Arginine vasopressin disorder, formerly known as diabetes insipidus (DI), is a disease process that results in either decreased release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH, also known as vasopressin or AVP) or reduced response to ADH, causing electrolyte imbalances. There are two types of arginine vasopressin disorder, namely arginine vasopressin deficiency, AVP-D, (formerly known as central DI) and arginine vasopressin resistance, AVP-R (formerly known as nephrogenic DI), and each has congenital and acquired causes. Arginine vasopressin disorder is caused by a problem with vasopressin production in the pituitary gland (deficiency) or the action of vasopressin in the kidneys (resistance). Based on the site of its pathology, it can be divided into Arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP-D) and Arginine vasopressin resistance (AVP-R). This activity reviews the etiology, presentation, evaluation, and management of diabetes insipidus and the role of the interprofessional team in evaluating, diagnosing, and managing this condition.
