3.26 Abnormalities of sodium and potassium
  1. Sodium 135-145
    1. Hypernatraemia
      1. Signs and symptoms
        1. Dehydrated, thirsty, weak and tired
          1. Irritable, confused, low GCS, fitting
          2. Causes
            1. not enough water
              1. low intake
                1. increased loss
                  1. dermal - sweating, burns
                    1. GI - D/V
                      1. renal
