What is Diabetes insipidus? What is diabetes insipidus and how does it differ from diabetes mellitus? How is it diagnosed and treated? Diabetes Insipidus is a disorder that is characterized by intense thirst and a greatly increased output of diluted urine. In diabetes insipidus you are either producing too little of the antidiuretic hormone (ADH) or it is that your kidneys are not responding normally to the output of ADH. Most people develop diabetes insipidus in early childhood or early adulthood. It is commonly found in more males than females. It has a tendency to develop after surgery, illness or a major head injury. Urination is frequently increased causing you to crave liquids, especially cold water, in great quantities. If you are unable to keep up with your body's demand for liquids or if an accident or illness prevents you from drinking sufficient quantities, you may become dehydrated. Patients with diabtetes insipidus may need to urinate every 30 minutes to an hour throughout the day and night. Diabetes insipidus is not related to Diabetes Mellitus (which is the bodies inability to regulate insulin). In Diabetes Mellitus the body has trouble using insulin to turn sugar into energy.

FACT: Diabetes insipidus is characterized by production of abnormally large volumes of dilute urine. A 24-hour urine output greater than 50 ml/kg is characteristic. MYTH: Diabetes insipidus is caused by an actual or relative deficiency of insulin. FACT: The three main types of diabetes insipidus-pituitary, nephrogenic, and primary polydipsia-are all related to antidiuretic hormone (ADH), not insulin. Decreased secretion or decreased action of ADH prevents the hormone from acting on the renal tubules to retain water and concentrate urine.

OVERIG Diabetes Insipidus Synoniem DI water diabetes sub-typen Neurogene (centrale) Diabetes Insipidus Nefrogene Diabetes Insipidus Gestagene Diabetes Insipidus Dipsogene Diabetes Insipidus Korte beschrijving Diabetes Insipidus (DI) is een vorm van diabetes die niets te maken heeft met diabetes mellitus (suikerziekte). Diabetes insipidus betekent letterlijk ‘smakeloze doorstroom’. Dit doelt op de afwezigheid van suiker in de urine. Er zijn wel overeenkomsten met diabetes mellitus. DI is een aandoening die zowel aangeboren kan zijn, als ook verworven als gevolg van bijvoorbeeld een tumor. DI ontstaat wanneer de regulering van vochtopname door het lichaam en vochtuitscheiding verstoord is. Deze vochtbalans wordt gereguleerd door ADH (het anti-diuretisch hormoon of wel vasopressine) ADH gaat de productie van urine tegen. Dit hormoon wordt geproduceerd in de hypothalamus (een belangrijk centrum in de hersenen) en opgeslagen in de hypofyse. (een klier die aan de hersenen hangt) De hypofyse scheidt ADH uit aan het bloed. Er is sprake van DI wanneer het ADH niet of onvoldoende wordt geproduceerd, of als de nier niet reageert op het ADH. (resistentie) Dit kan leiden tot vier verschillende vormen van diabetes insipidus: 1. Neurogene diabetes insipidus ontstaat door een hormonale verstoring in de hersenen, waardoor een tekort aan ADH optreedt. Oorzaken hiervoor kunnen onder andere zijn: een tumor, hersenoperatie, een hoofdtrauma of infecties.

Links Einleitung Klagt ein Patient über Zunahme der Harnausscheidung und vermehrten Durst, so denken wir eher an einen Diabetes mellitus als an einen Diabetes insipidus. Tatsächlich ist der Diabetes insipidus mit einer Prävalenz von 3/100'000 eine seltene Erkrankung, seine Leitsymptome Polyurie (Urinvolumen von über 3 Litern oder 50 ml/kg Körpergewicht pro 24 Stunden), Polydipsie (Trinkmenge von über 3,5 Litern pro 24 Stunden), Nykturie und - bei Kindern - Enuresis nocturna können jedoch die Lebensqualität stark beeinträchtigen. Es ist äusserst unangenehm, die Arbeit und den Schlaf mit Gängen auf die Toilette immer wieder unterbrechen zu müssen. Bei Diabetes insipidus besteht ein Missverhältnis zwischen hoher Serum-Osmolalität und niedriger Urin-Osmolalität , weil die Nieren nicht oder nur in ungenügendem Masse fähig sind, den Urin durch Wasserrückresorption zu konzentrieren. Die Osmolalität, definiert als molare Menge aller osmotisch wirksamen Teilchen pro Kilogramm Wasser, ist der beste Parameter zur Beurteilung des Wasserhaushaltes. Wenn keine signifikante Hyperglykämie oder Azotämie vorliegt, so besteht ein direkt proportionales Verhältnis zwischen der Serum-Osmolalität und der Serum-Natriumkonzentration. Diese ist somit in den meisten Fällen ebenfalls aussagekräftig.

It is not the same condition as the more commonly known diabetes mellitus What is going on in the body? When a person has diabetes insipidus, it is almost as if everything he or she drinks passes right through the kidneys. The 4 forms of DI are: central or neurogenic, in which a defect in the brain causes a shortage of vasopressin, or antidiuretic hormone (ADH). This hormone normally tells the kidneys how much urine to release. nephrogenic, in which a kidney defect causes an abnormal response to vasopressin
