One of the most common electrolyte disturbances seen in clinical practice is hypokalemia. hypokalemia is more prevalent than hyperkalemia; however, most cases are mild. although there is a slight variation, an acceptable lower limit for normal serum potassium is 3.5 mmol/l. severity is categorized as mild when the serum potassium level is 3 to 3.4 mmol/l, moderate when the serum potassium.
Potassium disorders are common. hypokalemia (serum potassium level less than 3.6 meq per l [3.6 mmol per l]) occurs in up to 21% of hospitalized patients and 2% to 3% of outpatients. 1 – 3. The most common causes of hypokalemia defined as a level below 3.5 meq/l (3.5 mmol/l) include vomiting, diarrhea, hypomagnesemia, diuretics such as furosemide, hyperaldosteronism, and less commonly inadequate intake. it has been estimated that a 1-meq/l fall in serum potassium from 4 to 3 meq/l represents a total body deficit of. If the potassium level is between 3.3 and 5.2 meq per l (3.3 and 5.2 mmol per l) and urine output is normal, replacement can start at 20 to 30 meq potassium per hour..
