Title: High and dry--low and wet: the key to DI and SIADH. Author: Gildea JH. Journal: Pediatr Nurs; 1993; 19(5):478-81. PubMed ID: 8233671.

The key to differentiating these clinical entities may be found in the simple statement, high and dry; low and wet.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
