About this study

Official title: Correction of Hypernatremia by Intravenous Hypotonic Solution Compared to Enteral Water, Randomized Clinical Trial

Hypernatremia, defined as an elevation of serum sodium >145 mEq/L, is one of the most common electrolyte disturbances in hospitalized patients and intensive care units.

In this study, the investigator aims, for the first time, to compare two strategies used for the correction of hypernatremia, using intravenous hypotonic solution compared to naso- or orogastric tube enteral water.

Read the detailed description

Hypernatremia, defined as an elevation of serum sodium >145 mEq/L, is one of the most common electrolyte disturbances in hospitalized patients and intensive care units, increasing mortality. Currently, the most effective correction strategy for hypernatremia (intravenous hypotonic solution compared to enteral water) is still a matter of debate due to a lack of evidence and clinical trials.

This study aims to determine whether the administration of intravenous hypotonic solution is more effective in the correction of hypernatremia compared to enteral water by naso- or orogastric tube. Therefore, the investigator proposes the first randomized clinical trial, which compares two strategies used for the correction of hypernatremia, with this we will determine which of the two is more effective, and we will also compare the speed of correction, renal function during hospitalization with serum creatinine and we will evaluate its safety.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Hypotonic SolutionDrug

    Intravenous administration of 5% glucose solution 1,200ml every 8 hours for a total of 3,600ml per day.

    If hyperglycemia is present, it will be glucose solution 5% 500ml + injectable water 500ml intravenous every 8 hours for a total of 3,600ml daily.

  • Water PurifiedDrug

    administration of bottled water through the nasogastric or orogastric tube at a dose of 150 ml/hour for a total of 3,600 ml per day.

If hyperglycemia is present, it will be glucose solution 5% 500ml + injectable water 500ml intravenous every 8 hours for a total of 3,600ml daily. If there is no hyperglycemia, it will be 5% glucose solution 1,200ml every 8 hours for a total of 3,600ml per day.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The efficiency of intravenous hypotonic solution for the correction of hypernatremia compared with enteral water.

    Correction of hypernatremia is <145mEq/L serum sodium

    Measured: every 12 hours during the first 48hrs of treatment and then every 24 hours for the first 5 days of the study.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. mortality

    Measured: the first 5 days of the study

  2. renal function

    serum creatinine

    Measured: the first 5 days of the study

  3. volume overload

    volume overload determined by accumulated water balance in milliliters

    Measured: the first 5 days of the study

  4. neurological alterations

    neurological disorders defined as the presence of altered state of consciousness, seizures and/or cerebral edema

    Measured: the first 5 days of the study

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jonathan Samuel Chavez Iñiguez (3313299609, jonarchi_10@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The efficiency of intravenous hypotonic solution for the correction of hypernatremia compared with enteral water. (time frame: every 12 hours during the first 48hrs of treatment and then every 24 hours for the first 5 days of the study.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06061783, which also lists 25 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
