INITIAL SERUM POTASSIUM LEVEL IN RELATION TO EARLY COMPLICATIONS AND PROGNOSIS IN PATIENTS WITH ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
Abstract
Abstract During two years 450 patients with AMI have been treated in the CCU at Serafimerlasarettet. Serum potassium level was determined in 444 patients on admission. Hyperkalemia was a rare finding associated with a bad state on admission and a poor prognosis. Hypokalemia was recorded in 15% of the patients and was associated with previous diuretic treatment, supraventricular bradycardia as well as atrial flutter and fibrillation during the first 24 hours in the CCU. Ventricular ectopic beats and ventricular tachycardia were also seen more frequently in hypokalaemic than in other patients.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
