Introduction: Ichthyosis is an epidermal disruption that increases insensible water loss. Hypernatremic dehydration a consequence of skin disruption. This study reviewed the treatment hypernatremic in patients with ichthyosis comparing to intact skin. Case Presentation: We studied five neonates hypernatremia, including three cases and two normal-skin neonates. case-series showed sodium correcti...

We report on the brain diffusion MR imaging findings in a neonate with severe hypernatremic dehydration, which resulted in cerebral edema (osmotic edema) and in apparent diffusion coefficient decrease, despite a careful and slow rehydration. This report provides in vivo insight into nervous cell response to osmotic challenge.

OBJECTIVES The aims of this study were to evaluate the prevalence, complications, and mortality of hypernatremic dehydration in neonates and to compare the effect of correction rate at 48 hours on mortality and on neurological outcome in the short term. METHODS This retrospective study was conducted between January 2007 and 2011 in the neonatal intensive care unit. Term neonates were included...

AIM To investigate serum creatinine and electrolyte status of children with diarrhea-related hyponatremic or hypernatremic dehydration. METHODS Medical history of 83 patients admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit of the Konya Education and Research Hospital, Konya, Turkey with diarrhea, dehydration and electrolyte imbalance was retrospectively evaluated according to the degree of dehy...

Severe neonatal hypernatremia is an important electrolyte disorder that has serious effects. Cerebral venous thrombosis and aortic thrombosis are relatively rare in severe neonatal hypernatremic dehydration. The authors report a case of cerebral venous thrombosis, associated with aortic thrombosis revealed by dehydration in a 9-day-old boy. Diagnostic was performed using Doppler ultrasound and ...

Miliaria crystallina is a common, transient and self-limited cutaneous disorder, caused by blockage within the eccrine sweat duct. Herein, we report neonatal case with miliaria developed during treatment of severe hypernatremic dehydration. The effective prevention to avoid further sweating. On basis presented patient, consider that may be rarely in newborns hypernatremia but this condition sel...

The authors report an 11-day-old exclusively breast-fed female, with a birth weight of 3 300 g, who had suffered from dehydration stage I, with acute renal failure and metabolic acidosis, with 170 mmol/L of serum sodium. Renal ultrasounds were normal but the rate of sodium in mother's milk was three times higher than controls (87 versus 21 mmol/L). Intravenous rehydration allowed the correction...
