Overview
- Polyuria is defined as urine output more than 2 L/24 hours, or 30 ml/kg/24 hours. There are 3 pathophysiologic causes of polyuria: increased thirst (idiopathic, psychogenic polydepsia, hypothalamic disease, and medications), central diabetes insipidus (DI) (decreased secretion of arginine vasopressin (AVP)), and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (DI) (renal resistance to AVP).[1]
- Nocturnal polyuria (NP), characterized by overproduction of urine at night (more than 20%-33% of total 24-hour urine volume depending on age). It can be caused by intake, urological, nephrological, hormonal, sleep, and cardiovascular factors. [2]
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Common causes [3] [2]
- The most common causes of polyuria are:
- Psychogenic polydipsia
- Diabetes insipidus DI (central and nephrogenic)
- Chronic kidney disease (CKD)
- Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (DM)
- Nocturnal Polyuria (NP) can be caused by different medical conditions including:
- Congestive heart failure (CHF)
- Diabetes mellitus (DM)
- Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)
- Peripheral edema
- Excessive nighttime fluid intake
- Abnormalities in antidiuretic hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) secretion can cause overproduction of urine at night
- Nocturnal Polyuria Syndrome, in the absence of any medical condition, it can be due to impaired circadian release of Arginine vasopressin(AVP).
Diagnosis
- Water deprivation test combined with desmopressin administration is the diagnostic gold standard, it differentiates between the causes of the polyuria‐polydipsia syndrome.
- The c‐terminal portion of the larger precursor peptide of Arginine Vasopressin AVP (co-peptin), has been evaluated in the setting of polyuria‐polydipsia syndrome, can be useful for the differential diagnosis. [4]
