- W2394563500 abstract "Hyponatraemia (defined as a serum sodium level < 135 mml/l) is the most frequent serum electrolyte disorder in clinical practice. Older adults are particularly prone to develop hyponatraemia, due to comorbidities and consequent frequent use of medication and to age-related changes in water and electrolyte balance. Moreover, serum sodium concentrations can slightly decrease with age; a slight reduction in serum sodium concentration equal to 1 mmol/l /decade has been documented. Hyponatraemia is frequent in older adults. Previous studies performed in both the acute hospital setting and chronic care facilities have shown a relatively high prevalence of hyponatraemia, 16-34% of the older adults in the acute hospital setting and 18% of the nursing home residents can present this disorder. Physiological processes that occur with ageing are associated with changes in water metabolism and electrolyte balance, leading to alterations in plasma osmolality and body-fluid compartment volumes. Ageing typically leads to a 5-10% increase in total body fat, and a decrease in total body water of equal magnitude. In an elderly 70-kg man, this can account for a reduction in total body water of as much as 7-8 litres compared with a young man of the same weight. The consequence of these changes is that an equivalent acute loss, or gain, of body water can cause a greater degree of flux in osmolality in elderly compared with younger individuals. In this way, states of relatively mild dehydration or volume overload in the older adults are more likely to cause clinically significant shifts in the concentration of body electrolytes, such as sodium. Ageing is characterised by impaired homeostasis to stress in different organ systems and physiological functions. The complex mechanisms associated with water metabolism can be particularly vulnerable to age-related impaired homeostasis and to the various disease processes and medical interventions that frequently occur in the elderly. Several mechanisms can increase the risk of dehydration in older adults, such as the decreased thirst mechanism," @default.
