Background and objective: Dysnatremia in critically ill patients is frequent and is associated with higher in-hospital mortality. There is recent evidence that variations in serum sodium concentration upon admission to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) are associated with mortality in these patients. For this reason, the present investigation aims to determine whether the increase in serum sodium concentration in the first 48 hours is associated with an increase in mortality in patients hospitalized in the ICU of the Adolfo Guevara Velasco EsSalud-Cusco National Hospital. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was carried out in patients hospitalized in the ICU of the Adolfo Guevara Velasco EsSalud-Cusco National Hospital between July 2020 and December 2021. Main results: Generalized linear model analysis of the Poison family was used to determine the adjusted association between the mortality variable and the difference variable between the mean of serum sodium measurements between 24 and 48 hours after admission to the ICU and the first serum sodium measurement within 24 hours of ICU admission. In total, 389 patients were included for analysis. An increase in serum sodium ≥ 5 mmol/liter in the first 48 hours was independently associated with an increased risk of in-hospital mortality (aRR 1.83, 95% CI [1.32–2.54], p < 0.001), and this result persisted in patients with intracranial pathology (aRR 2.82, 95% CI [1.46–5.48], p = 0.002) and without intracranial pathology (aRR 1.7, 95% CI [1.15–2.46], p = 0.008). Conclusions: An increase in serum sodium ≥ 5 mmol/liter in the first 48 hours was independently associated with greater in-hospital mortality in patients hospitalized in the ICU of the Adolfo Guevara Velasco EsSalud-Cusco National Hospital.
