Abstract | PURPOSE: Observational studies have shown that among patients on hemodialysis, hyperkalemia is strongly associated with excess risk for cardiovascular-related hospitalizations and sudden cardiac death. However, the actual burden of hyperkalemia, the rates of its recurrence and seasonality in its variation still remain unclear. |
