Volume Assessment 2010

Old Paradigm Na + = Volume H 2 O = Tonicity TBW ICFECF Blood

Signs & Symptoms: Volume Overload Left sided failure –DOE –Orthopnea 90% sensitivity corr c pcwp –PND Right-sided Failure –Abdominal pain –Early satiety –Nausea/vomiting Non-specific –Fatigue –Feeling cold –Altered mentation

Physical Exam For Volume Excess States Lung ascultation – rales (20% with inc pcwp) CVS – S3 JVP (70% sens/79% spec) –Rondot sign, abd-jugular reflux (inc sens/spec to 80%) / Valsalva maneuver (82% predictive) Edema (50%, less in young adults/children)

How can sodium be made osmotically inactive? Macrophages regulate salt-dependent volume and blood pressure by a vascular endothelial growth factor-C–dependent buffering mechanism Agnes Machnik1, Wolfgang Neuhofer2, Jonathan Jantsch1,3, Anke Dahlmann1, Tuomas Tammela4,Katharina Machura5, Joon-Keun Park6, Franz-Xaver Beck2, Dominik N Mu¨ller7, Wolfgang Derer8,Jennifer Goss1, Agata Ziomber1, Peter Dietsch9, Hubertus Wagner10, Nico van Rooijen11, Armin Kurtz5,Karl F Hilgers1, Kari Alitalo4, Kai-Uwe Eckardt1, Friedrich C Luft7,8, Dontscho Kerjaschki12 & Jens Titze1

1. High salt diet leads to hypertonic sodium accumulation in skin via hyperplasia of lymphcapillaries.

2. Activation of tonicity-responsive enhancer binding protein (TonEBP) in mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS) cells infiltrating the interstitium of the skin LS vs. HS

3. TonEBP binds the promoter of the gene encoding vascular endothelial growth factor-C

4. MPS depletion or VEGF-C trapping by soluble VEGF receptor-3 blocks VEGF-C signaling, augments interstitial hypertonic volume retention, decreases endothelial nitric oxide synthase expression and elevates blood pressure in response to HSD. Extracellular volumeIntracellular volume Clondronate liposomes deplete MPS, PBS liposomes were controls
