Background The interaction between chronic medications on admission and the association
between serum potassium level and outcome in patients with acute heart failure (AHF) are …

Aim We investigated the prognostic significance of serum potassium abnormalities at
discharge in patients hospitalized for acute heart failure (AHF). Methods and results In a …

Background Limited, contradictory data exist regarding the effect of hyperkalemia on both
short-and long-term all-cause mortality among hospitalized patients with heart failure (HF) …

Background Available information about prognostic implications of potassium levels
alteration in the setting of acute heart failure (AHF) is scarce. Objectives We aim to describe …

Objective Both hyperkalemia (HK) and Acute Heart Failure (AHF) are associated with
increased short-term mortality, and the management of either may exacerbate the other. As …

Serum potassium is routinely measured at admission for acute heart failure (AHF), but
information on association with clinical variables and prognosis is limited. Potassium …

Background Abnormal serum potassium levels (K+) in patients with heart failure (HF) relate
to worse prognosis. We evaluated whether admission K+ levels predict 1-year outcomes in …

Aims Diuretic treatment is often needed in acute heart failure following myocardial infarction
(MI) and carries a risk of abnormal potassium levels. We examined the relation between …

Both hyperkalemia and hypokalemia may be related to heart failure (HF) therapy and are
associated with adverse outcomes. Abnormalities in serum potassium levels in hospitalized …

Background Data on the true burden of hyperkalemia in patients with heart failure (HF) in a
real‐world setting are limited. Methods and Results Incidence rates of hyperkalemia (first …
