[@ZeroToFinals]

Good luck!

[@bhavyavalli9545]

True! Most helpful

[@princessdiana2414]

[@marionhautea5134]

Been practicing for years it's always good to have a refresher to further hone one medical knowledge for our patients benefit

[@rockawo]

The last two days I´ve watched at least 3 more videos, listened a master class y reviewed my key concepts book. about Sodium and SIADH. This is the best video by far!!!. Than you so much!!! I really appreciate it!

[@shahadms6991]

I watched many videos and no one make hyponatremia this easy. Thank you!

[@benrussell3298]

Thank you - I must have had this explained to me at least half a dozen times, but this is the first time I've actually understood the subject! Well done!!

[@ZeroToFinals]

Thanks Ben! Glad to help

[@bukanahholly9629]

Dr Watchman all I can say is God bless you! Thank you for the hard works you put on your videos. I listen to your podcast on Spotify whenever I am going around or doing house chores. Thank you for making me to realise that I can still make my dreams come through after years of struggles and delays by God's grace. A nurse of more than a decade aspiring to get into medical school

[@obedbagona7402]

3rd year medical student here in the Philippines. Dr. Tom, your videos have been SUPER helpful, even the study tips in your other channel! God bless you and I hope you continue to make more videos!

[@beachguyla]

I had SIADH due to pituitary tumor, which caused severe hyponatremia with sodium of 103. This was helpful in understanding what happened to me! Thank you.

[@josephswisher8315]

Wow 103! Glad you’re safe

[@aleottobre2031]

Very clear explanation. I’ve studied this topic tons of times without really getting it; now I finally got to understand it. Many thanks. It’d be lovely to have a video about hypernatraemia too.

[@magn9688]

I am a Trainee Advanced Clinical Practitioner and I have been listening to your podcasts, using your book, and watching these videos for a few months now and I must say Dr. Thomas Watchman you are my guru. Thanks for all your hard work.

[@rachelleitch9029]

Super helpful resource. I'm trying to do my hyponatremia training for work as a nurse and bloody hate it. This has made it more barable and helped me understand a bit better

[@Os_-tw4ot]

This is really good, check out Biomed Sessions on this … they are also amazing! I feel like they covered everything you need to know 😍

[@ktay7847]

So glad I found this video. Very well explained and perfect for every single detail I needed to truly understand this concept! THANK YOU!

Good luck! I'm sure it'll go well!

[@jab376]

@@ZeroToFinals your osmolority formula at 1:57 is rounded, why? Wouldn't that skew the results of value and consequently your treatment options?

[@dr.sdghatak8424]

Serum Osmolality = 2 x Na + ( BUN/2.8 ) + (Glucose/18)

[@fahirafahad6895]

Omg this was so so good!! Thank you doctor!

[@dr.deepafonseka5038]

Love this explanation

[@mvskarthik9516]

Thanks a lot for the video, Very helpful!

[@amtm5645]

[@ZeroToFinals]

Haha thanks!

[@josephogavugyagenda1425]

Great content finely put to the learner. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

[@hanyaghazi8482]

Thank you the vid is so helpful! - When considering hyponatremia in a clinically edematous patient, why was urine osmolality not factored in?

[@duocphamtruongtho4462]

Its so helpful, thanks!

[@soumayaelyoussoufi8746]

Very helpful. Thank you very much.

easy to understand presentation. thank you so much

[@ZeroToFinals]

Thanks Liz. No problem

[@mustafaidankhalil]

Diabetes can lead to hyponatremia with normal plasma osmolarity and more rare high plasma osmolarity. The key is medical history and clinical findings of dehydration fx.

[@vaultinsight1017]

well explain this is the best video lecture ever

[@ZeroToFinals]

thanks!

[@FEDISFEDUP]

What are the examinations for checking the fluid status?

[@evapeng9322]

Good video, thank you very much

[@KonaSitkaRose]

So clear! Thank you!

[@lorib5398]

What if potassium and sodium are not in correct ratio 4:1?

[@nottellingyou14]

What is normal sodium in urine? Urine osmalality? I know serum values but no one gives urine values.

[@lullabylane-rj4mm]

The normal sodium level in urine can vary, but typically it ranges from 20 to 220 millimoles per liter (mmol/L)

[@imtheboss1826]

I'm here because I had hyponatremia st 121. Just got very confused and knew I was in trouble.

[@rahimanwa4318]

Thanks for the video 👌👌👌

[@The-Adventure-Lives-On]

Any chance you could do a hypernatraemia video too please? This video was so good!!

[@ZeroToFinals]

Thanks! I'll think about that, however, hypernatraemia almost always means dehydration as is a bit less complicated than hyponatraemia.

[@nehabisht525]

It ws very helpful.. thank you😊

[@Khalidgamer13225]

Just fantastic 👨‍⚕️

[@ZeroToFinals]

:D

[@aga5897]

It's a Maze. Also Amazing !

[@meryamlazrak1329]

thank you doc

[@emmarocheteau5788]

Do you only need to correct the hyponatraemia if it's a genuine one? I.e. only if the osmolality is low?

[@aalaaabduljalil8455]

You are amazing,thanks

[@maheen97]

amazing!! Subscribed

[@ankitparjapati9102]

excellent sir keep it up😊😊

[@silverstarlight9395]

Can you tell me about cerebral salt wasting?

[@Musaaaa653]

Is it wrong to include potassium also in the serum osmolality equation?

[@swapnakandi271]

Very helpful vedeo. Thank u sir

[@ZeroToFinals]

Glad to help

[@tokikani]

This was really helpful, thank you!

[@حيدرحميد-خ5ح]

Thanks, that was very helpful ❤❤❤

[@ZeroToFinals]

Great! Glad to help!

[@charlesonyeka3185]

Thanks 👍🏿

[@Abeermeditalks]

one more doubt . when there is dilutional hyponatremia ie. when gain of fluid , there should be hypervolemic hyponatremia right ?

[@ZeroToFinals]

that's correct, however the patient may not be oedematous if they are managing to keep the fluid mostly in the intravascular space

[@MrRuff-cc3lg]

Doctors have no idea why my muscles are spasming/twitching. Knowing that I have a history of low sodium though it is at 140 I drank 1 tbsp of salt in a pint of water and the spasm/twitches practically stopped. If this was drank within 5 minutes would it increase sodium levels too quickly and cause Central Pontine Myelinolysis? Thank you.
