Hyperkalemia must be handled immediately after it occurs, otherwise it can cause malignant arrhythmias and even endanger life. The first step is to stop potassium supplements, such as potassium chloride sustained-release tablets; the second step is to stop potassium-sparing diuretics, such as spironolactone and other drugs. We can administer calcium intravenously to antagonize the toxic effects of high potassium on the heart. Additionally, we can use high glucose with insulin and intravenously drip sodium bicarbonate, which can promote the movement of potassium into cells. We can also use diuretics to excrete potassium through urine. If the treatment effect is poor after medication, we can use bedside hemodialysis to reduce blood potassium.
