Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Vasopressin is increasingly being used as inotropic agent due to its catecholamine's sparing property. Vasopressin is instrumental in rapid adjustment of water excretion according to the state of body hydration. It is also used in treatment of DI; Arginine vasopressin disorder, formerly known as diabetes insipidus (DI), is a disease process that results in either decreased release of antidiuretic hormone (Anti Diuretic Hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin or Arginine Vasopressin (AVP) or reduced response to ADH, causing electrolyte imbalances. however, there are only anecdote reports discussing the precipitation of DI d/t vasopressin withdrawal. Hence, we report a case of diabetes insipidus in post Coronary artery bypass grafting after vasopressin withdrawal.
