Hyperkalemia in the elderly. [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry, 1984 Abstract Hyperkalemia is a common and potentially dangerous condition in elderly patients. These subjects are more likely to have a disease or be taking medications that may induce this disorder. We describe three such cases where the increased concentration of potassium in plasma resulted from decreased renal excretion of this ion, and ...

Predicting Hyperkalemia in the ICU and Evaluation of Generalizability and Interpretability [PDF]
AAAI 2021 Workshop: Trustworthy AI for Healthcare, 2021 Hyperkalemia is a potentially life-threatening condition that can lead to fatal arrhythmias. Early identification of high risk patients can inform clinical care to mitigate the risk. While hyperkalemia is often a complication of acute kidney injury (AKI), it also occurs in the absence of AKI.

European Journal of Internal Medicine, 2015 Hyperkalemia occurs frequently in hospitalized patients and is of particular concern for those who have undergone surgery, with postoperative care provided by clinicians of many disciplines. This review describes the normal physiology and how multiple perioperative factors can disrupt potassium homeostasis and lead to severe elevations in plasma ...

Towards Bloodless Potassium Measurement from ECG using Neuro-Fuzzy Systems [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Potassium disorders are generally asymptomatic, potentially lethal, and common in patients with renal or cardiac disease. The morphology of the electrocardiogram (ECG) signal is very sensitive to the changes in potassium ions, so ECG has a high potential for detecting dyskalemias before laboratory results.

Nebivolol induced hyperkalemia: case report
Acta Clinica Croatica, 2016 In this article, we document a conclusive case of nebivolol-induced hyperkalemia for the first time in the known medical literature. Hyperkalemia is associated with serious conditions such as cardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death.

Modern Approaches to the Management of Patients with Hyperkaliemia
Архивъ внутренней медицины, 2022 Hyperkalemia is the most common electrolyte imbalance in clinical practice. Hyperkalemia can be caused by an increased intake of potassium into the body, the shift of potassium out of cells or an abnormal renal potassium excretion.

Myocardial ischemic effects on cardiac electro-mechanical activity [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 In this work, we investigated the effect of varying strength of Hyperkalemia and Hypoxia, in human cardiac tissue with a local ischemic subregion, on the electrical and mechanical activity of healthy and ischemic zones of the cardiac muscle. The Monodomain model in a deforming domain is taken with the addition of mechanical feedback and stretch ...

Extreme Hyperkalemia in a Hemodialysis Patient Presenting with Cardiac Arrhythmia
Bezmiâlem Science, 2019 Hyperkalemia is commonly seen in hemodialysis patients and is a potentially life-threatening condition. Serum potassium concentration greater than 10 mEq/L is defined as extreme hyperkalemia.
