摘要：The time course of acute kidney injury and hypokalemia remains unelucidated. We investigated whether altered renal function impacts hypokalemia and clinical predictors for acute kidney injury in patients who used Yokukansan preparation. We performed a secondary analysis of retrospective observational cohort data from adult patients who started Yokukansan preparation. The study was conducted from June 2015 to May 2019 at Tokyo Women’s Medical University, Medical Center East. The effect of acute kidney injury (>1.5-fold increase from baseline serum creatinine level) or renal function recovery on hypokalemia (serum potassium level <3.0 mEq/L) was investigated. The clinical predictors for acute kidney injury were determined using a multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis. Out of 258 patients, 12 patients had both outcomes, and all but one patient experienced in the order of acute kidney injury and hypokalemia. Excluding one patient, hypokalemia occurred in 11/34 (32%) patients after acute kidney injury and 27/223 (12%) patients without acute kidney injury ( p = 0.005). Hypokalemia occurred in 9/25 (36%) of acute kidney injury with recovery, 2/9 (22%) of acute kidney injury without recovery, and 27/223 (12%) of no acute kidney injury ( p = 0.014). Patients with acute kidney injury showed a late onset of hypokalemia compared with those without acute kidney injury ( p = 0.001). In 258 patients, multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis showed that high systolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure increased the risk of acute kidney injury. Clinicians should remember that hypokalemia developed after acute kidney injury while Yokukansan preparation treatment.
