Hyperkalemia Prevention and Management in Chronic Kidney Disease

Hyperkalemia is a significant risk of medications  that slow progression of chronic kidney disease. Oftentimes these medications or their optimal doses are avoided as a means to mitigate the risk of hyperkalemia, withholding the full potential benefit for our patients. Complicating this problem is the reality that evidence-based guidelines for managing hyperkalemia in patients with chronic kidney disease are sparse.

Part 5: STRATEGIES to improve pharmacoequity in Black persons with CKD

In Part 5, we will present strategies to overcome the barriers presented in Part 1-4. These strategies include: multidisciplinary team-based care that can provide comprehensive medication management, or CMM; overcoming barriers to access medications; using a shared decision making, patient-centered model of care; and patient / caregiver tools to improve medication use.

AKHOMM is fiscally sponsored by the Alliance for Integrated Medication Management (AIMM), a non-profit organization.
