Overview

In hospitalized patients the incidence rate of hypoaldosteronism is 3000 per 100,000 individuals. The prevalence rate of hypoaldosteronism in United states is estimated to be 200,000 cases. Hypoaldosteronism is most commonly seen in middle-aged and older individuals. Both men and women are affected equally. Hypoaldosteronism is more prevalent in African-American, Native Americans, and Hispanics.

Epidemiology and Demographics

Incidence

  • The incidence of hypoaldosteronism in hospitalized patient is approximately 3000 per 100,000 individuals.[1]

Prevalence

  • The prevalence of hypoaldosteronism is approximately 667 per 100,000 individuals.
  • The prevalence of hypoaldosteronism is estimated to be 200,000 cases in the United States.

Age

  • Hypoaldosteronism is most commonly seen in middle-aged and older individuals.
  • Elderly patients on multiple drug therapy (polypharmacy) have an increased incidence of drug induced hypoaldosteronism.
  • In younger patients, hypoaldosteronism is seen in patients with underlying diabetes mellitus type I or sickle cell disease.

Race

  • Hypoaldosteronism is more prevalent in African-American, Native Americans, and Hispanics.

Gender

  • Hypoaldosteronism affects both men and women equally.
