Dear Dr. Andras, My father was admitted with low sodium levels and was treated with infusion of sodium with NaCl 3%, he is also diagnosed with OSD now and in hospital since one month. He is not on life support anymore (which he was for 2 days because of low sodium levels). Since he was diagnosed with OSD, he was treated with bringing down the sodium levels to around 120 mmol and was maintained to around 125 mmol for long. In his initial days, he was totally unresponsive with no eye movement and all limbs were not moving at all. He has shown response to this and his eye movements have returned and him lower limb movements are also showing good response. Starting with his leg fingers, then tow and now to knee shows fair bit of movement. His upper limb movement is not so good though. His neck movement is also shown minor improvement. All this because of right physiotherapy sessions and proper care, he has no other clinical case of blood pressure, sugar level or any other long running disease. What else can be done to correct this and how long will my father will take to recover? thank you very much for this video .... it answered lot of my question.

My mother is also diagnosed with osmotic demyelinating syndrome. I am devastated and cried hard when i came to know that she has no treatment and she will stay like this forever or she may even die due to complications. I didn’t lose hope and started searching for treatments. I am from medical insurance background and knew many doctors. I found many cases/journals/treatment records of osmotic demyelinating syndrome. Even though its not an established treatment but there are cases of complete recovery by plasmapheresis and IVIG therapy. I found a hospital in hyderabad india who was familier with these therapies and infact treated many similar cases.

My father was admitted into the hospital with low sodium. A few days later he was unable to talk, walk and eat. They told us he had a stroke but found out after he died and had and brain autopsy that is was ODS. Because he drank and was labeled a “alcoholic” we can’t get a lawyer to help. Hospital killed him and gets away with it.

Was given sodium on other occassions too, rapidly for days straight. Another time was given sodium when I didn't even need it..... all my muscles started jumping in my body when it was being given to me and I didn't even need it.

Hi. First thank you for your clear answer about normosaline on the other video! Since i m dealing with lots of hypoNa everyday i got one question about ODS. In fact, today i suspected it for the first time. I got a practical question about how to manage such a situation. Once you suspect ODS like for example a patient with brutal bilateral vision loss with history of chronic HypoNa (106 at entrance) with mild symptoms treated really fast by another doctor (126 after 2days)... now at 134. what should we do first? After a negative complete ophtalmological examination i asked for a cerebral MRI. I would say once you have MRI arguments for ODS you can start desmopressin right? Or is it possible to start before further exploration. I thought that if i use desmopressin and it comes out that it isnt ODS than i would put the patient in acute hypoNa with risk of cerebral edema... most doctors i asked were not really familiar with ODS. Thank you:)

I help my Mom with home hemodialysis and her sodium was 126 in the ER this morning. She has had cognition changes since April, low potassium, muscle weakness, increased urination, swallowing issues, slow processing, nausea, extreme hypertension for her, red eyes, leg and foot pains, recent headaches, tremoring, and constipation. We only have .9 saline. If this were your Mother what steps could you take at home to carefully help her get better? We have to do hemodialysis tonight and her potassium was 4.1 in the ER. Her thyroid med needed to increase a little. We have a nephrology appt tomorrow but I am worried we won't get help to fix this. Do you have any ideas that you might try yourself in this scenario? Thank-you (That locked in syndrome you mentioned scares me because Mom can still talk and she remembers things but she isn't initiating anything...sometimes it improves but I never know how to help her to continuously improve.)

I apologize for my stupidity but I thought to ask this question as I started to understand something from your videos which I thought i will never understand it 😅😅😅. Q) you said Maximum we can give is (6 mmol/L a day) of 3% NaCL IV and that the fast it depends on the patient if its Acute or chronic,......so how I’m going to prescribe it??? I have in hospital: (0.9% , 3% & 5% NaCL) There is : -250 ml , 500 ml and 1 Liter . And then i need to wright the speed: (In one hour, 2.h , 4.h, 6.h , 8.h or 12.h) So how should I calculate 6mmol/L in a day in the prescription??

I'm not allowed to give direct advice online for real patients that I have never seen. All I can say is this: these values are very severe and it needs to be corrected with 3% NACL and not too much 0,9% NACL. Please don't give more than 300ml 3% NACL daily. Please do regular daily control of the lab values. The potassium can be given orally, but I would give intravenous if the patient is in the hospital. BUT as I said, the doctors that are treating the patient needs to decide about the treatment because they know all the information about the patient.

@@aRchLee7 21 times 24 hours = 504ml every day. I think its too much. BUT they have diluted it with 0,9%, , so the concentration is not that extreme. BUT in the end, its too much NACL in my opinion, since they are giving 325ml 0,9%.and 500ml 3%. I would rather give it slower. Even by severe neurological symptoms, there should only be given max 300ml 3% daily. As I said, if you are not sure whether your doctor is doing it correctly, always ask them why they do it, and if necessary ask for a second opinion from another doctor in the hospital or in another hospital. There may be some information that I dont know about the patient, so I can not give you a statement about what to do. I can only highlight basic science information.
