Development of a hyponatremia screening tool (ABCDF-S score) for patients with hypertension using thiazide diuretic agents.

What Is Known And Objective: Hyponatremia is a common side effect of thiazide diuretics that can lead to increased mortality and hospitalization. A rapid and accurate screening tool is needed for rapid and appropriate management. In this study, we report on the development of a simple clinical screening tool for hyponatremia using thiazide diuretics.
