The dysrhythmia that happens after open-heart surgery has at times been attributed to potassium depletion. Therefore, in some centers, patients scheduled for open-heart surgery are routinely given potassium supplements. We have assessed the potassium status of 32 patients prior to cardiac surgery (1...
Heart failure: Neprilysin inhibition attenuates risk of hyperkalaemia in HFrEF There are many risks in medicine, especially for patients with heart failure (HF). Some of the risks that patients with heart failure and clinicians alike fear are those of potassium excess (hyperkalemia) and potassium ...
Patients with heart failure engage in a delicate balancing act all year, taking care not to drink too much liquid because the weakened heart muscle cannot cope with excess fluid. But what are they to do during those blast-furnace days of July and August? Perspiration depletes the body of fl...

Guest over a year ago My husband has had a triple heart bypass. He is well and active but the doctor has told him that his potassium is a bit high. Should he be treated for this or can we do something ourselves with his diet?

Sometimes, patients with hyperkalemia report vague symptoms including: Nausea Fatigue Muscle weakness Tingling sensations More serious symptoms of hyperkalemia include slow heartbeat and weak pulse. Severe hyperkalemia can result in a fatal cardiac standstill (heart stoppage). Generally, a slowly rising p...
Potassium homeostasis is largely regulated by the kidney accounting for excretion of 90% of daily potassium loss.1 Therefore patients with renal failure, acute or chronic, who have impaired regulatory mechanisms are prone to hyperkalaemia. Patients with normal renal function eliminate only 5–10% of...
