Myth busted: giving potassium supplements on lower limit normal levels may not be necessary for CABG patients to prevent AFACS. The joy of RCTs. @magboo_rena @jomurfin #TightK
‘No need for common practice of routinely supplementing potassium after heart surgery’
Read the key takeaways from the #TIGHTK trial at #ESCCongress here:

💪🏼 Proud to be part of this important clinical trial that highlighted practice changing clinical findings: the widespread use of maintaining normal high levels of potassium should be reconsidered!

1/ BREAKING: The Tight K trial- potassium and AF prophylaxis after CABG.
MAIN FINDINGS - supplementation of potassium when [K+] fell below 3.6mEq/L was non-inferior to current widespread practice of supplementing potassium to maintain a [K+] of 4.5mEq/L. #ESCCongress #TIGHTK

Legitimately practice changing: the #TIGHTK multicenter open label RCT found that in post-op cardiac surgery patients, repleting potassium to 3.6 mEq/L was non-inferior 4.5 mEq/L but saved substantial RN ⏱️ time & 💰 money ($111 per pt).

4/ The TIGHT-K Trial has shown that the widespread practice of maintaining a high normal serum potassium can be abandoned after CABG surgery #ESCCongress #TIGHTK @TrudieLobban @KnowYourPulse
3/ The costs of supplementing potassium to maintain a high normal level were x4 higher than only supplementing potassium when it fell below the normal range. #ESCCongress #TIGHTK
2/ There was also no difference in the number of patients with non-AF dysrhythmias, including VF/VT #ESCCongress #TIGHTK

Looking forward to presenting Tight K today at #ESCCongress. Join us in Hotline 4, starting at 1615 #TIGHTK
We are looking forward to presenting the results of Tight K tomorrow at #ESCCongress, Hot Line 4 at 1659. #TIGHTK @escardio
beim #ESCCongress2024 die #TightK Studie vorgestellt, die das nach Jahrzehnten mal randomisiert hat. W��rde mich sehr wundern, wenn was rauskommt. Faustregel: Dinge, die prima vista irgendwie unterkomplex wirken, sind es oft auch. (2/2)

Well done to the GJ Cardiac Research Team who have recruited their first 2 patients to the @TightKstudy @JubileeHospital @NRS_CVResearch #TightK
#TightK has reached the 10 percent mark! Thank you to all our open sites @NHSBartsHealth @WythenshaweHosp @KCH_Research @acetresearch @Hullhospitals @LHCHFT @ImperialNHS @LTHTResearch @LeedsHospitals @BlackpoolHosp @StGeorgesTrust

Barts @NHSBartsHealth and Wythenshawe @WythenshaweHosp research teams are continuing to raise the standards, and have now recruited 23 participants between them @julessanders2 @drncampbell
#TightK recruitment is off to a great start.. 16 patients have now been recruited
Congratulations to top recruiting sites @NHSBartsHealth and @WythenshaweHosp
#TIGHTK trial recruitment has started!
Tight #K is a new study investigating how #potassium should be controlled following Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (#CABG) - current is to control K at a high normal level with no evidence to suggest if this is the best way 💔#whywedoresearch
❣️CONGRATULATIONS to the @NHSBartsHealth research team for recruiting their first patients into the #TIGHTK Trial!
