Water Load Test Value for Hyponatremia

Completed
Conditions
SIAD - Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuresis
Hyponatremia
Interventions
Procedure: Acute water load test
Registration Number
NCT04256499
Lead Sponsor
European Georges Pompidou Hospital
Brief Summary

Acute water load test has been using to diagnose renal ability to excrete water for decades. Latest recommendations for the diagnosis of hyponatremia do not recommend performing such a test. The investigators aim at, retrospectively, study the value of acute water load test in patients suffering from a syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis.
