A low level can cause muscle weakness and heart problems. A high level can be found in kidney disease or in overuse of potassium supplements. Some “salt” substitutes contain potassium instead of sodium; an excessive use of these can cause dangerously high levels of potassium in the blood. Low or high levels in the blood are of critical ...

As potassium levels rise and repolarization slows, we can begin to see P waves flatten and heart rate slow down, as we see with DM. At potassium levels above 5.5, we may see peaked “tented” T waves, generally in several contiguous leads, and notable peaked compared to previous non-hyperkalemic EKGs. Prolonged PR waves may also be seen.

2016 University Hospital Laboratory Critical Values University Hospital has designated certain laboratory results to be considered "life threatening" unless therapy is instituted quickly. These values are telephoned directly to the licensed nurse in charge of the patient on the unit, physician requesting the determination, or another physician ...

Total brain water content remains constant despite serum Na levels as low as 100 mEq/L when these levels are achieved slowly (i.e., over several days). The absence of signs and symptoms of cerebral edema in a patient with severe hyponatremia is evidence for a chronic process to which the brain has successfully adapted.
Low potassium (hypokalemia) - Mayo Clinic
Hypokalemia (low potassium) – the body is more sensitive to small changes in potassium levels than any other serum electrolyte, very important for cardiac function. Causes – excessive vomiting, suctioning, vomiting, diarrhea, medications (diuretics, laxatives, insulin), alkalosis (causes exchange of H+ for K+), beta adrenergic stimulation ...

Aldosterone is a key hormone that helps regulate potassium. Individuals who have low aldosterone may also be at high risk for hyperkalemia. Low aldosterone levels may be noted in patients on aldosterone antagonists, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, non-steroidal anti inflammatory drugs, or patients who have type IV renal tubular acidosis.
