Management of severe hyperkalemia without hemodialysis: Case report and literature review
چکیده انگلیسی

PurposeTo report a case of severe hyperkalemia successfully managed without the use of hemodialysis and to provide a review of the literature regarding the management of severe hyperkalemia.MethodsA clinical case report from the medical-surgical intensive care unit of a teaching hospital and a literature review are presented. The case involves a 59-year old man with diabetes mellitus, essential hypertension, and gout, who presented to hospital with severe hyperkalemia (K+ = 10.4 mEq/L) and normal renal function. He was treated with intravenous fluids, sodium bicarbonate, calcium chloride, insulin, calcium resonium, and furosemide.ResultsThe hyperkalemia resolved with conservative treatment within 8 hours, and dialytic therapy was not required. The literature review supported an initial conservative management approach in stable patients with intact renal function.ConclusionsHemodialysis is not necessary for all cases of severe hyperkalemia and should be reserved for patients with acute or chronic renal failure or those with life-threatening hyperkalemia unresponsive to more conservative measures.
