A Study to Evaluate Copeptin as a Biomarker for Central Diabetes Insipidus Development Following Pituitary Surgery

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to investigate if a blood test measuring copeptin within 24 hours following pituitary surgery could predict development of diabetes insipidus (increased urination and thirst with fluid balance problems) as opposed to the clinical methods we currently use.
