Association between admission baseline blood potassium levels and all-cause mortality in patients with acute kidney injury combined with sepsis: A retrospective cohort study
The admission baseline blood K levels were significantly associated with ICU 30-day mortality in intensive care patients suffering from AKI in conjunction with sepsis. Therefore, immediate and careful correction of blood potassium imbalances may prove to be a crucial approach in improving outcomes for these patients.
