NCT06061783

Brief Summary

Hypernatremia, defined as an elevation of serum sodium \>145 mEq/L, is one of the most common electrolyte disturbances in hospitalized patients and intensive care units. In this study, the investigator aims, for the first time, to compare two strategies used for the correction of hypernatremia, using intravenous hypotonic solution compared to naso- or orogastric tube enteral water.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The efficiency of intravenous hypotonic solution for the correction of hypernatremia compared with enteral water.

    Correction of hypernatremia is \<145mEq/L serum sodium

    every 12 hours during the first 48hrs of treatment and then every 24 hours for the first 5 days of the study.

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • mortality

    the first 5 days of the study

  • renal function

    the first 5 days of the study

  • volume overload

    the first 5 days of the study

  • neurological alterations

    the first 5 days of the study

Other Outcomes (1)

  • hyperglycemia, glucose >180mg/dL

    the first 5 days of the study

Study Arms (2)

Intravenous hypotonic solution

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

In this group, the administration will be according to the presence of basal hyperglycemia on the day before the assignment (\>180mg/dL). If hyperglycemia is present, it will be glucose solution 5% 500ml + injectable water 500ml intravenous every 8 hours for a total of 3,600ml daily. If there is no hyperglycemia, it will be 5% glucose solution 1,200ml every 8 hours for a total of 3,600ml per day.

Drug: Hypotonic Solution

Enteral water

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

This group will receive bottled water through the nasogastric or orogastric tube at a dose of 150 ml/hour for a total of 3,600 ml per day.

Drug: Water Purified

Interventions

Intravenous administration of 5% glucose solution 1,200ml every 8 hours for a total of 3,600ml per day. If hyperglycemia is present, it will be glucose solution 5% 500ml + injectable water 500ml intravenous every 8 hours for a total of 3,600ml daily.

Intravenous hypotonic solution

administration of bottled water through the nasogastric or orogastric tube at a dose of 150 ml/hour for a total of 3,600 ml per day.

Enteral water
