Hyponatremia is a clinically relevant disorder. Ten to twenty per cent of patients in hospitals are affected by it. Hyponatremia is found to occur in almost every clinical department. Recently, vasopressin antagonists have been licensed to treat hyponatremia of the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). They provide physicians with the first specific and effective therapy of this hyponatremia. This opens up new avenues for clinical research into the symptoms, findings and consequences of hyponatremia.
低钠血症是一种具有临床相关性的疾病。10%至 20%的住院患者受其影响。低钠血症几乎可见于每一个临床科室。最近，加压素拮抗剂已获准用于治疗抗利尿激素分泌不当综合征（SIADH）引起的低钠血症。它们为医生提供了这种低钠血症的第一种特异性和有效的治疗方法。这为研究低钠血症的症状、发现和后果开辟了新的临床研究途径。
