Difference of DI and SIADH
FEATURE DIABETES INSIPIDUS (DI) (SIADH)
• POLYURIA
• POLYPHAGIA
Management:
Central DI: Desmopressin (synthetic ADH) is
used to replace the missing hormone.
Nephrogenic DI: Treatment focuses on
managing the underlying cause and may include
the use of thiazide diuretics, low-salt diet, and
sometimes prostaglandin inhibitors to help the
kidneys concentrate urine.
Dipsogenic DI: Managed with fluid restriction
and addressing the underlying cause.
Gestational DI: Treated with desmopressin
Syndrome of
nappropriate Antidiuretic
Hormone Secretion
(SIADH)
DEFINITION
Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic
Hormone Secretion:
• A condition characterized by
excessive secretion of
antidiuretic hormone (ADH),
leading to water retention and
hyponatremia.
SIGN AND SYMPTOMS:
Hallmark: Hyponatremia
Management:
Mild Hyponatremia:
• Fluid restriction
• Moderate to Severe Hyponatremia:
• Fluid restriction
• Hypertonic saline administration
• Diuretics (e.g., loop diuretics)
Underlying Cause Treatment:
Addressing underlying conditions like lung cancer,
brain tumors, or medications
Management:
Mild Hyponatremia:
• Fluid restriction
• Moderate to Severe Hyponatremia:
• Fluid restriction
• Hypertonic saline administration
• Diuretics (e.g., loop diuretics)
Underlying Cause Treatment:
Addressing underlying conditions like lung cancer,
brain tumors, or medications
Nursing Intervention:
• Assessment:
-Monitor for neurological changes, fluid intake and
output, and electrolyte levels.
• Fluid Restriction:
-Restrict fluid intake as prescribed.
• Medication Administration:
-Administer diuretics or hypertonic saline as ordered.
Safety Measures:
-Implement fall precautions due to potential neurological
changes.
Patient Education:
- Educate the patient and family about the condition,
treatment plan, and the importance of fluid restriction.
Health Teaching:
