Overview

An ECG may be helpful in diagnosing complications such as hyperkalemia in the clinical setting of hydronephrosis. Peaked T waves are the earliest sign of hyperkalemia on ECG.

Electrocardiogram

  • There are no ECG findings associated with hydronephrosis.
  • An ECG may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications associated with hydronephrosis such as hyperkalemia.[1]
  • Findings on an ECG suggestive of hyperkalemia include[2][3]
    • Tall, Peaked T Waves
    • QRS complex widening
    • Loss of P Waves
    • Sine Wave Pattern
