The Benefits and Harms of Hyperkalemia Management – BC PWR (December 2020)
The Benefits and Harms of Hyperkalemia Management – BC PWR (December 2020) Side Effects 0 Views • 21 days ago

Province Wide Rounds is a collaboration between the UBC Division of Nephrology and BC Renal.

Dr. Navdeep Tangri, a physician and associate professor with the Department of Nephrology at the University of Manitoba, discusses the current practices, as well as benefits and harms, of managing hyperkalemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).

0:03:14 – Overview of Hyperkalemia
Dr. Tangri starts by defining hyperkalemia and how it disproportionately occurs in patients with kidney disease. He goes on to describe the how heart failure and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors are associated with the condition..
0:09:45 – Study on Hyperkalemia and RAAS Inhibitors
Dr. Tangri discusses his own research, looking at the impact of discontinuing the use of RAAS inhibitors after hyperkalemia. His team conducted a retrospective cohort study using administrative data from Manitoba. Over a three-year period following hyperkalemia events, there was a high rate of mortality among patients (largely cardiovascular-related deaths); discontinuation of RAAS inhibitors was associated with significantly higher chance of death. He also presents data on suboptimal and maximum doses. There is some benefit for dose reduction over discontinuation.
0:24:49 – Summary of Findings
He summarizes the key findings from the study and discusses limitations.
0:25:09 – Existing Treatment Options for Hyperkalemia
Dr. Tangri goes on to discuss current practices of treating hyperkalemia, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of sodium polystyrene sulfonate (SPS) and loop diuretics.
0:30:06 – New Treatment Options for Hyperkalemia
He talks about new potassium binders, including SZC and Patiromer. Patiromer is a novel, non-absorbed potassium binder that has been found to safely and effectively lower potassium levels.

Hyperkalemia is the medical term that describes a potassium level in your blood that's higher than normal. Potassium is a chemical that is critical to the function of nerve and muscle cells, including those in your heart.

Your blood potassium level is normally 3.6 to 5.2 millimoles per liter (mmol/L). Having a blood potassium level higher than 6.0 mmol/L can be dangerous and usually requires immediate treatment.
Causes
Often a report of high blood potassium isn't true hyperkalemia. Instead, it may be caused by the rupture of blood cells in the blood sample during or shortly after the blood draw. The ruptured cells leak their potassium into the sample. This falsely raises the amount of potassium in the blood sample, even though the potassium level in your body is actually normal. When this is suspected, a repeat blood sample is done.
Treatment for Hyperkalemia

Treatment may include:
Going on a low-potassium diet
Stopping or changing meds that are contributing to the hyperkalemia
Taking medicine to lower the potassium in your body. Water pills (diuretics) remove potassium via the urinary tract.
Treating your kidney disease, which may include dialysis, which filters potassium from your blood
Other treatments depend on the cause of hyperkalemia.
Some medications work as potassium binders:
Patiromer (Veltassa)
Sodium polystyrene sulfonate (Kayexalate)
Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (Lokelma)
You take them by mouth to prevent hyperkalemia. Neither should be used in emergencies. If you have a dangerously high potassium level, you will get emergency care including IV medications.

SUMMARY
1. Muscle weakness: Hyperkalemia is characterized by ascending muscle weakness that begins with the legs and progresses to the trunk and arms. This is one of the very important signs of high blood potassium levels. Simple activities such as walking will make you feel weak. Your muscles can also lose their ability to function properly, leading to fatigue. You may have dull, continuous pain in your muscles. It may feel as if you have completed a strenuous workout or a physical exercise when you have just started your day.

2. Numbness and tingling: Having too much potassium in your blood also affects nerve function. Potassium helps you fire signals in your brain. But this becomes harder when there is too much potassium in your blood. Gradually you may develop neurological symptoms such as numbness or a feeling of “pins and needles” striking your limbs.

3. Nausea and vomiting: Hyperkalemia can also have a detrimental effect on your digestive health. In some people, too much potassium has been linked to vomiting, nausea, and abdominal pain.

4. Abnormal heartbeat: A side effect of hyperkalemia is the risk of developing an abnormal heartbeat. This occurs when damage occurs to the muscles that control your heart. This can cause heart palpitations, chest pain, and lead to heart failure. Your heartbeat may feel like your heart has stopped beating. This feeling is not only felt in the chest. Some people feel a tingling sensation in the neck and throat, too. If you have a heart rhythm problem, you may feel a strong pressure on your chest, arms, and neck. Other symptoms such as diarrhea, heartburn, cold sweats, and dizziness may also occur. If you experience these symptoms, call 911 or seek immediate medical attention.

5. Shortness of breath: Breathing problem is another indication of high potassium levels. This occurs when high blood potassium begins to affect the muscles that control breathing. Your lungs do not get enough oxygen because of the increased heart rate. You may have difficulty holding your breath or feeling tightness in your chest. In extreme cases, it may feel as if you were being choked. Call your doctor and seek medical help as soon as possible in case you feel this.

Most people have a few symptoms. When symptoms appear, they are usually mild and vague. You may feel muscle weakness, numbness, tingling, nausea, or other unusual sensations. It usually grows slowly for several weeks or months and is usually mild. It can come back.

Sudden or severe hyperkalemia is a life-threatening condition. It requires immediate medical attention.

How Does Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate (Lokelma) Work? - First Response Medicine Side Effects 0 Views • 21 days ago

How Does Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate (Lokelma) Work? In this informative video, we will discuss Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate, commonly known as Lokelma, and its role in treating high potassium levels in the blood, a condition referred to as hyperkalemia. We will explain how Lokelma works by binding potassium ions in the gastrointestinal tract, facilitating their elimination through feces. This mechanism is essential for managing elevated potassium levels effectively and safely.

You’ll learn about Lokelma's unique properties, including its non-absorbed nature and its ability to selectively capture potassium ions without affecting other electrolytes. We will also highlight the significance of Lokelma's rapid action, which can be particularly beneficial in emergency situations. Understanding the application of Lokelma in both immediate treatment and long-term management of hyperkalemia is important for healthcare providers and first responders alike.

Join us as we break down the science behind this medication and its practical implications in the field of emergency medicine. Don't forget to subscribe to our channel for more helpful discussions on first responders medicine and related topics.

Benefits of Lokelma: A Breakthrough Solution for Managing High Potassium Levels
Benefits of Lokelma: A Breakthrough Solution for Managing High Potassium Levels Side Effects 1 Views • 21 days ago

High potassium levels, also known as hyperkalemia, occur when there is an excess of potassium in the blood. Potassium is an essential mineral that plays a crucial role in nerve and muscle cell function, but when levels become too high, it can lead to serious health complications. Common causes of high potassium levels include kidney disease, heart failure, certain medications, and even poor diet choices.
The importance of managing high potassium levels cannot be overstated. If left untreated, hyperkalemia can lead to life-threatening conditions such as cardiac arrhythmias, muscle weakness, and even paralysis. It is essential to take proactive steps to bring potassium levels back to a healthy range.
Introducing Lokelma:. What is it and how does it work?.
Lokelma is a groundbreaking medication specifically designed to address high potassium levels. Its unique mechanism of action allows it to bind with excess potassium in the gastrointestinal tract, preventing its absorption into the bloodstream. This effectively reduces the overall potassium levels in the body, bringing them back to a safe range.
Unlike some other treatment options, Lokelma is not absorbed into the bloodstream itself. Instead, it remains in the intestines, where it can continue to bind with excess potassium and facilitate its elimination from the body through the normal digestive process. This targeted approach helps to avoid potential side effects associated with other treatments while still effectively managing high potassium levels.
Benefits of Lokelma for managing high potassium levels.
One of the key benefits of Lokelma is its ability to provide rapid and sustained results. Clinical studies have shown that Lokelma can begin to lower potassium levels within just a few hours of administration, with maximum effects seen within one to two days. This means that patients can experience relief from the symptoms of hyperkalemia quickly and regain control of their health.
Another advantage of Lokelma is its ability to maintain potassium levels within the desired range over the long term. By binding with excess potassium in the intestinal tract, Lokelma helps to prevent a rebound effect known as rebound hyperkalemia. This phenomenon often occurs with other treatments, where potassium levels drop initially but then increase again shortly after treatment is discontinued. With Lokelma, patients can enjoy consistent and stable potassium levels, reducing the risk of complications associated with fluctuating levels.
Furthermore, Lokelma has been shown to be safe and well-tolerated in clinical trials. Common side effects, such as mild gastrointestinal discomfort, are generally temporary and resolve on their own. This makes Lokelma an attractive option for patients looking for a reliable and manageable solution for their high potassium levels.
Clinical studies and research on Lokelma.
Extensive research and clinical trials have been conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Lokelma in managing hyperkalemia. These studies have consistently demonstrated the efficacy of Lokelma in reducing potassium levels and maintaining them within the desired range. In one study, patients with chronic kidney disease who received Lokelma experienced a significant decrease in potassium levels compared to those who received a placebo.

3:30 Testing for hyperkalemia and hypokalemia 

Today we’re going to talk about high levels of potassium in your blood, which is called hyperkalemia. 

98% of all of the potassium in your body is actually inside of your cells, not outside of the cells or in your blood. When evaluating hyperkalemia, we’re really looking at just the 2%, so we’re not seeing the whole picture of what’s going on. 

Considering that the majority of the potassium is inside of the cell, measuring potassium levels based on the blood may not be a good way to determine if a person has too much or too little potassium. However, there is an intracellular potassium test that I believe is much more valuable. 

A few important things about hyperkalemia:  
• It’s very rare
• There are very few symptoms associated with hyperkalemia (severe cases may cause palpitations, tiredness, muscle pain, and muscle weakness)
• There is a condition called pseudohyperkalemia (which is basically a false impression that you have high levels of potassium in the blood)
• Excessive intake of potassium is not a primary cause of hyperkalemia 

A few causes of hyperkalemia: 
• Advanced kidney disease 
• Addison’s disease 
• NSAIDs 
• Certain high blood pressure medications
 
The typical treatment for hyperkalemia typically involves taking:
• Calcium 
• Insulin 
• Dextrose 
• Sodium bicarbonate 

On the other hand, A deficiency of potassium in the blood is called hypokalemia. Hypokalemia is the most common form of electrolyte imbalance when someone is hospitalized.

A few symptoms of hypokalemia:
• Leg cramps 
• Weakness
• Constipation
• Abnormal heart rhythm issues
