More Math for Doctors
(3% Saline for Symptomatic Hyponatremia)
Calculate how many mmols/L your serum Na+
will increase if you dumped 1 liter of 3% into
your TBW.
1 mmol/L/hour
So: 1 mmol/L/hour x 4 hours = 4 mmols/L increase
at the end of 4 hours will need:
4 mmols divided by 99.88 mmol/L = 00.4
4 L of 3%
saline or 0.1 L/hour : 100 cc/hour x 4 hours. ‘

3% Hypertonic Saline Made
Ridiculously Simple
• Use only if there are neurological sxs.
• Infuse at rate of: 1-2 ml/kg/hr, or roughly
100 ml/ hour for 4 hours.
• Check sodium every hour for first 4 hour.
• Stop infusion when Neuro Sxs resolve.

or seizures.
• Typical laboratory findings … a very dilute urine.
• We propose that the pivotal pathophysiologic
mechanism in beer potomania syndrome is the minimal
intake of solute and the hypoosmolality of the beer
ingested. This will lead to the inability to excrete
sufficient amounts of free water to keep up with the
ingestion of large quantities of the hyposmolar beer.
• Treatment with isotonic sodium chloride results in the
rapid clearance of the accumulated excess free water.
