and the onset of water diuresis may be defined as "blocked water diuresis". Continuous infusion of 0.34 or 0.8 IU of oxytocin per minute up to 3.5 hours did not cause water intoxication in hyperhydrated cows, though blood plasma values for osmotic pressure had dropped to 244 mosmol/kg, while Na+ concentration had gone down to 116 mmol/l.

Water intoxication associated with oxytocin administration during saline-induced abortion.
    American journal of obstetrics and gynecology, 1975, Jan-01, Volume: 121, Issue:1

    Four cases of water intoxication in connection with oxytocin administration during saline-induced abortions are described. The mechanism of water intoxication is discussed in regard to these cases. Oxytocin administration during midtrimester-induced abortions is advocated only if it can be carried out under careful observations of an alert nursing staff, aware of the symptoms of water intoxication and instructed to watch the diuresis and report such early signs of the syndrome as asthenia, muscular irritability, or headaches. The oxytocin should be given only in Ringers lactate or, alternately, in Ringers lactate and a 5 per cent dextrose and water solutions. The urinary output should be monitored and the oxytocin administration discontinued and the serum electrolytes checked if the urinary output decreases. The oxytocin should not be administered in excess of 36 hours. If the patient has not aborted by then the oxytocin should be discontinued for 10 to 12 hours in order to perform electrolyte determinations and correct any electrolyte imbalance.

Absence of antidiuresis during administration of prostaglandin F2 alpha.
    British medical journal, 1970, Apr-18, Volume: 2, Issue:5702

    Water diuresis was induced in six patients in mid-pregnancy. Three were then given oxytocin and the remainder prostaglandin F(2)alpha (PGF(2)alpha), both drugs being infused intravenously in doses used to induce labour at term. Pronounced antidiuresis occurred with oxytocin, whereas PGF(2)alpha showed no such effect. The probable absence of any risk of water intoxication when using PGF(2)alpha in inducing labour may be of particular value when maternal pre-eclampsia or renal disease is present.
