Study of Hyponatremia in Cirrhosis of Liver & It’s Prognostic value

Abstract: Dilutional Hyponatremia associated with liver cirrhosis is caused by impaired free water clearance. Sever studies have shown serum sodium level correlate with survival in cirrhotic patients. Low serum sodium concentration is an independent predictor of mortality in patients of cirrhosis, but prevalence and clinical signification is unclear. Little is known regarding the relationship between the degree of dilutional hyponatremia [1] and development in cirrhosis and evaluate the association between the serum sodium level and severity of complication in cirrhosis and its prognostic significance.
