Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will investigate efficacy and safety of rapid intermittent correction compared with slow continuous correction with hypertonic saline in patient with moderately severe or severe symptomatic severe hyponatremia

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Moderate to severe symptomatic hyponatremia requires prompt treatment with hypertonic saline. The extent and rate of increase in serum sodium (sNa) levels during treatment are critical. Several methods for continuous infusion of hypertonic saline were used to guide rate of fluid administered to achieve the required serum sodium target. As based on static model, they had a bias to over-correction of hyponatremia. Alternative approach to treatment with hypertonic fluid is to use small, fixed boluses to achieve controlled increments in sNa. However, there was no high quality evidence on whether hypertonic saline are best given in continuous infusion (preferred by most) or bolus injection. The aim of present study, a multi-center (Seoul National University Bundang Hospital \[2016.8\~\], Seoul National University Boramae Medical Center \[2016. 9\~\], Hallym University Dongtan Sacred Heart Hospital \[2017.7\~\]), randomized, open labelled, controlled clinical trial, is to investigate efficacy and safety of rapid intermittent correction compared with slow continuous correction with hypertonic saline in patient with moderately severe or severe symptomatic severe hyponatremia. A total 178 patients, who suffer from symptomatic severe hyponatremia, will be enrolled and randomly assigned to receive either intermittent bolus infusion or slow continuous infusion by 3% hypertonic saline. Subjects will take different rate of 3% hypertonic saline for 24-48 hours stratified by severity of clinical symptoms. Serum sodium will be measured at every six hours during two days.

\<additional treatment\> Repeat 3% saline 2ml/kg over 20min at every sample time point (at 1/6hr) till Na 5-9 mmol/L inc from initial Na and sx relief

\<\<During 6-24hr\>\>

\- Moderately Severe or Severe

: Repeat 3% saline 2ml/kg over 20min at every sample time point(at 12/18/24hr) till Na 5-9 mmol/L inc from initial Na and sx relief

* Moderately Severe or Severe : Repeat 3% saline 2ml/kg over 20min at every sample time point (at 30/36/42/48hr) till Na 10-17 mmol/L inc from initial Na or Na ≥ 130mmol and sx relief

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

3% hypertonic saline

Intervention Type DRUG

slow continuous infusion group

\<\<Within 24hr\>\>

\- Moderately Severe: 3% saline 0.5ml/kg/hr (unknown bwt 25ml/hr)

if △ Na inc ≥0.5mmol/hr or △ Na inc ≥ 3mmol/6hr

: maintain infusion rate

\<\<During 24-48hr\>\>

\- Moderately Severe and Severe

if △ Na inc \<1.5mmol/6hr

: add 0.25ml/kg/hr or restart 0.25ml/kg/hr if previously stopped

if △ Na inc ≥ 1.5mmol/6hr

: maintain infusion rate
