Avoiding ODS in Patients With Chronic HN Population at risk: HN with [Na+]≤120 mmol/L of >48 h duration, eg, thiazide, typical SIADH Accommodation to HN complete; at risk for ODS Increased vigilance in patients at high risk for ODS [Na+]≤105 mmol/L Alcoholism, malnutrition, hypokalemia, advanced liver disease Minimum correction: 4-8 mmol/L per 24 h; 4-6 mmol/L if ODS risk elevated Limits not to exceed: 10-12 mmol/L in any 24 h, 18 mmol/L in any 48 h with normal ODS risk 8 mmol/L in any 24 h if ODS risk elevated Verbalis JG et al.

Hypertonic Saline (3%) 513 mEq/L of Sodium and 513 mEq/L of Chloride (Total of 1026 mOsm/L) Administration will add NaCl to the body, but it will increase body tonicity and move water from the intracellular fluid compartment to extracellular fluid compartment.

Hypertonic Saline (3%) 513 mEq/L of Sodium and 513 mEq/L of Chloride (Total of 1026 mOsm/L) Administration will add NaCl to the body, but it will increase body tonicity and move water from the intracellular fluid compartment to extracellular fluid compartment. In the absence of urinary water loss… 1 ml/kg/hr of 3% saline will increase serum sodium by about 1 mmol/L each hour. For a 70kg woman, 70ml/hr of 3% saline 12 mmol over 12 hours OR 35 ml/hr of 3% saline will increase by 6 mmol over 12 hours.
Slide 25-

Symptomatic Acute Hyponatremia For severe sx, 100 mL of 3% NaCl infused IV over 10 minutes; repeat x 2 as needed For mild to moderate sx with a low risk of herniation, 3% NaCl infused at 0.5-2 mL/kg/h Anticipate that 3% NaCl infused at 1 mL/kg/h will raise [Na+] approximately 1 mmol/L/h Measure [Na+] every 2 hours; all formulae are approximations Rate of correction need not be limited if HN known to be acute; otherwise observe chronic HN daily correction limit Verbalis JG et al.

Desmopressin Replacement of urinary water loss with D5W Starting dose: Desmopressin 2 mcg iv If NO response: Desmopressin 4 mcg iv Strategy I: Desmopressin 2 mcg q6-8h AND infusion of low dose hypertonic saline (10 – 30 mL/hour) Strategy II: Desmopressin 2 mcg once and repeat prn to avoid excessive increase in serum Na

PD Associated Peritonitis
Slide 29-

Case 60 yo man ESRD on PD with abdominal pain and vomiting for two days. VS with fever at 100.8 F, abdomen distended and diffusely tender without guarding or rebound. WBC 8.7, lac 1.9, fluid cell ct 774 (99% neutrophils), fluid gram stain GPCPC Given IV Vancomycin, Cefotaxime. Later started IP Vancomycin and Ceftazadime.
Slide 30-

Hospital Day 2 Abdominal pain worsened and developed worsening distention and mild guarding. WBC 21.5, lac 2.6, fluid cell ct 3,958. Antibiotic coverage was broadened by adding IV Flagyl and Fluconazole. CT A/P preliminarily read as mild ileus.
Slide 31-

Hospital Day 3 Abdominal pain persisted, exam unimproved. WBC 16, lac 1.6. Original fluid culture updated to S. Viridans and mixed anaerobes. Final CT result: “Probable acute appendicitis. No peri-appendiceal abscess. Small loculated collection along the peritoneal dialysis catheter within the subcutaneous fat.” Intra-operatively found rupture appendix; underwent appendectomy, washout and Tenckhoff catheter removal.
Slide 32-

“Surgical” Peritonitis In PD Uncommon and/or under-reported and/or goes undiagnosed. Retrospective chart analysis at one institution of 133 PD patients with peritonitis of any cause between 2004 and 2006 revealed 6 surgical causes1. Another similar study between 1990 and 1998 also revealed 6 cases2. 1. Yehia, M, et al.

Diagnostic Dilemmas Presence of free air on KUB is unreliable. Presentation atypical and non-localizeable. Partial treatment causes protracted course of symptoms and delays cultures. CT may be less sensitive.

Case 60 yo man ESRD on PD with abdominal pain which started this morning 4 hours after dialysis was completed. Patients last fill is with 2.5% dextrose, 1.8 liters. VS normal, abdomen mildly tender without guarding, very significant rebound. WBC 8.7, lac 0.3, fluid cell ct 7380 (97% neutrophils), fluid gram stain yields no organism Given IP Vancomycin and Cefotaxime as “midday” exchange at 3:30pm, CCPD was resumed at 10:00 pm. On day two the pain and rebound has substantially improved, fluid cell ct 560. Culture yield GPC. Later that week – Staph epi

Peritonitis Clinical diagnosis: Abdominal pain and cloudy fluid. Diagnostic criteria: Cell count with WBC > 100/μL (after a dwell time of at least 2 hours), with at least 50% polymorpho- nuclear neutrophilic cells. Presumtive diagnosis: bacterial PD associated peritonitis. Peritoneal Dialysis Int, 30: 393-423, 2010

Volatile Alcohols
Slide 40-

Volatile Alcohols Methanol, ethylene glycol, and isopropanol or isopropyl alcohol are commonly referred to as the toxic alcohols Methanol: windshield washer fluid and many industrial solvents Ethylene glycol: constituent of antifreeze Isopropanol: rubbing alcohol- antiseptic Easily accessible regardless of whether ingestion is intentional or accidental (eg, when a child ingests the poison) Volatile alcohols affect the anion gap and the osmolar gap.
Slide 41-

Anion Gap versus Osmolar Gap Anion Gap: Na+ – (Cl- + HCO2-) = around 12 Osmolar Gap: Osmmeassured – Osmcalculated = Osmgap Osmcalculated = 2xNa + Glucose + Urea (all in mmol/L) OR 2xNa + (Glucose/18) + (Urea/2.8) (if Na is in mmol/L and Glucose and BUN are measured in mg/dL).

Anion Gap HAGMA – caused by the gain of acid NAGMA – caused by the loss of HCO3-

Osmolar Gap Osmmeassured Osmcalculated OG Osmcalculated EOG OG – Solutes (in mosm/L) not accounted for in the estimation EOG – Presence of unexpected solutes (in mosm/L) like volatile alcohols
Slide 44-

Volatile Alcohols Methanol, ethylene glycol, and isopropanol are commonly referred to as the toxic alcohols Methanol: windshield washer fluid and many industrial solvents Ethylene glycol: constituent of antifreeze Isopropanol: rubbing alcohol- antiseptic Easily accessible regardless of whether ingestion is intentional or accidental (eg, when a child ingests the poison) Methanol and ethylene glycol produce a metabolic acidosis with an increased osmolal gap Isopropanol rapidly metabolizes to acetone, also produces an increased osmolal gap but does not produce a metabolic acidosis unless concomitant hypotension causes lactic acidosis
