    Author: Vishwajeet S, Aneesh S.
    Journal: Int Urol Nephrol; 2005; 37(2):275-6. PubMed ID: 16142555.
    Abstract:
    Uroflowmetry is a standard non-invasive urodynamic test for the evaluation of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). For a reproducible study, the patients are asked to void after consuming enough oral fluids to have full bladder before the study. We report a case of water intoxication due to excessive oral fluid intake leading to water intoxication, hyponatremia and seizure.
