Tracking salt and fluid balance in low-sodium treatment
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This observational study measures how body fluid and electrolytes change in adults with low blood sodium caused by low “tonicity” (not diluted by high sugar or other causes). It may help clinicians better understand which treatment approaches keep sodium levels safer and more stable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 18 or older
- You have low blood sodium due to low tonicity (often sodium <130)
- Your blood tests support “hypotonic” low sodium (or no signs of a different cause)
- You do not have signs of extra fluid/volume building up in the body
- You do not have severe liver, heart, kidney failure, or need dialysis
- You have not had an organ transplant

This study looks at how the body handles salt (sodium) in people with end-stage kidney disease who are on dialysis. If you join, researchers will test how your body responds to changes in fluids and salt levels.
This study looks at how salt builds up in the skin of people with chronic kidney disease. It involves different groups testing either sodium intake, sodium excretion, or water intake to see how these affect blood pressure and kidney function.
This study tests a simple procedure called a saline infusion test, where you get a mild saltwater solution through an IV, to see how well your body handles low sodium. Your sodium levels will be monitored to understand why your sodium is low and help guide your treatment.
This is a retrospective study (meaning researchers look back at medical records) of patients who had very low sodium levels in their blood when admitted to the hospital. Researchers want to understand the link between how quickly doctors correct low sodium and a rare brain condition called osmotic demyelination syndrome.
This study tests whether changing the amount of salt in your dialysis fluid can help lower blood pressure and improve blood vessel health. If you are on dialysis, this could be a way to feel better and reduce heart risks.
This study tests a fast method of giving fluids by IV to quickly correct very high blood sodium levels. The goal is to restore balance safely without causing complications.
