Summary Introduction

To determine:

The effect of hypertonic glucose solution on the plasma antidiuretic hormone (ADH)  levels and urine volume of Yuka who as supposed to be given normal saline.

Introduction:

Osmoreceptors are the cells present in the hypothalamus of the brain that detect the change in the pH of the body fluids. As soon as the osmotic concentration of the body increases, the osmoreceptors activates the secretion of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) hormone that signals the kidney to retain water in the body.
