INSULIN AND POTASSIUM RELATIONSHIP
Have you ever wondered why you need to watch the potassium level when you give insulin?
Or how glucose affects the potassium level?
In this video, I'm going to walk through the key things you need to know about insulin, potassium and glucose for your fluids and electrolytes exam in nursing school.
Here's what we'll talk about:
1. Potassium likes to hang out inside of the cell in the intracellular fluid (ICF)
2. When the blood glucose level is elevated, potassium moves outside of the cell into the extracellular fluid (ECF), causing the potassium level to increase.
3. Insulin forces potassium back into the cell, causing the potassium level to decrease.
CRITICAL THINKING POINT:
Serious complications can occur if the potassium level is too high or too low. So any time you're giving insulin or treating a patient with elevated glucose levels, you must watch their potassium level carefully.
Come back to this video any time you need a quick refresher on insulin and potassium shifts in the body.

Have you ever come across - Wallyamday Improvement Trick - (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some decent things about it and my colleague got great results with it.

Thanks for this explanation! I also find it helpful to know WHY this happens: when there is lots of glucose around (signaling a state of abundance) insulin is released. Insulin activates the Na+/K+ ATPase to make energy (ATP). The Na+/K+ ATPse pumps sodium out of the cells and potassium into the cells (I use the mnemonic "PUMP-K-IN" to remind myself in which direction the K goes when the pump is active). Because the K+ is pumped inside the cells, insulin can result in hypokalemia. And for this same reason, insulin can be used to treat dangerous hyperkalemia (although only transiently), in the latter case, we just have to remember to give glucose along with the insulin or the patient will become hypoglycemic! Hope this helps.

Exactly, since potassium lowers blood pressure better than sodium restriction, it points to the need for diabetics to eat more potassium rich veggies (more than non-diabetics) to counteract the imbalance of potassium leaving the ICF to hang with the higher levels glucose in the blood (raising insulin levels) that their high carb diet is creating.

Wow, thanks for that info, and easy to understand. I have to make sure I get enough potassium all day because I am diabetic, and I take chlorothoridone for blood pressure and edema...it causes my potassium to drop. Now that I know about potassium levels decreasing after an insulin shot, I will make sure I have enough potassium to compensate for that effect. I also drink Body Armor Lite... it has 2 g of natural sugars, 530 mg of potassium, B vitamins, vitamin C, magnesium and other nutrients. I drink 3 to 4 a day. They are really good ice cold!! Thanks again for the info!!

@@NursingSOS I'm not really using this for "medical advice", but it has helped me understand that my potassium can be affected when I give myself my insulin shot. I do communicate with my doctor, but I personally don't believe he knows enough about diabetes, and that is why I do my own research on line.... most nurses and doctors in the hospitals do not know about diabetes other than if someone's blood glucose is a certain amount, they go by a chart that tells them how much insulin to give. I can tell you that because I was in the hospital with COVID in December for 12 days.... because of them, my blood sugar readings were very high, and in come cases, got too low... like a 57!! There were quite a few times when I did not get my meal like I was supposed to, had already received my shot, and had to continuously remind them that I had not received my meal.... as much as 3-4 hours LATE! Then I would get a "boxed meal" which was wheat bread, 2 very thin slices of highly processed turkey, high in sodium, which I wasn't supposed to have, a bag of baked chips, and a fruit cup which was soaking in high fructose corn syrup, and spiked my blood sugar higher... I had to eat something!! I review a number of sites that have nurses and doctors who teach about diabetes..... because I need to know and be aware... I have learned more from them that I have ever learned from any doctor I deal with. I believe it is important to stay educated about diabetes, because there are so many in the medical profession who do get it wrong... so I hope you don't mind me learning from you who specialize in diabetes management. If you would rather I don't, let me know, and I will be glad to unsubscribe and find another source to learn from... I'm not saying that to be nasty, just respectful if you would rather I don't watch your channel, okay?

@NursingSOS

Great question, Neha Yadav! Yes, with Addison's Disease you could see low blood glucose and high potassium levels. There isn't enough cortisol to increase blood glucose levels, and hyperkalemia because of too little aldosterone being released, so the kidneys hold onto potassium. I hope that helped clarify it for you! Thank you for being here, your support means the world to us. 😊

So, if you have a DKA and there are thiazide diuretics in place...risk for hypokalemia increases...

Is it not true that blood tests essentially only measure extracellular potassium? If so, then levels going down should be a good thing as that indicates potassium is back in the cell where it's needed?

Great video! So from my understanding, it would be correct to say that hyperinsulinism would cause hypokalemia whilst hyperglycemia would cause hyperkalemia right?
@NursingSOS
@NursingSOS Жыл бұрын
Demonic Angelboy_04 so hyperglycemia wouldn't necessarily cause hyperkalemia since it depends more on the insulin and potassium relationship, and increased insulin levels can decrease potassium levels. I hope that helps clarify it for you!

Potassium has huge effects on the heart. Having too much or too little can cause fatal arrhythmias. With hypo you may see a flattening or T wave inversion. U waves are seen in more severe cases and even ST depression. In the most severe cases hypokalemia can lead to vtach. Potassium is the most important electrolyte regarding your heart it's the main conductor.

but why does potassium follow glucose? like for what scientific purpose
@NursingSOS
@NursingSOS 3 жыл бұрын
Uchechi Ohanu, hyperglycemia causes hypertonicity and this pulls the potassium out of the cells. So think of it as a balancing act, with more glucose it will pull the potassium out of the cells, so if glucose isn't that high, not as much potassium will be pulled out. I hope that helps to clarify it for you. Thanks, friend! Have a fantastic day! :)

My Mom had a reaction to Mircera and I now think it might have to do with insulin/potassium...she has been titrating prednisone too. She is on home hemodialysis and is a type 2 diabetic that didn't need insulin before the prednisone. Mom has had memory/concentration issues that sometimes get better after a high potassium meal. Do you know how to figure this out?

I am no nurse or medical student, but if someone has hypoglycemia, the first port of call would be to raise their blood sugar levels and to make sure it has been taken up by the cells before adding potassium. In healthy people the human body needs; 4700mg of Potassium 1000-1175mg Sodium 4000mg glucose (for a person weighing 70kg) We must also remember natural food sources and hospital synthetic chemicals can be processed in the body different, and a sick body is also different from a healthy one.

)Not sure if you are monitoring this but I will give it a shot. During blood work, fasting glucose was 250 because i did not take insulin that morning since I was fasting for the test. The result of the test showed 250 glucose and 5.5 for K (threshold is 5.3 at the lab). Should I take another test with low blood sugar by taking insuline and doing the test again? . I do these tests often myself without doc ordering it...like in labs by paying for it myself. I will visit my doctor in next 2 weeks.

Do you lose potassium in urine when your insulin is really low? I know you lose salt and other minerals when insulin is low but not sure about potassium.

Brandon, great question, you don't lose potassium in your urine, but your blood sugar would increase because of the lack of insulin.
