摘要: Hyperkalemia is a commonly encountered electrolyte abnormality that can significantly alter normal cardiac conduction. Potentially lethal dysrhythmias associated with hyperkalemia include complete heart block and Mobitz Type II second-degree AV block. We report unique case of 1 atrioventricular (AV) block, known as Wenckebach, due to hyperkalemia. The patient’s symptoms electrocardiogram (ECG) evidence Wenckebach resolved lowering serum potassium levels, subsequent ECG showing first-degree This paper highlights an infrequently reported dysrhythmia emergency physicians should be familiar with.
