Purpose of the work: to develop an information criterion for early recognition and evaluation of the homeostasis correction efficiency in central diabetes insipidus. Materials and methods. 48 neurosurgical patients who underwent traumatic brain injury (21), surgery for a brain tumor (14) and stroke (13), whose course of the disease was complicated by central diabetes insipidus, have been examined. The diuresis rate and urine density (refractometrically) were studied in each of its portions excreted out of the body within an hour. According to the indicator of osmotic density and the range of urine output, an information criterion for the diagnosis of diabetes insipidus and the dynamics of its course was developed – the osmotically volumetric urine index (OVUI). Results and discussion. With physiological water input, 0.8-1.0 ml∙kg-1of urine is usually excreted from the human body within an hour. Concurrently, its specific gravity (urine density, UD) is 1012-1025. In 12 patients of the comparison group without diabetes insipidus, the OVUI index was 8.0-12.0. Central diabetes insipidus is characterized by significant homeostasis disorders: blood hypohydration and hyperosmolarity due to violation of hypothalamic-pituitary regulation of antidiuretic hormone secretion. In these conditions the osmotically volumetric urine index decreases to indicators ˂ 1.0. The criterion for the intensive therapy efficiency for homeostasis disorders in diabetes insipidus is OVUI increase above 1.0. The article presents a clinical case of timely recognition and successful correction of homeostasis in a patient with traumatic brain injury complicated by central diabetes insipidus.  Conclusions. The osmotically volumetric urine index – is an indicator that allows diagnosing diabetes insipidus in its early manifestations and timely preventing a violation of homeostasis. With the norm of OVUI at 8.0-12.0, its decrease to ˂ 1.0 indicates the presence of diabetes insipidus in the patient. Timely and adequate correction of disorders of hydration, blood osmolarity and the use of desmopressin lead to the OVUI normalization, which is a dynamic marker of the efficiency of intensive therapy of diabetes insipidus. The simplicity of the study (the possibility of carrying it out directly at the patient’s bedside), as well as the informativeness of the OVUI diagnostic and prognostic values deserve to be used in clinical practice.

Cedera otak traumatika adalah salah satu penyebab kematian dan kesakitan tersering pada kelompok masyarakat muda. Hasil akhir dari cedera kepala berat dapat menyebabkan gangguan kognitif, perilaku, psikologi dan sosial. Salah satu konsekuensi dari cedera kepala berat adalah terjadinya disfungsi hormonal baik dari hipofise anterior maupun posterior. Angka kejadian disfungsi hormonal ini sekitar 20-50%. Salah satu yang paling menantang dan sering terjadi adalah diabetes insipidus (DI) dan Syndrome inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). Angka kejadian diabetes insipidus pasca cedera kepala diduga sebesar 1-2,9% dengan berbagai tingkatannya. Pada beberapa kasus bersifat sementara tapi beberapa kasus terjadi bersifat menetap. Pada laporan kasus ini akan dibawakan sebuah kasus diabetes insipidus pasca cedera kepala berat. Pasien mengalami cedera kepala berat, hingga dilakukan decompressive craniectomi dan trakeostomi. Untuk perawatan lanjutan pasien dirujuk ke Jakarta. Saat menjalani terapi lanjutan ini pasien terdiagnosis diabetes insipidus Pada kasus ini diabetes insipidus tidak timbul langsung setelah cedera kepala tetapi baru timbul lebih kurang satu bulan setelah cedera kepala. Diabetes insipidus dikelola dengan menggunakan desmopressin spray dan oral disamping mengganti cairan yang hilang. Pada kasus ini desmopressin sempat di stop sebelum akhirnya diberikan terus menerus dan pasien diterapi sebagai diabetes insipidus yang menetap. Managing Central Diabetes Insipidus in Post Severe Head Injury PatientAbstractTraumatic brain injury is the cause of mortality and morbidity in society mostly in male-young generation. The last outcome of traumatic brain injury might be deficit in cognitive, behavioral, psychological and social. the consequences of traumatic brain injury might be hormonal disfunction from anterior and posterior pituitary. The incidence around 20-50%. The most challenging problem is diabetes insipidus (DI) and syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). The incident of post traumatic diabetes insipidus around 1-2,9% with several degree. In certain case its only occurred transiently but some report it could be permanent. In this case report will find one case post traumatic diabetes insipidus. This pasien had severe traumatic brain injury and underwent decompressive craniectomy and tracheostomy. For further therapy patient was referred to Jakarta. In this further treatment patient diagnosed with diabetes insipidus. Diabetes insipidus doesn’t occurred since the first day of injury but occurred almost one month after. Diabetes insipidus managed with desmopressin spray and oral beside replace water loss. For a few days desmopressin stop but diabetes insipidus occurred again so desmopressin given daily both spray and oral and the patient had therapy as diabetes insipidus permanent.

An 11-year-old female spayed Maltese presented comatose, half an hour after vehicular trauma, and was treated for traumatic brain injury and pulmonary contusions. The dog developed severe hypernatremia within six hours of presentation, which responded poorly to the administration of five percent dextrose in water. As central diabetes insipidus was suspected, desmopressin was trialled and resolution of hypernatremia was achieved six days later. Transient trauma-induced central diabetes insipidus has been described previously in two dogs; in the first, serum sodium concentrations were evaluated three days after injury and the other developed hypernatremia seven days after injury. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first report of rapid onset, transient, and trauma-induced central diabetes insipidus in a dog that encompasses the complete clinical progression of the syndrome from shortly after injury through to resolution.

Abstract Background Idiopathic central diabetes insipidus (CDI) has been associated with intracranial pathologies that do not involve the structural pituitary gland or hypothalamus. The objective was to study the association between non-structural hypothalamic/pituitary intracranial pathologies (NSHPIP) with CDI and to review etiologies that may be contributory to the development of CDI. Methods A retrospective query of our intra-institutional database from 2006 to 2015. Children admitted diagnosed with diabetes insipidus (DI) (ICD-9 253.5) between the ages of 0–1 year were included. Patient charts were reviewed to include those who have a documented diagnosis of CDI, hypernatremia (>145 mmol/L), high serum osmolality (>300 mOsm/kg), low urine osmolality (<300 mOsm/kg), and brain imaging reports. Diagnoses of nephrogenic DI were excluded. Results Twenty-three infant patients were diagnosed with CDI. Eleven subjects (48%) had NSHPIP. Of those, 18% had cerebral infarction, 27% had intracranial injury and hemorrhage due to traumatic brain injury, 18% had isolated intraventricular hemorrhage, and 27% had meningitis. Hospital prevalence for NSHPIP, age 0–1 year, ranged from 0.05% to 0.3%. Conclusions Rates of NSHPIP in those with CDI are higher than expected hospital rates (p<0.001), suggesting a possible association between CDI and NSHPIP.

The triphasic response of pituitary stalk injury has previously been described in a minority of patients following intracranial surgery, however, this phenomenon can also occur after traumatic brain injury. We present the case of a 20-year-old male who experienced the triphasic response of pituitary stalk injury (central diabetes insipidus, syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone and central diabetes insipidus again) after striking his head on a concrete curb. His history and presentation highlight the importance of recognising the distinctive symptoms of each individual stage of pituitary stalk injury, and using the appropriate diagnostic tools and therapies to guide further management.

We report a case of a patient with mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) who was diagnosed with permanent central diabetes insipidus (DI). A 21-year-old man was admitted to our outpatient clinic with polyuria and polydipsia 1 week after a mild head injury. He was well, except for these complaints. The initial laboratory workup was consistent with DI. There was no abnormality with other laboratory and hormone values. MRI showed lack of neurohypophyseal hyperintensity with no other abnormal findings. The patient responded well to desmopressin therapy. At the first year of the diagnosis, the patient still needed to use desmopressin treatment as we concluded that DI is permanent. DI is not uncommon after TBI, but it is often seen after severe TBI. We present here an extraordinary case of developing permanent DI after mild TBI with the absence of neurohypophyseal bright spot on MRI with no other abnormal findings.

Objective. Intensive therapy of severe traumatic brain injury belongs to the most difficult section of resuscitation. Therefore, the main purpose of intensive care during the implementation is to eliminate disorders of Rheosorbilact homeostasis. Materials and methods. We analyzed 30 patients with traumatic brain injury in the intensive care unit of the Republican Clinical Hospital between 2018 and 2019. All patients were divided into two groups: 1st – control group (16 patients) – received complex intensive therapy without Rheosorbilact, while 2nd group (14 patients), received Rheosorbilact in a comprehensive intensive therapy. The main pharmacologically active substances of the drug are sorbitol, basic cations (Na, K, Ca, Mg), and sodium lactate. Thanks to these components, the drug has a hyperosmolar effect, causing fluid from the intercellular space to enter the vascular channel and thus improves microcirculation and perfusion of brain tissue. In order to monitor the effectiveness of the therapy in the dynamics evaluated indicators of hemodynamics (level of consciousness and diuresis), laboratory data (hemotocrit, electrolyte composition of blood, acid-alkaline blood condition, coagulogram), and MRI data. Rheosorbilact was used as part of a complex therapy in an infusion-transfusion program in the amount of 200-400 ml daily intravenous drip. Results. In patients, whom after the beginning of complex intensive therapy was included Rheosorbilact, was observed earlier (the first 6 h) compared to the control group, which did not use Rheosorbilact, stabilization of hemodynamics. Conclusions. Infusion therapy with Rheosorbilact in patients with traumatic brain injury contributed primarily to stabilization of hemodynamics and faster normalization of vital functions of the body.
