HYPOKALEMIA

Serum K level < 3.5 mmol/L (normal: 3.5 – 5.0 mmol/L)

True hypokalemia : decreased of serum K level

False (spurious) hypokalemia : − false in laboratory result − in extreme leucocytosis (in vitro), wbc uptake kalium

in the test tube

Page 4: Electrolyte Imbalance

DIAGNOSTIC APPROACH OF HYPOKALEMIA

Hypokalemia

Kalium depletionTranscelular shift• insulin therapy• beta2 agonists• alkalosis

Urine K <20 meq/L• GI losses• decreased intake

Urine K>20 meq/L • renal losses

Viarable PH• post obstructive • ATN recovery• aminoglycoside

Metabolic acidosis • RTA • Diabetic ketoacidosis

Page 5: Electrolyte Imbalance

CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS

• Cardiac• ventricular irritability• abnormal ECG• predisposition of digitalis intoxication• coronary artery spasm

• Neuromuscular• muscle spasm, tetany, paralysis• gastrointestinal (constipation, ileus)

• Renal• polyuria• increased amoniogenesis

• Endocrene• carbohydrate intolerance

Page 6: Electrolyte Imbalance

MANAGEMENT

Emergency or not emergenny ?• clinical manifestation• ECG• degree of hypo K

Estimated degree of decreases in total body kalium• decreased in average of 0,3 mmol/L for each 100 mmol of

kalium depletion

Serum K level Deficit

Mild 3.00 – 3.4 meq/L 150 – 200 meq/L

Moderate 2.00 – 3.0 meq/L 200 – 400 meq/L

Severe < 2 meq/L 500 – 1000 meq/L

Page 7: Electrolyte Imbalance

Treat the underlying causes

In mild hypo K : oral K preparation 600 -1200 meq/day

- small risk of hyper K

MANAGEMENT

Page 8: Electrolyte Imbalance

• Moderate and severe hypo K : intravenous administration

• do not give direct i.v injection : CRIME

• intravenous drips peripheral or central venous line

– 10 – 20 meq/hr : into peripheral vein

– > 40 meq/hr : into central vein with ECG monitor

• Monitoring K level carefully (every 4-6 hrs)

Page 9: Electrolyte Imbalance
Page 10: Electrolyte Imbalance

Definition :• Plasma potassium consentration > 5. meq/L

• (N. 3.5 -.5 meq/L)

----- excess concentration K ion in extracellular fluid

HYPERKALEMIA

Page 11: Electrolyte Imbalance

Causes of Hyper K1. Extrarenal2. Renal

Page 12: Electrolyte Imbalance

1. Extrarenal causes of hyper K

A. Increased intakeExogenous sources

potassium supplement

stored PRC

salt substitute

Endogenous sourcerhabdomyolysis

tumor lysis syndrome

catabolic state

Page 13: Electrolyte Imbalance

B. Compartment shift a. inhibition of Na/K – ATPase

• insulin resistance/deficiency

• B2 adrenergic deficiency/resistance

• Familial hyperkalemic periodic paralysis

b. Altered transcellular electrochemical K gradient

• inorganic metabolic acidosis

• ECF hypertonicity/hyperosmolar state :

• (hyperglycemia, mannitol

Page 14: Electrolyte Imbalance

2. Renal causes of hyper K• AKI• CKD• Hypoaldosteronism (secondary/primary)

Page 15: Electrolyte Imbalance

Clinical feature • often asymptomatic• neuromuscular disturbance (K>6.5 meq/L)

• distal parasthesia• generalized muscle weakness• ascending flaccid paralysis• ventilatory failure

• sudden cardiac death (K>7-7.5 meq/L)

Page 16: Electrolyte Imbalance

ECG changes• K+, 5-6 meq/L

• 50% no ECG changes• peaked T, shortened QT

• K+, 6-7 meq/L• Prolonged QR, AV dissociation • flattening and loss P• widening QRS complex

• K+ > 7 – 8 meq/L - VT

Page 17: Electrolyte Imbalance

Pseudo Hyper K• Caused by released of K from damage cell in vitro ------ 1-2 meq/L artifactual release

• hemolysis• thrombocytosis • leukocytosis• familial psudohyper K

Page 18: Electrolyte Imbalance

MANAGEMENTHyper K >6.5 meq/L : medical emergency

- therapy should begin immediately

1. Stabilization of cardiac membrane

- 10 ml Ca gluconas 10% over 2-3 min into large vein

- evident within minutes and lasts for 30 to 60 min

- represents a temporizing measure only

- plasma K concentration is unaltered

Page 19: Electrolyte Imbalance

Management2. Transcellular redistribution a. insulin and dextrose --- activated insulin receptor stimulates N+/K+-ATPase driving cellular uptake of K - 1 iu insulin setiap 5 gr glukosa - each 10 iu insulin can expected to lower K by 0.5-1.5 meq/l within 15 min, lasting 2-4 hrs b. sodium bicarbonate - increasing the pH of ECF (100 mmol over 1-2 hrs) - when hyper K associated by severe inorganic acidosis c. Salbutamol - meter dose inhaler, nebulized, intravenous

Page 20: Electrolyte Imbalance

Management3. Removal of excess

- loop diuretic

- cation exchange resin (kayexilate)

- hemodialysis or CRRT

- laxantia (MgS04)

Plasma sondium (Na+) concentration : the ratio between sodium and water in the plasma

Normal : 135 – 145 mmol/LHyponatremia : < 135 mmol/LIs, Na+ loss or water gain

HYPONATREMIA

Page 23: Electrolyte Imbalance

Types and Causes of Hyponatremia

PseudohyponatremiaA rare measurement artefact caused by reduced plasma water, as a result of excess lipids (triglycerides) or abnormal proteins (e.g. IgM)

Hyperosmolar (iso-osmolar and other) hyponatremia• Hyperglycaemia (and other impairment solutes, but not urea)• Surgical (e.g. transurethral prostatectomy) irrigation fluids (mannitol,

sorbitol, glycine)• Subarachnoid haemorrhage

True (hypo-osmolar) hyponatremia ECF ( TBNa+) – reduced effective arterial volume (Na+ loss) ECF ( TBNa+) – reduced effective arterial volume (oedema) ECF ( TBNa+) – normal effective arterial volume (no oedema),

SIADH, drugs, stress, cortisol, thyroxine)

Page 24: Electrolyte Imbalance

The formula of osmolality

Posm = 2[Na+] + [glucose]/18 + [BUN]/2.8

Page 25: Electrolyte Imbalance

SALT LOSING NEPHRITIS

• Nephritis with an excessive urinary loss of Na• hypovolemic hyponatremia• urinary Na+ >20 mmol/L• mostly without hypertension

• medullary cystic disease• chronic interstitial nephritis• polycystic kidney disease• analgetic nephropathy• partial urinary tract obstruction• chronic glomerulonephritis (rarely)

Page 28: Electrolyte Imbalance

Diagnosis criteria for SIADH(Syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion

Essential• ECF effective osmolality below 270 mosmol/kg water• Inappropriate urinary concentration (> 100 mosmol/kg)• Clinical euvolemia• Increased urinary [Na+] while on a normal salt and water intake• Absence of adrenal, thyroid, pituitary or renal insufficiency or

diuretic use

Supplemental• Abnormal water load test (inability to excrete at least 90% of 20

mL/kg water load in 4 h and/or failure to dilute urinary osmolality to below 100 mosmol/kg)

• Plasma ADH level inappropriately raised relative to plasma osmolality

• No significant correction of plasma [Na+] with volume expansion but improvement after fluid restriction

CLINICAL MANIFESTATION:

Symtoms of hyponatremia due to the consequences of plasma hypoosmolality

HypoosmolalityMove of water from extra to intracellular

intracellular edema

Particularly in CNS

Symptoms:

- Lethargy- confusion - nausea-vometing

- muscle cramps - seizures- coma

Note: • Permanent neurologic damage may be occur in premenopausal women

- the cause is not well understood- so: hyponatremic women must be watched carefully

Lauriat, SM. J. Am Soc Nephrol. 8 : 1997

Page 30: Electrolyte Imbalance

• postoperative menstrual women• elderly women in thiazide diuretics• children• psychiatric polydipsic patients• hypoxemic patients

PATIENTS AT RISK FOR PERMANENT NEUROLOGIC COMPLICATION

Page 31: Electrolyte Imbalance

Important questions must be answered :

1. Is the patients symptomatic ? Symptomatic patients have to treat aggressively but promptly

2. is the hyponatremia - acute (before 48 hrs) ? - chronic (after 48 hrs) ?

Acute hyponatremic, carries a greater risk of permanent neurologic sequelae if the correction is not expeditiously

3. Whats the Na+ level ? Severe hypoNa+ is Na level<120 mmol/L target of treatment is Na level 130 mmol/L

4. Does the patients have Risk Factors for osmotic demyelination syndrome ?

- complication of too rapid Na+ replacement

MANAGEMENT

Page 33: Electrolyte Imbalance

HypoN+ present for <48 hrs• treatment should be promptly – risk of osmotic

demyelination • emergency correction with hypertonic saline (3%)

• infusion at the rate 1-2 mL perKg/hr• loop diuretic enhances solute free water excretion &

hastens the return to a normal serum Na• if severe neurologic symptoms (seizure, coma) are

present infusion rate may at 4-6 ml/kg/hr• until the symptoms resolved or Na+ level 130 mmol/L

• serum Na+ should be carefully monitored (every 4-6 hrs)

SEVERE ACUTE SYMPTOMATIC HYPONa+

Page 34: Electrolyte Imbalance

HypoNa+ present for >48 hrs or the duration is unknown• increase the serum Na+ by 10% with hypertonic saline

infusion at rate 1,5 -2 ml/kg/hr (or in 4-6 hrs)• after the initial correction, do not exceed a correction

rate of 1-1,5 ml/kg/hr• coadministration of loop diuretic• until the symptoms resolved or Na+ level 130 mmol/L• do not increase the serum Na+ by more than 15 mmol/L

24 hrs• serum Na+ should be carefully monitored (every 4-6 hrs)
