根因分析
采血或处理过程中的溶血释放细胞内钾,导致假性高钾血症;实际钾可能正常;忽略溶血指数会导致不必要的治疗(如胰岛素、葡萄糖酸钙),带来医源性风险。
English
Hemolysis during blood draw or processing releases intracellular potassium, causing pseudohyperkalemia; true potassium may be normal; ignoring hemolysis index leads to unnecessary treatment (e.g., insulin, calcium gluconate) with iatrogenic risks.

-
Check hemolysis index on lab report; if ≥ 2+, request recollection with proper technique (no fist clenching, use larger vein); run `python -c "print('Hemolysis index: check >2+; recollect if elevated')"` -
Order venous blood gas for rapid whole blood potassium, less affected by hemolysis
-
If hemolysis index unavailable, repeat draw from opposite arm with minimal tourniquet time and avoid small needles
无效尝试
常见但无效的做法:
-
75% 失败
If hemolysis is due to difficult draw or improper technique, repeat may show same artifact; need to check hemolysis index first
-
90% 失败
Unnecessary treatment causes hypoglycemia; if potassium is actually normal, patient at risk of hypokalemia
-
80% 失败
True hyperkalemia can be asymptomatic; correlation with hemolysis index is required, not clinical judgment alone
