Overview

The exact prevalence of hyperkalemia is unknown. It changes between inpatient and outpatient cases. In one study in USA, the prevalence was 1.57.[1]

Epidemiology and Demographics

Incidence

  • 11000 per 100,000 hospitalized patients and 1000 to 2000 per 100,000 of outpatients suffer from hyperkalemia.[2]

Gender

  • Hypekalemia occurs more in females compared to males.[3]

Past medical history

  • Hyperkalemia occurs more in patients with a history of renal diseases and diabetes mellitus.[3]

Race =

  • African American have higher chances of developing hyperkalemia compared to non-African-Americans.[4]
