Hyperkalemia management in real-world settings (Electrolytes — Lecture 5)

How to manage acute hyperkalemia in real-world inpatient settings, we will discuss the diagnosis of hyperkalemia, causes of pseudohyperkalemia, the severity of hyperkalemia, EKG changes related to hyperkalemia, Cardiac stabilization with IV calcium, potassium shifting techniques with insulin, albuterol, bicarb drip, and elimination techniques with IV loop diuretics and hemodialysis. ✅Sign up for video summaries using this link:https://substack.com/@rahamneh?utm_so... ✅You can also sign up for PDF summaries using this link: https://mailchi.mp/7c3ed698f57b/2lqb8... ✅Email: [email protected] ✅My ebook "Inpatient diabetes management": https://rahamneh.gumroad.com/l/Inpati... ✅My ebook "Antibiotics in Clinical Practice": https://rahamneh.gumroad.com/l/jmorlb ✅Follow me on Instagram: www.instagram.com/rahamneh_md/ ✅Follow me on TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@rahamnehmd Chapters: 0:00 Introduction to hyperkalemia management 01:15 Diagnosis of hyperkalemia 02:13 First test to do if the patient is hyperkalemic 02:42 Pseudohyperkalemia 04:09 Hyperkalemia-induced EKG changes 05:52 The severity of hyperkalemia 06:52 The impact of hyperkalemia chronicity on treatment 07:24 The management of mild hyperkalemia 07:46: Drugs known to cause hyperkalemia 09:19 The management of moderate hyperkalemia 11:19 Volume resuscitation in hyperkalemia 13:02 The management of severe hyperkalemia 13:46 The use of IV calcium in critical hyperkalemia for cardiac stabilization 14:35 Potassium shifting techniques 14:43 The use of insulin in the treatment of critical hyperkalemia 15:38: The use of beta 2 agonists (Albuterol) in the treatment of critical hyperkalemia 16:20 The use of epinephrine in the treatment of critical hyperkalemia 16:42: The role of Bicarb (NaHCO3) drip 17:36 Potassium elimination via renal route with IV loop Diuretics and hemodialysis. 19:36 Patient's volume status assessment before giving diuretics 20:48 The use of Fludrocortisone in hyperkalemia treatment Channels that watch our content, watch these channels also: ICU advantage ( @ICUAdvantage ) MedCram ( @Medcram ) Osmosis ( @osmosis ) MedicosisPerfectionalis ( @MedicosisPerfectionalis ) MednerdDrWaqasFazal @MedNerdDrWaqasFazal Rhesus medicine @rhesusmedicine
