    Author: Okura M, Okada K, Nagamine I, Yamaguchi H, Karisha K, Ishimoto Y, Ikuta T.
    Journal: Jpn J Psychiatry Neurol; 1990 Dec; 44(4):729-34. PubMed ID: 2096244.
    Abstract:
    A case of water intoxication with remarkable hyponatremia was investigated with a special reference to EEG changes during and after the episode. The patient recovered his EEG as his consciousness disturbance had improved through an intravenous infusion of high osmolality saline, correlating with the serum sodium level. Further, the clinical importance of recording EEG for water intoxication was stressed.
