Am J Health Syst Pharm. 2010;67(22):1920-1928. Due to the high osmolarity of hypertonic saline, infusion through a central line is preferred to minimize phlebitis. Most studies used a 7.5% ...

However, several studies have shown that calculated serum osmolality may lead to a systematic bias compared with direct measurement. In the present study, mannitol or hypertonic saline (HS) will be ...

Hypertonic dehydration, otherwise known as hypernatremia, occurs when the body loses too much water and not enough sodium, leading to an imbalance of water and sodium levels. It is one of three forms ...

Decibel Therapeutics has been granted a patent for hypertonic pharmaceutical compositions containing anti-platinum chemoprotectant agents and gelling agents. The compositions have a calculated ...

A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11857567B2) discloses a hypertonic pharmaceutical composition designed to prevent or mitigate platinum-induced ototoxicity in subjects. The composition ...

Hypertonic saline–stimulated copeptin has been used to diagnose AVP deficiency with high accuracy but requires close sodium monitoring. Arginine-stimulated copeptin has shown similar diagnostic ...

An inter-eye osmolarity difference of 8 mOsmol/L is not a useful cut-off for diagnosing dry eye disease based on osmolarity. Inter-eye osmolarity differences of 8 mOsmol/L do not provide strong ...
