ABC om Hyperkalemi

Hedbäck, Tore LU and Chantzi Christos, Dimitrios (2023) In Lakartidningen 120.
Abstract

Hyperkalemia is a relatively common electrolyte abnormality that in serious cases can lead to life-threatening arrhythmias. There are a number of factors that can contribute to hyperkalemia, and in most cases some level of kidney failure is present. The management of hyperkalemia depends on the underlying cause and the level of potassium. This paper briefly examines the pathophysiological mechanisms behind hyperkalemia, with a special focus on treatment.
