Abstract

Hyperkalemia is the most common complication of patients with chronic kidney disease(CKD), which is more common in hemodialysis(HD) patients.The reason of hyperkalemia in HD patients are related to excessive intake of K+ , insufficient clearance of K+ and K+ transferring from intracellular to extracellualr.Clinically, most of the patients don't have any obvious symptoms, a few of patients appear heart and neuromuscular symptoms.To prevent hyperkalemia, the patients should control the daily potassium intake strictly, and take adequate dialysis and drug therapy. Key words: Hemodiafiltration; Hyperkalemia
