Abstract

Objective: This article aims to analyze the electrocardiogram and clinical characteristics of patients with hyperkalemia induced sinus conduction. Method: This study included 20 patients with hyperkalemia induced sinus ventricular conduction from April 2023 to April 2024. The patients underwent electrocardiogram examination and their clinical characteristics were observed. Result: The electrocardiogram characteristics of 20 patients were disappearance of P-waves and prolongation of P-R interval. QRS complex is broad and malformed, with basic regular ventricular rate, S-T segment changes, and Q-T interval prolongation. After treatment, all patients' serum potassium ion concentrations and electrocardiograms returned to normal. Conclusion: Patients with hyperkalemia induced sinus conduction have obvious electrocardiogram and clinical characteristics, and the cardiac conduction status of patients is related to serum potassium ion concentration.
