Kolonoskopi öncesi bağırsak hazırlığı çoğunlukla güvenli olmakla birlikte, özellikle aşırı sıvı alımı ve eşlik eden ilaç kullanımı elektrolit dengesizliklerine yol açabilmektedir. Bu literatür bazlı vaka serileri incelemesi, polietilen glikol (PEG) bazlı bağırsak hazırlığı sonrasında görülen hiponatremi ve buna bağlı epileptik nöbet gelişimini hemşirelik bakım ve yönetimi açısından değerlendirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu derlemede, polietilen glikol (PEG) bazlı bağırsak hazırlığı sonrası gelişen şiddetli hiponatremi ve epileptik nöbet olguları, hemşirelik bakım perspektifinden sunulmaktadır. Olgu 1: Yetmiş iki yaşında erkek hastada, split-dose PEG sonrası aşırı sıvı tüketimi ve desmopressin kullanımı ile birlikte Na: 112 mEq/L’ye düşen hiponatremi ve jeneralize tonik-klonik nöbet gelişmiş, hipertonik salin tedavisi ile semptomlar düzelmiştir. Olgu 2: Yetmiş beş yaşında kadın hasta, 4 L PEG ve eşlik eden tiazid diüretik uygulaması sonrası benzer şekilde hiponatremi (Na: 112 mEq/L) ve nöbet geçirmiş, uygun tedavi ile semptomlar tamamen gerilemiştir. Olgu 3: Doksan bir yaşında kadın hasta, PEG sonrası hiponatremi (Na: 115 mEq/L) ve nöbet tablosu ile başvurmuş, sıvı-elektrolit tedavisi sonrası klinik düzelme sağlanmıştır. Ortak bulgu, PEG kullanımını takiben şiddetli hiponatremi gelişmesi ile birlikte epileptik nöbet ortaya çıkmasıdır. Tüm olgularda erken tanı ve uygun tedavi ve bakım ile iyileşme sağlanmıştır. Sonuç olarak, hemşirelik bakımında sıvı alımının kontrolü, riskli ilaçların değerlendirilmesi, yaşlı ve komorbid hastaların yakın takibi ile elektrolit bozukluklarının erken fark edilmesi hasta güvenliği açısından kritik öneme sahiptir.

Although bowel preparation prior to colonoscopy is generally safe, excessive fluid intake and concomitant medication use can lead to electrolyte imbalances. This literature-based case series review aims to evaluate hyponatremia and the development of associated epileptic seizures following polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based bowel preparation from a nursing care and management perspective. This literature review presents cases of severe hyponatremia and epileptic seizures following polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based bowel preparation from a nursing care perspective. Case 1: A 72-year-old male patient developed hyponatremia (Na: 112 mEq/L) and generalized tonic-clonic seizures following excessive fluid consumption and desmopressin use after split-dose PEG; symptoms resolved with hypertonic saline treatment. Case 2: A 75-year-old female patient experienced similar hyponatremia (Na: 112 mEq/L) and seizures after 4 L of PEG and concomitant thiazide diuretic administration; symptoms completely resolved with appropriate treatment. Case 3: A 91-year-old female patient presented with hyponatremia (Na: 115 mEq/L) and seizures following PEG administration. Clinical improvement was achieved after fluid and electrolyte therapy. The common finding is the development of severe hyponatremia following PEG administration, accompanied by epileptic seizures. In all cases, recovery was achieved with early diagnosis and appropriate treatment and care. In conclusion, controlling fluid intake in nursing care, evaluating high-risk medications, closely monitoring elderly and comorbide patients, and early detection of electrolyte imbalances are critical for patient safety.
