Hyperkalemia was observed in only 5 patients (3.4% of the total study population), and 4 of these patients had a SCr level of 2 mg/dL or less. No interventions were required for any cases of hyperkalemia.Learners must attend/view/read the entire activity, read Implicit Bias impacts patient outcomes, and complete the associated evaluation to be awarded the contact hours or CERP.
