Abstract:
:In hemodialysis patients with hyperkalemia, i.v. sodium bicarbonate has recently been found to be ineffective in lowering plasma potassium within one hour. In the present study the effect of a prolonged bicarbonate infusion on plasma potassium was investigated. Twelve patients with terminal renal failure who were on hemodialysis were infused i.v. with 8.4% sodium bicarbonate (4 mmol/min) for one hour and with 1.4% (0.5 mmol/min) for five hours (total amount 390 mmol). Plasma bicarbonate rose from 17.5 at baseline to 28.4 and 29.6 mmol/liter, and blood pH from 7.32 to 7.46 and 7.48 at one and six hours, respectively. Plasma potassium did not change significantly after one and two hours (6.04 at baseline, 5.91 and 5.77 mmol/liter, respectively). Only at four and six hours did a moderate decline to 5.44 (P less than 0.05) and to 5.30 (P less than 0.01) occur, of which approximately half was calculated to be due to ECF volume expansion. However, no change or a very moderate decrease was observed in three patients even after six hours (+0.19, -0.32, -0.33 mmol/liter). Five patients with higher baseline plasma potassium (6.15 to 8.15 mmol/liter) behaved like seven with lower levels (5.25 to 5.87 mmol/liter). Tented T-waves in the ECG of seven patients disappeared after one hour only in one patient. Plasma aldosterone, norepinephrine and epinephrine were normal to elevated before and tended to fall during i.v. bicarbonate. Plasma dopamine and insulin were in the normal range.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
