Information source: Holstebro Hospital
Information obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov on June 20, 2008 Link to the current ClinicalTrials.gov record.
Condition(s) targeted: Syndrome of Inappropriate ADH-Secretion
Intervention: fluid restriction for 14 days (15ml fluid per kg weight) (Procedure)
Phase: Phase 4
Status: Withdrawn
Sponsored by: Holstebro Hospital Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s): Erling B Pedersen, Professor, Study Chair, Affiliation: Holstebro Hospital, Denmark
Summary
Patients treated with the antiepileptic drug Oxcarbazepine often develop syndrome of
inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone(SIADH)We want to test the hypothesis, that
these patients have a higher reabsorption of water during the Aquaporine2 water channels,a
higher concentration of Vasopressine (AVP), and a lower clearance of water. This situation
will tend to normalize, when the patients are treated with fluid restriction
