Evaluating Hyponatremia and ADH Stimulation

The speakers discuss the evaluation of hyponatremia, focusing on assessing volume status and determining the appropriateness of ADH stimulation. They highlight the significance of vital signs, weight, and urine sodium in differentiating between hypovolemia, euvolemia, and hypervolemia. The chapter concludes with a discussion on clinical presentation and determining whether to give more volume or consider SIADH based on improvement in serum sodium.
