The Effect of Posture and of Congestion of the Head on Sodium Excretion in Normal Subjects

J. M. LEWIS JR. 1; R. M. BUIE M.D.1; S. M. SEVIER M.D.1; T. R. HARRISON M.D.1

1 From the Department of Internal Medicine, Southwestern Medical School of the University of Texas, Dallas, Texas.

In healthy young subjects the sodium excretion is decidedly less in the sitting than in the recumbent posture. The difference can be partially overcome by compression of the neck in the sitting position. Some possible implications of these observations will be considered in the subsequent communications.
