Inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone in infants with respiratory infections.

R P Rivers, M L Forsling, R P Olver
PMCID: PMC1627435  PMID: 7259256

Abstract

Four infants in whom excessive secretion of antidiuretic hormone was associated with pulmonary infections are reported. Severe hyponatraemia was noted in 3 of them; in the fourth, fluid restriction may have prevented this complication.
