CJASN May 2019, 14 (5) 656-663; DOI: https://doi.org/10.2215/CJN.1064091



Conclusions: We did not find any evidence that rapid correction of hypernatremia is associated with a higher risk for mortality, seizure, alteration of consciousness, and/or cerebral edema in critically ill adult patients with either admission or hospital-acquired hypernatremia.
