Pediatric Central Diabetes Insipidus due to Arginine Vasopressin Deficiency in the Perianesthetic Period.

The purpose of this concise review is to provide a practical approach to inpatient management of pediatric patients with central diabetes insipidus due to arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP-D), as well as provide recommendations specific to the perianesthetic period. AVP-D poses significant challenges in perianesthetic management. A multidisciplinary approach to the perianesthetic management of AVP-D can optimize patient outcomes and reduce the risk of complications. Implementing structured protocols that address fluid management, medication dosing, and postoperative care is essential for enhancing safety and optimizing perianesthetic outcomes in this patient population.
