Overview
Hyperkalemia develops when blood potassium levels are more than 5.1 meq/L. Hyperkalemia can be classified based on the potassium levels, duration of onset and the cause of hyperkalemia.
Classification
- Hyperkalemia may be classified according to the potassium levels as : [1][2]
- Hyperkalemia can be classified on the basis of duration as [3] :
- Hyperacute- develops in a few hours, usually in tissue breakdown or parenteral potassium supplement.
- 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.[4]
