Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R,
Approach to Hypernatremia
Hypernatremia occurs in pediatric, geriatric, and critically ill patients with high serum sodium concentrations. It can affect multiple organ systems and lead to subdural or subarachnoid hemorrhages. Correcting the hypertonicity and identifying the underlying condition help manage hypernatremia.
Medicolegal Safeguard at Individual Clinic Level
Overburdened healthcare systems and commercialized healthcare increase the mistrust and suspicion of medical services among the general population. This results in an increasing number of medicolegal cases against physicians and hospitals. Physicians must stay updated with medical laws and guidelines to safeguard themselves from medicolegal cases and prepare for legal protection and risk management.
