Nueva revisión de hiperkalemia aguda (BMJ 2026). Lo que cambió, y que probablemente sigas haciendo:
🔴 Dextrosa al 10%, no al 50%. La glucosada hipertónica puede EMPEORAR la hiperkalemia.
🔴 Insulina 5 U (o 0.1 U/kg, máximo 10 U). Misma caída de potasio que con 10 U, con casi la mitad de hipoglucemias (OR 0.55).
🔴 1 g de gluconato de calcio no sirve. 97% necesitó tres dosis de 1 g y una sola dosis no funcionó en NINGUNO. Dosis: 1-3 g.
🔴 El calcio no "estabiliza la membrana". Restaura la conducción por canales de calcio. Traducción práctica: sirve cuando hay QRS ancho, no en la onda T picuda aislada.
🔴 Bicarbonato: no se recomienda de rutina.
🔴 La onda T picuda aparece en menos del 25% de los pacientes con K de 5.5-7.0. Un ECG normal NO descarta hiperkalemia.
🔴 Reevalúa el potasio a los 60 min y otra vez a las 2-4 horas. El rebote es frecuente
El tema ya está re-escrito y actualizado en Memodi y Accio. Completo en el canal (https://t.co/3O93s10lns).
News of Joy!!

One skill that will save you is strategic uselessness, being useless strategical. You see how nobody mentions musalia when we critisize the gorvement . This man has mastered the art .
I discovered this art one time my mother was tired of my fathers many shenanigans,she packed her clothes and left us .Being the eldest my father thought I would become an assistant mother ,he learned the hard way . The first night he asked me to cook rice . I put everything in the pot added water and kept adding water and wood untill the devil said , "that's enough my son" that night we had rice soup .
The next morning I put milk and instead of tea leaves I added some herbs my mother used for soup . Mzee saw the writings on the wall "menne menne ,this boy will kill you ". That night he came home with goat heads kila mtu yake . The next day I found my mother home when I came from school . That Sunday she was wearing new clothes ,sharp girl that one.
Brethren learn to be useless .
