A 17-year-old man was involved in a road traffic accident. Both femurs were fractured, and his spleen was ruptured. Two days after surgery and transfusion of 16 units of blood, the following results were found: Plasma Sodium 136 mmol/L (135–145), Potassium 6.1 mmol/L (3.5–5.0), Urea 20.9 mmol/L (2.5–7.0), Creatinine 190 umol/L (70–110), Albumin-adjusted calcium 2.40 mmol/L (2.15–2.55), Phosphate 2.8 mmol/L (0.80–1.35), Bicarbonate 17 mmol/L (24–32). The patient was producing only 10 mL of urine per hour, and a spot urinary sodium was 8 mmol/L.
