Figure 3

(a) The number and the percentage of patients with hyperkalemia at each CKD staging. (b) The number of patients in each CKD staging according to varying levels of high serum potassium. eGFR < 15 ml/min/1.73 m2, eGFR = 15–29.9 ml/min/1.73 m2, eGFR = 30–44.9 ml/min/1.73 m2, eGFR = 45–59.9 ml/min/1.73 m2, eGFR = 60–89.9 ml/min/1.73 m2, and eGFR = 90–120 ml/min/1.73 m2. eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; K, serum potassium.
