Show Notes
Hyperkalemia can send our patients to cardiac arrest in an instant. Casey Patrick and Jordan Anderson begin with some background physiology review on the importance of potassium to cellular function. They then move on to describing specific patient characteristics and ECG findings found in patients with hyperkalemia, and close with MCHD’s current protocol to preemptively treat these patients en route to the hospital.
