A total of 29 patients with severe hemorrhagic fever associated with the renal syndrome were studied for impact of extracorporeal hemodialysis on the activity of the renin-aldosterone system (RAS), plasma vasopressin and osmolality and the levels of the major osmotically active agents, as well as the circadian urine output and blood pressures. In patients with oliguria there was a significant activation of RAS, an increase in plasma vasopressin ad osmolality due to the increment of the urea in presence of hyponatremia. Hemodialysis led to a temporary normalization of plasma aldosterone and vasopressin levels and a decrease in blood pressure. No significant changes were documented in the activity of the plasma renin and circadian urinary output. A direct correlation was established between the plasma osmolality and the levels of vasopressin. In patients with polyuria developed in presence of hypernatremic hyperosmia plasma vasopressin elevated and aldosterone dropped.
