Pathophysiology of Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH)
- Excessive ADH Secretion:
- SIADH is characterized by the inappropriate and excessive secretion of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) from the posterior pituitary gland.
- ADH plays a crucial role in regulating water balance by promoting water reabsorption in the renal tubules.
- Water Retention:
- Excess ADH leads to increased water reabsorption in the kidneys, resulting in concentrated urine and reduced urine output.
- The retained water dilutes the sodium concentration in the blood, leading to hyponatremia.
- Hyponatremia:
- Hyponatremia occurs as a consequence of the dilutional effect of excess water on sodium levels in the bloodstream.
- Low sodium levels can lead to cellular swelling, affecting neurological function and potentially causing cerebral edema.
- Fluid Imbalance:
- The increased water retention causes expansion of the extracellular fluid volume, leading to fluid overload.
- Edema may occur, particularly in the extracellular spaces, contributing to clinical manifestations.
- Neurological Complications:
- Severe hyponatremia in SIADH can result in neurological complications, including confusion, seizures, and, in extreme cases, cerebral herniation.
- The impact on cerebral function is a significant concern in the management of SIADH.
Etiology of Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH)
- Central Nervous System Disorders:
- Brain tumors, infections, trauma, or any condition affecting the central nervous system can stimulate excessive ADH release.
- Pulmonary Disorders:
- Certain pulmonary conditions, such as pneumonia, tuberculosis, or lung cancer, can trigger SIADH.
- The release of ADH may be a response to hypoxia or other pulmonary stressors.
- Medications:
- Several medications, including thiazide diuretics, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and some antiepileptic drugs, can contribute to SIADH.
- Malignancies:
- Certain cancers, particularly small cell lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, and others, may produce ADH or stimulate its release, leading to SIADH.
- Other Causes:
- Other causes include pain, stress, surgery, and various conditions that activate the release of ADH inappropriately.
- Identifying and addressing the underlying cause is essential in managing SIADH effectively.
Desired Outcome for Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH)
- Normalization of Sodium Levels:
- Achieve and maintain serum sodium levels within the normal range to prevent complications associated with hyponatremia.

Implementation for Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH)
- Fluid Restriction:
- Implement and monitor strict fluid restriction as prescribed to manage fluid balance and prevent exacerbation of hyponatremia.
- Medication Administration:
- Administer medications as prescribed, such as vasopressin receptor antagonists (e.g., conivaptan) or hypertonic saline, to correct hyponatremia and manage symptoms.
- Daily Weights and Intake/Output Monitoring:
- Monitor daily weights and closely track intake and output to assess the effectiveness of fluid restriction and adjust as necessary.
- Neurological Monitoring:
- Perform regular neurological assessments to detect any signs of cerebral edema or neurological complications.
- Implement measures to ensure a safe environment for patients at risk of seizures or altered mental status.
- Collaboration with Healthcare Team:
- Collaborate with the healthcare team, including physicians, endocrinologists, and pharmacists, to develop and adjust the treatment plan based on patient response and laboratory values.
Nursing Interventions and Rationales
- Monitor I & O, daily weights
Patients may be on fluid restrictions to help balance intake and output. Monitor for retention through calculated intake and output and with daily weights at the same time on the same scale each day.
- Continuous ECG monitoring
Changes in electrolyte balance can disrupt the electrical conduction in the heart causing dysrhythmias.
- Assess and monitor vital signs every 1-2 hours
Fluid shifts can occur quickly causing changes in blood pressure and heart rate. Most often patients will experience hypotension.
- Assess and monitor respiratory status; note changes in respiration, auscultate lungs
Excess fluid volume can settle in and around the lungs and heart. Monitor for signs of congestion, difficulty breathing. SIADH can also be triggered by pneumonia, so monitor for the underlying cause as well.
- Administer medication and electrolyte supplements appropriately
- Electrolyte supplements (potassium)
- Demeclocycline or lithium – stops the kidneys from responding to extra ADH
Supplements may be given to regulate electrolyte imbalance. Carefully administer supplements to avoid overloading too quickly
- Monitor lab / diagnostic values
- Serum potassium
- Serum sodium
- Serum chloride
- Serum osmolality (concentration)
- Urine specific gravity
Hyponatremia is the hallmark of SIADH. Monitor lab values to determine if treatment is effective.
Evaluation for Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH)
- Normalization of Serum Sodium Levels:
- Regularly evaluate serum sodium levels to determine the success of treatment interventions in restoring normal sodium concentrations.
- Resolution of Symptoms:
- Assess for the resolution of symptoms associated with hyponatremia, such as edema, respiratory distress, and neurological manifestations.
- Adherence to Fluid Restriction:
- Evaluate the patient’s adherence to fluid restriction by reviewing intake and output records and assessing patient understanding and compliance.
- Effectiveness of Medication Therapy:
- Monitor the effectiveness of medication therapy in correcting hyponatremia and managing symptoms.
- Adjust medication dosages or treatment plans as needed.
- Prevention of Complications:
- Evaluate the prevention of complications related to SIADH, such as seizures, cerebral edema, and respiratory distress.
- Assess the patient’s overall well-being and quality of life following the implementation of the care plan.

Hey guys, let’s take a look at the care plan for a syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone or SIADH. So in this lesson, we’ll briefly take a look at the pathophysiology and etiology of SIADH. We’ll also look at subjective and objective data, as well as nursing interventions and rationales included in the care plan.
SIADH is diagnosed as a collection of symptoms that take place with otherwise normal function. This syndrome is characterized by hyponatremia, concentration of urine, and dilution of blood. The patient has an adequate amount of blood, which is more dilute than normal. SIADH causes the body to retain fluid resulting in decreased electrolyte imbalance. SIADH is an effect of other disorders, often nervous system disorders like epilepsy or giambre syndrome, or head trauma or cancers of the brain, GI, genitourinary and pulmonary systems. It is caused when the hypothalamus is stimulated to produce excess amounts of AVP or arginine vasopressin, which is an antidiuretic hormone that triggers the kidneys to retain fluid in the tubules and excrete sodium. As the amount of fluid builds up in the cells and tissues, it creates an imbalance of electrolytes, specifically sodium, causing hyponatremia. The excess fluid dilutes the blood, instead of being excreted, causing the urine to become concentrated. The desired outcome would be for the patients to maintain normal electrolyte and fluid balance.
Let’s take a look at some of the subjective and objective data that your patient with SIADH may present with. Remember, subjective data are going to be things that are based on your patient’s opinions or feelings like nausea, muscle cramps, depression, irritability, and fatigue.
Objective, or measurable data might include vomiting, hypothermia, tremors, confusion, seizures, coma, edema, and signs of volume overload.
Let’s take a look at nursing interventions included in the care plan. Monitor intake and output, and monitor daily weights. Patients may be on fluid restrictions to help balance intake and output, which should be calculated along with daily weights at the same time on the same scale, but not super important every day. Be sure to monitor your patient’s EKG continuously, as changes in electrolyte balance can disrupt the electrical conduction of the heart causing dysrhythmias. Fluid shifts can occur quickly causing changes in blood pressure and heart rate, which is why it is critical to assess and monitor your patient’s vital signs every one to two hours. Most often, patients with SIADH will experience hypotension. Excess fluid volume can settle in and around the lungs and the heart, so be sure to monitor for signs of congestion and difficulty breathing as ADH can also be triggered by pneumonia, so monitor for this underlying cause as well.
Medications and supplements are carefully given to avoid overloading too quickly. Supplements like potassium may be given to regulate electrolyte imbalances. Demeclocycline or lithium may be given to stop the kidneys from responding to extra ADH. Finally, hyponatremia. This is a hallmark sign of SIADH. So be sure to monitor lab values like serum, sodium, potassium, chloride serum, concentration, or osmolality and urine specific gravity
Okay, here is a look at the completed care plan for SIADH. We love you guys. Now, go out and be your best self today and as always, happy nursing!
