1
Once we've determined the etiology of our patients hyperkalemia, it's going to be important to make sure that we can treat them urgently and expeditiously.
2
So there's a couple of different things we want to keep in mind.
3
Number one.
4
We want to potentially antagonize the membrane effects of potassium with calcium if we're worried about cardiac dysrhythmias.
5
Number two, we can drive the extracellular potassium into cells.
6
And number three, we want to remove that excess potassium from the body.
7
So let's talk a little bit more about antagonizing membrane effects of potassium with calcium.
8
This is really only going to be reserved for patients who have ECG changes or an acute rise in serum potassium.
9
And what I want to tell you is that this does absolutely nothing for removing potassium.
10
This is only to protect cardiac myocytes.
11
We can use calcium chloride or calcium gluconate, and the mechanism and when we think about in terms of what happens hyperkalemia induces the depolarization of the resting membrane potential, that leads to inactivation of the sodium channels in a decreased membrane excitability.
12
So calcium antagonizes this membrane affect.
13
The mechanism is not well understood.
14
But again, what I want to underscore here is that this is to protect cardiac myocytes.
15
It does nothing in efforts to remove excess potassium from the body.
16
So the next thing we want to think about in terms of the treatment of hyperkalemia, and what we have in our armamentarium is driving the extracellular potassium into cells.
17
So we can do this by using insulin.
18
So remember what insulin does it's going to cause uptake of potassium into the cell by stimulating the activity of the sodium-potassium ATPase.
19
Now if we're going to give this as a therapy for hyperkalemia, it's going to be important to give it with glucose if our patients are normal glycemic.
20
We can also use beta-2 agonists like Albuterol and terbutaline.
21
This also stimulates the sodium-potassium ATPase, but it does so through a different mechanism than insulin.
22
It actually works through cyclic-AMP.
23
Therefore when you use beta agonists along with insulin, it provides a synergistic effect, and it can actually lower potassium by about 1.2 to 1.5 milli equivalents when used together.
24
So finally, we're left with our last category, which is removing excess potassium from the body.
25
There's a couple of different ways that we can do this.
26
Number one is diuretics.
27
Remember Loop Diuretics and thiazide diuretics.
28
We said by that mechanism of an increase in distal delivery of sodium mediates potassium e-flux into that tubular fluid.
29
We can use these therapies in patients who are relatively stable and long-term out patients who have chronic kidney disease.
30
Loop Diuretics can also be effective in the short term when combined with saline to maintain that distal delivery of sodium and distal tubular flow, but we rarely do this.
31
Another mechanism for potassium removal include using cation exchange resins.
32
This includes sodium polystyrene sulfonate otherwise known as kayexalate.
33
This is an exchange resin that will take a potassium in the gut and release sodium.
34
Now most preparations that are used are prepared using sorbitol.
35
That's an osmotic laxative which we'll also add to the mechanism of potassium excretion.
36
But what you need to keep in mind is that that's orbital component can actually lead to intestinal necrosis.
37
So we have to be very careful about using this medication certainly in our surgical patients who are at highest risk.
38
There are other cation exchange resins available too.
39
Paitromir, also known as Veltessa.
40
This takes up potassium and exchange for calcium in the colon.
41
And likely, in the long term this will replace sodium polystyrene sulfonate.
42
Another one that's new to the market is zirconium cyclosilicate.
43
And this is something that will exchange both sodium and protons for potassium during the intestinal transit.
44
Again, this will likely replace sodium polystyrene sulfonate in the long term.
45
Finally when we're thinking about potassium removal, probably the most effective way of moving potassium urgently is through dialysis.
46
And this is warranted when the prior mechanisms or measures are insufficient to correct the hyperkalemia.
47
Or if for example, somebody is expected to have a massive increase in potassium released either because of rhabdomyolysis or tissue breakdown.
48
Hemodialysis is going to be the preferred modality because it can remove up to about 25 to 50 Milli equivalents of potassium per hour.
49
And it's certainly the treatment of choice in our patients who have end-stage renal disease.
50
We also want to think about treating reversible causes.
51
So if a patient is on a drug, that's causing hyperkalemia.
52
We want to discontinue that drug.
53
And finally in our patients who are volume depleted, we want a volume expand them so that we can increase that distal delivery of sodium.

關於本課
在本課中,學習者將練習醫學相關的英語表達,尤其是針對高鉀血症(hyperkalemia)的治療方法。通過觀看影片並學習講解,您將能夠掌握如何描述治療過程中的重要步驟和專業術語。這對於希望提升醫學英語口語的學習者,尤其是準備雅思口語練習的學員,將大有裨益。
關鍵詞彙與短語
- 高鉀血症 (Hyperkalemia)
- 心律失常 (Cardiac dysrhythmias)
- 鈣 (Calcium)
- 胰島素 (Insulin)
- 利尿劑 (Diuretics)
- 鈉-鉀 ATP酶 (Sodium-potassium ATPase)
- 腎透析 (Dialysis)
- 陰離子交換樹脂 (Cation exchange resins)
練習技巧
在影片中,講解的速度適中,但專業術語及表達方式可能對初學者有一定挑戰。建議您在觀看過程中,進行以下兩項練習:
- 首先,隨影片進行影子練習。重複講解者的每一句話,嘗試捕捉他們的語音語調。特別注意專業術語的發音,以強化記憶。
- 其次,停下影片並對此影片內容進行簡短複述。嘗試用您的話總結治療高鉀血症的步驟,使用上述關鍵詞彙。這樣可以有效提升您的英語口語練習能力。
通過這種方法,您將能夠更好地理解醫學英語的使用場景,併為將來的專業交流做好準備。同時,可以在看YouTube學英語的過程中,不斷提高您的表達能力。
什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
