Markers and Algorithms for Assessing Hydration Status

The chronic representation of hydration involves sodium, red blood cell, hemoglobin, and hematocrit levels, with the addition of albumin for chronic dehydration. Elevated levels of these markers indicate acute or chronic dehydration. Additionally, markers like blood urea nitrogen and creatinine are less sensitive due to their association with protein metabolism. Serum osmolarity, with a standardized reference range of 285 to 295 and an optimal range of 288 to 292, is a gold standard algorithm for assessing hydration status.
