Overview
The incidence of hyperkalemia is approximately 11000 per 100,000 individuals in hospitalized and 1000-2000 per 100,000 of outpatients.The exact prevalence of hyperkalemia is unknown. It changes between inpatient and outpatient cases. In one study in USA, the prevalence was 1.57. Hypekalemia occurs more in females compared to males. It is more common in older age group. African American have higher chances of developing hyperkalemia compared to non-African-Americans.
