Severe hyponatremia with hypoosmolality carries a high morbidity and mortality and constitues a life-threatening emergency. Seven cases of severe hyponatremia (serum Na concentration 99.7 .+-. 3.0 meq/l) (mean .+-. SEM [SE of mean]) were reported with hypoosmolality (212 .+-. 8 mOsm[milliosmole]/kg water) that was presented with severe neurologic complications. Serum Na concentration was corrected in 13.3 .+-. 2.2 h to mildly hyponatremic levels (serum Na concentration 128.3 .+-. 1.6 meq/l). The rate of correction of serum Na concentration was 2.4 .+-. 0.5 meq/l per h. This was achieved by the i.v. administration of 3% hypertonic saline solution (687 .+-. 43 meq NaCl) and furosemide, or by hemodialysis where indicated. No complications occurred from treatment and all of the patients recovered without neurologic sequelae. Early diagnosis and rapid correction of serum Na concentration appear to reduce the significant morbidity and mortality of severe hyponatremia.
