Overview
Effective measures for the primary prevention of hypernatremia include an increase in water intake during increased insensible water losses. A low-sodium diet will reduce oral solute intake and therefore decrease renal water loss.
Primary Prevention
Effective measures for the primary prevention of hypernatremia include:[1][2]
- Increase in water intake during increased insensible water losses
- A low-sodium diet will reduce oral solute intake and therefore decrease renal water loss.
- Urine output should be monitored in patients with renal insufficiency and the inability to drink water.
- Basic metabolic profile should be monitored for electrolytes in patients with urinary losses and should be replaced adequately.
- Adequate water intake is encouraged in patients who are immobile and in patients with impaired thirst.
- Increased water intake is recommended in patients with fever.
