Solve hypernatremia with tips and tactics from Dr. Joel Topf, MD (@kidney_boy), our Kashlak Chief of Nephrology. We review the diagnostic workup for hypernatremia, polydipsia and polyuria, review the pathophysiology of diabetes insipidus, and how to differentiate between nephrogenic and central DI. Plus, we walk through how to treat hypernatremia in the acute setting and Dr. Topf shares clinical pearls on why hypernatremia is the opposite of hyponatremia… It’s easy!
