Description/Abstract:
NORMAL SUBJECTS, PATIENTS WITH CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE UNDER TREATMENT, AND PATIENTS WITH OTHER DISEASES WERE STUDIED FOLLOWING A SINGLE INTRAVENOUS INJECTION OF SODIUM-24 TO LEARN THE RATE OF DIFFUSION OF SODIUM THROUGH THE VASCULAR WALL AND ITS RATE OF EXCRETION INTO THE URINE AND SWEAT. THE INDIVIDUAL SUBJECTS IN ALL GROUPS SHOWED A CONSIDERABLE SPREAD IN THE BLOOD AND URINE CONCENTRATIONS AND RATES OF SODIUM CLEARED BY THE KIDNEYS.
