  • Urine osmolality >100 mOsm/kg at some level of decreased effective osmolality
  • Clinical euvolaemia
  • Urine sodium concentration >30 mmol/l with normal dietary salt and water intake
  • Absence of adrenal, thyroid, pituitary or renal insufficiency
  • No recent use of diuretic agents

Supplemental criteria

  • Serum uric acid <0.24 mmol/l (<4 mg/dl)
  • Serum urea <3.6 mmol/l (<21.6 mg/dl)
  • Failure to correct hyponatraemia after 0.9% saline infusion
