1 -- The patient with excessive thirst, increased urination and a medical diagnosis of diabetes insipidus is at risk for Imbalanced Fluid Volume due to the patient’s excess volume loss that can increase the serum levels of sodium. Excess Fluid Volume is not an issue for patients with diabetes insipidus, especially during the early stages of treatment. Imbalanced Nutrition and Ineffective Tissue Perfusion do not apply.
