The most important factors leading to nocturnal
polyuria in children are as follows (20):
Impacts of the formula of Suoquanwan (SQW) on expression of AQP-2 mRNA and AVPR-V2 mRNA in the kidney of rat
polyuria model of Yang-deficiency.
Of note was the presence, during the initial 12 hours of this admission, of marked
polyuria (> 10 litres/12 hours, peaking at 2100 ml in one hour).
Twenty percent of the women in the SP-only group had fatigue, orthostatic symptoms, and
polyuria. These were most significant in the first two weeks of treatment but diminished over the course of the study.
Oliguria (<400 mL/24 h) was noted for 55% of the PUUV patients and all SAAV patients; subsequent
polyuria (>2,500 mL/24 h) was noted for 45% of the PUUV-infected patients and in 67% of the SAAV patients.
Diabetes insipidus is defined by
polyuria, even under conditions of dehydration, when ADH secretion normally maximizes water reabsorption.
DDAVP tablets are indicated as an antidiuretic replacement therapy for central diabetes insipidus, and in the management of temporary
polyuria and polydipsia and of primary nocturnal enuresis.
Diabetes insipidus is characterized by the excretion of a large volume (usually greater than 4 L/day) of hypotonic, insipid (tasteless) urine, usually accompanied by
polyuria and polydipsia (Williams & Wilson, 1998).
AFATIGUE, polydipsia (thirst) and
polyuria (excess urination) can be the first symptoms of diabetes.
Section I covers oliguria,
polyuria, edema, uremia and symptoms of electrolyte disorders.
