This episode tackles a trio of tricky but important conditions: Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion (SIADH), Diabetes Insipidus (DI) and Cerebral Salt Wasting (CSW).
They can look similar on paper, but are different entities, and require completely different management —so getting the diagnosis right and knowing what to do is crucial.
In this episode, we unpack:
- The pathophysiology of each condition
- Their common aetiologies
- How to differentiate them clinically and biochemically
- The approach to management
