Examples of methods for objective determination of hydration status

Measure Reference range [94] Euhydrated state [95] 95% probability of a dehydrated state (change score) [95]
Change in body mass (%) N/A ≤ 1.0 ≥ −2.5
Plasma osmolality (mOsmol/kg) 275-295 ≤ 290 ≥ +9
Urine specific gravity 1.003-1.035 ≤ 1.020 ≥ +0.010
