What causes high Sodium and low Packed cell volume?

High Sodium and low Packed cell volume can be caused by many reasons.

If your Sodium is in between 136 mmol/L and 145 mmol/L and your Packed cell volume is in between 41 % and 49.5 % then you need not worry as these are the normal ranges for Sodium and Packed cell volume respectively. But if your levels are lesser or greater than the above values, then there may be some problem in your body.

Some examples of conditions that can increase or decrease Sodium levels include:

• Conditions that lead to too much anti-diuretic hormone (ADH)
• Cushing syndrome
• Nephrotic syndrome
• Diabetes insipidus
• Excess fluid buildup in the body (edema) caused by heart failure

Normal range of Sodium : 136 - 145 mmol/L

Ideal values of Sodium depending on age :

Age	Ideal Sodium value
<5 years	138.396
5-10 years	140.835
10-15 years	143.317
15-20 years	143.272
20-25 years	143.227
25-30 years	143.183
30-35 years	143.139
35-40 years	143.094
40-45 years	143.049
45-50 years	143.005
50-55 years	142.961
55-60 years	142.917
60-70 years	142.872
70-80 years	142.827
80-90 years	142.783
90-100 years	142.739
>100 years	142.695

High Sodium and low Packed cell volume can be caused by a lot of reasons. If you take Sodium and Packed cell volume blood tests and the results are higher than 145 mmol/L for Sodium and lower than 41 % for Packed cell volume, your physician may recommend more tests to figure out the problem. You might also get these tests if your physician thinks you have some other disease.

How the Sodium and Packed cell volume Tests Are Done :

If your doctor wants Sodium and Packed cell volume tests on you, you may need to go through these tests. During the Sodium and Packed cell volume blood tests, a pathologist will put a needle into your veins and take out a small quantity of blood. A pathologist is a physician in the medical field who thoroughly studies the causes and effects of disease. Within a few hours you will get your Sodium and Packed cell volume Test reports by your pathologist.
