What caused that massive potassium shift from 9/21-9/22? That’s a lot to just drop in a day.

Depends on which type of test they run. We can get results back in 2 minutes if we really need to. Were you by chance on any diuretics?

That’s just amazing to me that it dropped that fast. Very interesting experience. I assume you coded between those two tests, or was all that blood work after you coded?

Coding on the 23rd would make more sense. For some reason my tired brain did not give that as an option. 1.8 is certainly code-worthy. Thanks for answering the questions, and I’d be interested in any more info if you get it! I’m an ER nurse, so I’ll talk medical anytime. :-)
