Abstract

Since the original description by Bartter and Schwartz,1–3 the syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion (SIADH) has progressed from a rare syndrome to one of the most frequent metabolic disorders encountered in hospitalized patients. The diverse diseases that cause this syndrome, the clinical features, and the criteria for establishing the diagnosis, as well as the therapeutic options for this disorder are discussed in this chapter.
