Résumé

Hospital-acquired hyponatremia remains a feared event in patients receiving hypotonic fluid therapy. Our objectives were to assess post-operative plasma-sodium concentration and to provide a physiological explanation for plasma-sodium levels over time in children with acute appendicitis. Thirteen normonatremic (plasma-sodium ≥135 mmol/L) children (8 males), median age 12.3 (IQR 11.5-13.5) years participated in this prospective observational study (ACTRN12621000587808). Urine was collected and analyzed. Blood tests, including renin, aldosterone, arginine-vasopressin, and circulating nitric oxide substrates were determined on admission, at induction of anesthesia, and at the end of surgery. On admission, participants were assumed to be mildly dehydrated and were prescribed 50 mL/kg of Ringer's acetate intravenously followed by half-isotonic saline as maintenance fluid therapy. Blood tests, urinary indices, plasma levels of aldosterone, arginine-vasopressin, and net water-electrolyte balance indicated that participants were dehydrated on admission. Although nearly 50% of participants still had arginine-vasopressin levels that would have been expected to produce maximum antidiuresis at the end of surgery, electrolyte-free water clearance indicated that almost all participants were able to excrete net free water. No participant became hyponatremic. The use of moderately hypotonic fluid therapy after correction of extracellular fluid deficit is not necessarily associated with post-operative hyponatremia. Our observations show that in acutely ill normonatremic children not only the composition but also the amount of volume infused influence on the risk of hyponatremia. Our observations also suggest that perioperative administration of hypotonic fluid therapy is followed by a tendency towards hyponatremia if extracellular fluid depletion is left untreated. After correcting extracellular deficit almost all patients were able to excrete net free water. This occurred despite nearly 50% of the cohort having high circulating plasma levels of arginine-vasopressin at the end of surgery, suggesting a phenomenon of renal escape from arginine-vasopressin-induced antidiuresis.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Hospital-acquired hyponatremia remains a feared event in patients receiving hypotonic fluid therapy. Our objectives were to assess post-operative plasma-sodium concentration and to provide a physiological explanation for plasma-sodium levels over time in children with acute appendicitis.
METHODS METHODS
Thirteen normonatremic (plasma-sodium ≥135 mmol/L) children (8 males), median age 12.3 (IQR 11.5-13.5) years participated in this prospective observational study (ACTRN12621000587808). Urine was collected and analyzed. Blood tests, including renin, aldosterone, arginine-vasopressin, and circulating nitric oxide substrates were determined on admission, at induction of anesthesia, and at the end of surgery.
RESULTS RESULTS
On admission, participants were assumed to be mildly dehydrated and were prescribed 50 mL/kg of Ringer's acetate intravenously followed by half-isotonic saline as maintenance fluid therapy. Blood tests, urinary indices, plasma levels of aldosterone, arginine-vasopressin, and net water-electrolyte balance indicated that participants were dehydrated on admission. Although nearly 50% of participants still had arginine-vasopressin levels that would have been expected to produce maximum antidiuresis at the end of surgery, electrolyte-free water clearance indicated that almost all participants were able to excrete net free water. No participant became hyponatremic.
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
The use of moderately hypotonic fluid therapy after correction of extracellular fluid deficit is not necessarily associated with post-operative hyponatremia.
IMPACT CONCLUSIONS
Our observations show that in acutely ill normonatremic children not only the composition but also the amount of volume infused influence on the risk of hyponatremia. Our observations also suggest that perioperative administration of hypotonic fluid therapy is followed by a tendency towards hyponatremia if extracellular fluid depletion is left untreated. After correcting extracellular deficit almost all patients were able to excrete net free water. This occurred despite nearly 50% of the cohort having high circulating plasma levels of arginine-vasopressin at the end of surgery, suggesting a phenomenon of renal escape from arginine-vasopressin-induced antidiuresis.
