Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Evaluation of effectiveness and safety of Tolvaptan in the treatment of mild-moderate symptomatic hyponatremia due to syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) in patients who underwent transsphenoidal surgery for hypothalamic-pituitary disorders.;Secondary Objective: Evaluation of mean resolution time of hyponatremia in the two groups of treatment (tolvaptan vs fluid resctriction).;Primary end point(s): Normalization of serum sodium levels in patients affected by sindrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Between 1 and 10 days

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Between 1 and 10 days;Secondary end point(s): Reduction of mean resolution time of hyponatremia in patients reated with Tolvaptan in respect to patients treated with fluid restriction
