Hyponatremia in Heart Failure
Journal of Intensive Care Medicine, 10/26/09
Chatterjee K – The treatment of significant hyponatremia in heart failure is difficult. The conventional treatments such as fluid restriction, infusion of hypertonic saline, and aggressive diuretic therapies are not usually effective. Vasopressin receptor antagonists have been shown to enhance aquaresis and correct hyponatremia. However, long–term beneficial effects of such treatments in chronic heart failure have not been documented.
