Résumé
Hyperkalemia is a frequent electrolyte alteration whose prevalence varies widely, depending on the adopted cutoff, the setting (inpatients versus outpatients), and the characteristics of the study population. Familial hyperkalemic hypertension (FHH) is a rare cause of hypertension, hyperkalemia, and hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis. In this retrospective observational study, we investigated the prevalence of hyperkalemia (serum K Overall, 374 (7.3%) patients had hyperkalemia. This was associated with drugs known to increase K The identification of hyperkalemia in patients with hypertensive has prognostic implications. A timely diagnosis of FHH is important for effective management of hypertension, electrolyte imbalance correction with tailored treatment, and genetic counseling.
