Point‐of‐care Doppler ultrasound in the management of hyponatremia: Another string to nephrologists' Bow

Abstract

Abstract Objective assessment of fluid status is vital for the appropriate management of patients with hyponatremia. Conventional physical examination suffers from several limitations in this regard, and point‐of‐care Doppler ultrasonography can be used as an adjunct to clinical and laboratory data in evaluating these patients.
