Can you spot SIADH?
Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic
hormone secretion (SIADH) occurs when
there’s a continuous, inappropriate action
or excessive secretion of antidiuretic hor–
mone (ADH), specifically the hormone
arginine vasopressin (AVP), which is pro–
duced in the hypothalamus and secreted
by the posterior pituitary gland. AVP
controls the conservation and release of
water in the body. SIADH occurs even in
the presence of an increased or normal
plasma volume and results in hypo–
osmolality and hyponatremia (blood se–
rum sodium levels less than 135 mEq/L).
In SIADH, hyponatremia isn’t the result
of a sodium deficiency; rather, it’s caused
by an excess of water.
Causes
SIADH is often thought of as a manifes–
tation of another disease or condition, as
a symptom rather than a cause. SIADH is
associated with diseases/conditions that
affect the osmoreceptors of the hypothal–
amus, which detect changes in osmotic
pressure. These osmoreceptors cause an
afferent neurologic signal to be sent to
the hypothalamus, which then triggers re–
lease of ADH from the posterior pituitary
gland to regulate blood concentration
(see Understanding SIADH).
According to the Mayo Clinic, causes
of SIADH include medications, such as
hydrochlorothiazide, methotrexate, cip–
rofloxacin, cisplatin, haloperidol, and
amphetamines; central nervous system
disturbances; cancers/tumors; lung dis–
eases; surgical procedures, such as for
traumatic brain injury and exploratory
laparotomy; HIV/AIDS; and congestive
heart failure (CHF).
SIADH in children occurs due to water
imbalance caused by medication admin–
istration, such as chemotherapy; brain
tumors; or fluid imbalances.
Complications
SIADH is the leading cause of hypona–
tremia in hospitals, with approximately
one-third of all hyponatremia cases being
directly attributed to it.
Complications of SIADH are related
to the magnitude and rate of hyponatre–
mia development. Onset can be acute,
develop in less than 48 hours, and lead
to potentially life-threatening complica–
tions. However, if hyponatremia is chron–
ic and has developed slowly over many
days or weeks, complications are often
subtle and can be easily overlooked.
Whether acute or chronic, hyponatremia
is a serious electrolyte imbalance that
studies show leads to increased morbid–
ity and mortality both inside the hospital
and out.

Mild complications generally associ–
ated with chronic SIADH and a serum
sodium level of greater than 125 mEq/L
include:
• headaches
• depression
• memory problems
• muscle cramps
• tremors
• anorexia
• weight gain
• decreased urine output.
Severe complications of SIADH are
more often associated with an acute onset
of hyponatremia and a serum sodium level
of less than 120 mEq/L. These complica–
tions are more advanced and related to
systemic water intoxication. Neurologic
complications develop because of osmoti–
cally induced cerebral edema. Monitoring
for cardiac and pulmonary complications
is essential because vascular congestion

• CHF
• coma
• death.
Diagnosis
The diagnosis of SIADH can be challeng–
ing because there’s no single definitive
test for it. Often, SIADH will be first
suspected due to abnormally low serum
sodium levels discovered during routine
blood chemistry for another condition.
Note that patients with serum sodium
levels below 120 mEq/L are at a high
risk for seizures. Although hyponatre–
mia can be found in nearly all patients
with SIADH, a low serum sodium level
isn’t sufficient to act as a positive test for
SIADH. The primary reason for this is be–
cause other common conditions can lead
to hyponatremia, such as gastrointestinal
illness (with corresponding vomiting and
diarrhea) and adrenal insufficiency.
Uric acid levels can be used as a gen–
eral indicator. SIADH will often cause
uric acid levels to be low. This presents
in around 70% of SIADH cases, whereas
patients with salt depletion present in
around 40% of cases.
A reliable way to test whether a patient
meets the basic criteria to be considered for
SIADH is to perform these three checks:
1. Is the patient hyponatremic (serum
sodium level less than 135 mEq/L)?
2. Does the patient present with hypo–
osmolality (less than 280 mOsm/kg)?
3. Is urine osmolality high?
If these three conditions are met, then
the distal nephrons are being acted on by
AVP. Although this is helpful, it doesn’t
indicate if AVP is being secreted inappro–
priately, as may be the case with patients
with cirrhosis or CHF.
22 Nursing made Incredibly Easy! July/August 2018 www.NursingMadeIncrediblyEasy.com
Copyright © 2018 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved.Some of the tests for SIADH fall into
the category of positive test by negative
finding. An example of this is when the
patient’s clinical assessment offers find–
ings that don’t support decreased effec–
tive intravascular volume, yet the patient
presents with hyponatremia. One simple
way to begin to isolate what’s happening
and why is to put the patient on a sodium
restriction. Patients who have SIADH will
continue to excrete sodium in their urine
that’s less than maximally dilute, regard–
less of dietary restrictions.
Unfortunately, imaging still doesn’t
have a lot to offer in the way of diagnostic
tools. It’s more typically used to confirm
the existence of underlying conditions
that may cause the release of AVP, such
as CHF, or identify conditions caused by
hyponatremia secondary to SIADH, such
as hydrocephalus.
Treatments
Supportive care for SIADH is determined
by a multitude of factors. Treatment is
based on:
• patient health and tolerance to therapy
or medications
• determination as chronic (unknown du–
ration) or acute (less than 48 hours)
• degree of hyponatremia (mild, moder–
ate, or severe)
• presentation as symptomatic or
asymptomatic
• lab values for urine osmolality and cre–
atinine clearance.
Because SIADH may be the result of an
underlying cause, initial treatment may
include either addressing the primary
medical condition or adjusting or discon–
tinuing current medications in the event
of a drug-induced condition. Otherwise,
hyponatremia is corrected by reduc–
ing fluid retention and avoiding further
buildup by limiting fluid intake.
Fluid intake may be restricted to 500
to 1,500 mL/day. Calculations must con–
sider all intake, including oral, I.V., and
metabolic production in comparison to

water loss through urine, stool, skin,
and respiration. A rise in serum sodium
concentration is expected. However, this
nonpharmacologic approach can be dif–
ficult for patients to adhere to. Taking a
daily weight measurement is important,
as is rigorous measurements of intake and
output.
Pharmacologic approaches include 3%
sodium chloride solution, loop diuretics,
urea, demeclocycline, lithium, conivaptan,
and tolvaptan. Sodium chloride solution
administration must be closely moni–
tored due to the possibility of pulmonary
edema. The loop diuretic furosemide may
be administered with 3% sodium chloride
solution to avoid edema or as a stand-alone
treatment. Note that the effectiveness of
lithium can be unreliable and may result
in renal toxicity. Adverse reactions of
conivaptan include hypotension, elevated
blood urea nitrogen, increased thirst, and
infusion-site reactions. Adverse reactions
of tolvaptan may include increased thirst,
dry mouth, and urinary frequency, along
with reports of constipation, nausea, diz–
ziness, weakness, hyperglycemia, and
urinary tract infection.
Continuous venovenous hemofiltra–
tion and sustained low-efficiency daily

the case of exceptional, cardiac-related
emergencies.

Management of SIADH is focused
on treating symptoms related to hypo–
natremia, whether mild, moderate, or
advanced. Correction rates are monitored
closely regardless of treatment due to
the risk of central pontine myelinolysis
(CPM)—the dysfunction of brain cells
caused by the destruction of the myelin
sheath of nerve cells in the central por–
tion of the brainstem. This adverse reac–
tion can occur in relation to a rapid rise
in serum sodium levels and can lead to
decreased level of consciousness (LOC),
dysphagia, mutism, quadriparesis, and
death.
The key to avoiding CPM is careful
and appropriate correction of the patient’s
hyponatremia based on the degree of
sodium deficiency, whether the patient is
symptomatic, and whether the hypona–
tremia is acute or chronic in nature, with
frequent lab testing of serum sodium
levels. In addition to lab testing, frequent
monitoring of the patient’s neurologic sta–
tus must be performed to identify changes
as early as possible. Total sodium correc–
tion must not exceed 10 mEq in a 24-hour
period, with some authors recommending
an even more conservative rate of 8 mEq in
a 24-hour period.
Accuracy and vigilance
SIADH needs to be accurately diag–
nosed and then controlled and moni–
tored appropriately. As always, safety is
paramount. Your vigilance is crucial for
patients with this
diagnosis. ■

Module 6: Conduct an Appreciative Inquiry Interview
For this assignment, you will conduct an Appreciative Inquiry (AI) interview with a person of your choosing. You can interview: a) a classmate or other student with work experience; b) a co-worker; c) an adult friend; or d) an adult family member.
The purpose of this activity is to: 1) give you an introductory experience on how to conduct an interview; and 2) learn the transformative potential of Appreciative Inquiry. After conducting the interview, you will write up your findings as detailed below, submitting a 750-1000 word paper.
Before you begin:
- Please watch this videoHow to conduct an appreciative inquiry interview” (Links to an external site.)
- Read this web article: Moore, C. (2019). 119+ Appreciative Interview questions and examples (Links to an external site.).
- If you have time, this article outlines the appreciative inquiry process in more detail (pp. 41-56) PeaceCorpsGuide_Asset-basedOrganizationalChange.pdfActions
Then,
1. Decide on who you want to interview. Interviews can be done in person (be sure to maintain social distancing), or by phone or video.
2. Contact them ASAP to schedule the interview. Interviews ideally will be completed by Friday to give you time to write up your findings, analysis, and reflection. Confirm their preference for the format (in-person, phone, or video conference). Send a reminder email or text the day before.
Sample invitation language: “I’m conducting an interview for a class assignment. I’d like to reflect with you on what experiences you’ve found inspiring and valuable in your own work. Would you have 30 minutes to talk about your experiences? To protect your privacy, I will not share your name or organization with anyone else, just summarize the main points we cover in our conversation.”
3. Prepare an interview guide outline that includes the following items:
- Introduction. Thank the person for participating, let them know why you’re doing this, and that their participation is voluntary.
Sample language: “Let me first say thank you for this meeting. I appreciate you taking time to reflect with me. My goal for today is to learn from your real-life experiences about the positive role of business in building a better world. This interview is for a class assignment to learn what is most meaningful to people in their work lives. I will be taking notes and summarizing your comments. Your responses are voluntary. We can skip over anything you don’t want to discuss, and we can stop the interview any time–just let me know. The interview will last about 30 minutes. Are you ready to begin?”
- Questions: choose 3-5 questions from the article above (or from the learning materials articles) that energize you and make sense for the person you want to talk with. As you ask the questions, jot down notes to capture their responses. Be sure to also make eye contact with them and provide verbal acknowledgements to let them know you are listening and paying attention. Sample language: “That’s all the questions I have for today. Do you have anything else you’d like to tell me that I haven’t asked” <LISTEN AND RESPOND>.
- Conclusion: thank them for their time. Ask them if they have any questions. Ask if they would like to see a summary of their answers. Sample language: I appreciate you taking the time to talk with me today. I’ll write up a summary of your responses in the next couple of days. Would you like me to send you a copy? Ok, thank you again for your participation.”
4. Conduct the interview as outlined in your interview guide.
5. Write up your findings. Immediately after the interview, type up your notes from the meeting to capture your participant’s responses while they’re still fresh in your mind. In a separate section, also jot down any feelings or thoughts you experienced doing the interview, and what you think you are learning from the data right now. These notes to yourself are known as analytic memos (Links to an external site.).
6. Prepare a 750-1000 word paper covering the following items:
- Participant background: Who did you interview (general description, not name). Why did you select them? What is their professional experience (e.g., industry, position, years of experience)?
- Summary of interview: What questions did you ask, and what were their responses? Write at least 1-2 paragraphs for each question asked.
- Interpretation of data: What patterns/themes emerge as you make sense of these data (their responses)? Analyze these insights using concepts and vocabulary from Modules 1-6 to make sense of their answers and frame them in the larger context of organizational transformation.
- Reflection: What was your experience doing this activity? Was it fun, challenging, etc.? Be specific and reflect on why you might have experienced these feelings. How might what you have learned from this activity (both content-wise from the data and analysis, and reflection-wise about yourself) be helpful as you go forward in your studies and work?
7. Send a thank you note to your participant. Include a copy of their summarized responses if they requested that.

Introduction
As we have learned in this unit, education is an important factor in determining occupation and income, as well as health. The COVID-19 pandemic has created major set backs in education, leading to questions regarding the K-12 system. One idea that has gained traction as a result is “funding students, not systems”.
