Overview

Hyperkalemia develops when blood potassium levels are more than 5.1meq/L.Hyperkalemia can be classified based on the potassium levelas as mild,moderate and severe.It is also classified on basis of duration as hyperacute,acute and chronic.Causes of hyperkalemia can also be used to classify.

==Classification [Hyperkalemia] may be classified according to the potassium levels as

Mild-Potassium levels between 5.1-6.0 meq/L
Moderate-Potassium levels between 6.2-7.0 meq/L
Severe-Potassium levels more than 7.0 meq/L

[Hyperkalemia] can be classified on the basis of duration as

Hyperacute-Develops in a few hours,usually in tissue breakdown or parenteral potassium
Acute-Develops within 48 hours,could be due to acute kidney injury.
Chronic-Develops gradually,usually due to chronic diseases such as chronic kidney disease.

[Hyperkalemia] may be classified into several subtypes based on its cause.

Excessive intake
Transcellular shift
Impaired elimination from body
Hormone deficiency such as aldosterone.
