Hey forum,
Ran across a question in Kaplan Qbank that asks which of the following choices (options attached) is consistent with the diagnosis of SIADH. I picked D for euvolemia and ↑urine Na+. But the answer is A (attached) where there is ↑intravascular volume and ↑urine Na+. The explanation they gave is that the patient is both euvolemic and have a ↑intravascular volume. This seems to contradict each other unless they are talking about an acute and chronic case.
Can someone explain this please.
Thanks a bunch
