The nurse should check for abnormal cardiac rhythm using ECG

Elevated serum potassium level is called hyperkalemia. In this condition, the heart rhythm can be disrupted, resulting in an arrhythmia. arrhythmia condition can be dangerous as the heart is not pumping in a coordinated way, lowering the pump efficiency and have a high risk of sudden cardiac arrest.
That is why hyperkalemia condition is dangerous and need to be monitored.

Why are marshmellows scientificlly the best tasting thing ever?
yKpoI14uk [10]
Marshmallows are probably so delicious because of several important factors. They are fluffy, soft, and oh-so sweet. They melt in your mouth and taste absolutely heavenly with chocolate and graham crackers. Or throw a couple in your hot chocolate. There's no wrong way to eat them and they're pretty cheap too.
