      High levels are almost always due to dehydration without enough water intake. POTASSIUM Potassium is an electrolyte found mainly within the body’s cells. It is vital to proper function of the nerves, heart, and other muscles. Decreased levels may be caused by dehydration, heavy sweating, vomiting, diarrhea, and kidney disease.

      Hypernatremia (HRN), defined as serum sodium >145 mmol/l, represents hyperosmolality. Although it reflects a deficiency of water relative to sodium, total body sodium may be high, normal or low. HRN is mirror image of hyponatremia. Serum sodium (Na) level (hence osmolality) is tightly controlled within a narrow range

      Dehydration can be classified according to serum sodium concentration into hypernatremic, hyponatremic, or isonatremic dehydration. If water loss is greater in comparison to sodium loss, then the serum sodium concentration increases, resulting in hypernatremic (or hypertonic) dehydration.

      body’s cells can lose water. This causes dehydration, or fluid volume deficit. Dehydration refers to a fluid loss of 1% or more of body weight Hypervolemia refers to an excess of fluid (water and sodium) in ECF. The body has compensatory mechanisms to deal with hypervolemia. However, if these fail, signs and symptoms develop. Etiology/Cause
