Cardiac sensitivity to hyperkalemia in adrenalectomized dogs

In dogs with bilateral adrenalectomy loaded with K by infusion of 2 mEq KCI/kg/hr there is a marked increase of cardiac sensitivity to hyperkalemia. Typical ECG changes begin at lower serum K levels (5-6 mEq/l) and the prelethal arrhythmias that signal the imminent onset of fatal when mean serum K i...
