It is difficult to clinically distinguish SIADH from volume depletion in hyponatremic patients without edema, with correct prediction occurring in only around 40% of cases. The gold standard for diagnosis is the sodium response to fluid challenge. A urine sodium less than 30 mmol/L favors SIADH, but this can miss salt depletion in elderly patients. A fractional excretion of sodium less than 0.5% identifies patients with salt depletion but misclassifies around half of SIADH cases. Combined fractional excretion of sodium less than 0.5% and urea less than 55% may best differentiate SIADH from salt depletion.

15. Acute oliguric renal failure in mannitol
poisoning may be due to a combination of
mannitol-induced renal
vasoconstriction and direct
tubular toxicity. As mannitol is
excreted exclusively by the kidney, its
accumulation in renal failure will further
worsen renal function, thus making
prompt hemodialysis the most
appropriate treatment in such a
circumstance.
