The normal serum sodium:potassium (Na +:K +) ratio in dogs and cats lies between 27:1 and 40:1 6. A low ratio (below 27:1) can be a valuable clue to the possibility of primary hypoadrenocorticism, especially if the ratio is greatly diminished 6,12.

Canine hypoadrenocorticism, or Addison’s disease, results from adrenocortical hormone insufficiency. An overall low disease prevalence combined with vague clinical signs and nonspecific clinicopathologic abnormalities makes diagnosis challenging. Ultimately, specialized laboratory testing is required for definitive diagnosis.

Sodium (Na) is a vital dietary element required by canines for proper body functions. It is the major positively charged (cation) in the extracellular fluids of animals and human beings found mainly in interstitial fluids and blood plasma.

2021年12月14日 · Hypernatremia is defined as a plasma or serum [Na] above the reference range and reflects the loss of water in excess of sodium, or the addition of sodium in excess of water. In healthy animals, central osmoreceptors will detect the associated increase in osmolarity and trigger water-seeking behaviors and antidiuretic hormone release.

NADOG community events are our quarterly in-person gatherings. Most are 2-3 hours in length, and start at 6PM local time. NADOG events are designed for our members to connect with and learn something new from our featured speakers, and to connect with and share experiences with their local peers.

IT practitioners and IT leaders can join the NADOG community for free. Learn about and discuss modern and advanced software development, operations, governance, DevOps, DevSecOps, AI, cloud-native, Kubernetes, CICD, and more.

Dogs are said to suffer from high sodium in blood plasma or hypernatremia if their blood plasma sodium ion concentration goes beyond 150 mE/L. What causes hypernatremia in dogs, the common types, and what signs do you expect?

What is Excess Sodium in the Blood? Sodium is a mineral in your dog’s blood that is controlled by aldosterone (a hormone) produced by the adrenal glands. This hormone lets the kidneys know when to save sodium from the urine and when to let it go (through urination).
