Apr 8th, 2021 - Hyperkalemia: The Trojan horse of pediatric transfusion?|2021|Romon I,Cortes MA,|

Apr 1st, 2021 - In critically ill patients, maintaining appropriate serum potassium concentrations requires careful supplementation to correct hypokalemia but avoid hyperkalemia. At the study institution, an institution-based, nurse-driven standardized electrolyt...

Mar 29th, 2021 - The hormone aldosterone is essential for maintaining K+ and Na+ balance and controlling blood pressure. Aldosterone has different effects if it is secreted due to hypovolemia or hyperkalemia. The kidney distal convoluted tubule (DCT) is believed t...

Mar 25th, 2021 - Primary adrenal insufficiency (Addison's disease) is a rare medical condition usually associated with hyperkalemia or normokalemia. We report a rare case of Addison's disease, coexisting with hypokalemia, requiring treatment. In this case, a 42-ye...

Mar 22nd, 2021 - In spite of the established importance of detecting angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin II receptor blocker- (ARB-) induced hyperkalemia, there have not been many studies on the time of its occurrence. We retrospectively ...

Apr 8th, 2021 - Hyperkalemia is a clinically important acute electrolyte abnormality that can result in significant morbidity and life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias. Although uncommon in the general population, hyperkalemia is much more prevalent in patients wi...

Oct 28th, 2020 - For patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), the addition of dapagliflozin (Farxiga) to a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) halved the incidence of moderate to severe hyperkalemia, a prespecified analysis of DA...

Oct 22nd, 2020 - For patients with diabetic kidney disease, finerenone, an agent from a new class of selective, nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, led to significant reductions in combined adverse renal outcomes and in combined adverse cardiovasc...
