Daptomycin‐induced hyperkalemia: A case report and brief description of mechanism

Clinical Case Reports, 2023
Key Clinical Message Daptomycin causes serious side effects like rhabdomyolysis at high doses. At lower doses it can cause isolated hyperkalemia without frank rhabdomyolysis.

Predictors for repeated hyperkalemia and potassium trajectories in high-risk patients - A population-based cohort study.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Understanding predictors and trajectories of increased potassium may inform testing and treatment of hyperkalemia. We examined predictors for repeated hyperkalemia among patients after first-time renin angiotensin system inhibitor (RASi) prescription ...

Serum potassium levels of patients on angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors – A cross-sectional study

National Journal of Physiology, Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 2020
Background: Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are commonly used in clinical practice to treat hypertension. Hyperkalemia develops in approximately 10% of outpatients within a year of prescription of these drugs.

ECG alterations suggestive of hyperkalemia in normokalemic versus hyperkalemic patients

BMC Emergency Medicine, 2019
Background In periarrest situations and during resuscitation it is essential to rule out reversible causes. Hyperkalemia is one of the most common, reversible causes of periarrest situations.

Hyperkalemia in chronic peritoneal dialysis patients

Renal Failure, 2022
Background. Chronic peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients often develop hypokalemia but less commonly hyperkalemia. Methods. We explored incidence and mechanisms of hyperkalemia in 779 serum samples from 33 patients on PD for 1 − 59 months.

Hyperkalemia-induced brugada phenocopy: A rare electrocardiogram manifestation

Journal of the Practice of Cardiovascular Sciences, 2022
Hyperkalemia-induced Brugada ECG pattern is rare. Although the association of hyperkalemia with Brugada pattern is a known entity, it is also very important to be aware of this presentation as the treatment of this Brugada Phenocopy is different from ...
