Hyponatremia in patients admitted to a coronary care unit

JR Evans, JP McIntosh, HJ McIntosh and PE Mitchell
Department of Biochemical Medicine, Stracathro Hospital, Brechin, Scotland, U.K.

Calculation of osmolal gap in plasma and urine samples from patients after acute myocardial infarction was carried out to see whether changes in these variables support the concept of a "sick-cell" mechanism being responsible for the hyponatremia associated with acute myocardial infarction. Some supportive evidence was found on the first day after admission but, overall, the evidence was not convincing.
