Serum [Na] is the concentration, not

the amount, of sodium in the ECF space. If it is
abnormally low, the amount of sodium in the ECF
space is “insufficient” for the amount of water in the
ECF space. Thus serum [Na] may be low because
there is too little extracellular sodium, too much
ECW, or both. The most common cause of
hyponatremia in neonates in the first 1 or 2 days of
life is excessive fluid administration. In such
situations free water intake should be restricted.
