Association of Changes in Creatinine and Potassium Levels After Initiation of Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System Inhibitors With Emergency Department Visits, Hospitalizations, and Mortality in Individuals With Chronic Kidney Disease
Abstract
Importance
Renin angiotensin aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASIs) benefit individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Elevations in serum creatinine and potassium levels are common reasons for discontinuation of this therapy, but their incidence and risks are not well characterized in community practice.Objective
To evaluate associations of increased creatinine levels, hyperkalemia, and therapy continuation with the risk...Paper Details
