Margaret Parker, MD, MCCM, speaks with Nnenna O. Chime, MD, MPH, about the article, “A Survey Demonstrating Lack of Consensus on the Sequence of Medications for Treatment of Hyperkalemia among Pediatric Critical Care Providers,” published in the June 2015 issue of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine. Dr. Chime is a second-year resident in the Department of Pediatrics at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Children’s Hospital at Montefiore in New York. In this article, Dr. Chime and coauthors discuss the results of a scenario-based survey and the extent to which opinions diverge among pediatricians on the treatment of hyperkalemia.
