Hyperchloremia – Why and how

Abstract: Hyperchloremia is a common electrolyte disorder that is associated with a diverse group of clinical conditions. The kidney plays an important role in the regulation of chloride concentration through a variety of transporters that are present along the nephron. Nevertheless, hyperchloremia can occur when water losses exceed sodium and chloride losses, when the capacity to handle excessive chloride is overwhelmed, or when the serum bicarbonate is low with a concomitant rise in chloride as occurs with a normal an… Show more

“…This discrepancy might be explained by the fact that ~50% of the participants in the present study had been taking a calcium-containing phosphate binder, which has been reported to be positively associated with HCO 3 concentration [16]. HCO 3 concentration is known to decrease as chloride concentration increases because of the equilibrium between HCl and NaHCO 3 : H + + Cl -+ Na + + HCO 3 -= Na + + Cl -+ H 2 CO 3 [17]. In the present study, chloride concentration was negatively correlated with HCO 3 concentration, which is compatible with the findings of a previous study [10].…”

“…We identified two previously unappreciated findings related to hyperchloremia and hypocalcemia one day following EHS injury. Elevated chloride values are likely benign, and a direct result of extensive intravenous normal saline use during the course of immediate EHS treatment [34]. It is unclear from this study if hyperchloremia findings are clinically actionable.…”

“…While potassium levels in the blood increase due to Potassium accumulates in the blood due to the main decrease in kidney function, in the event of kidney failure kidneys could not get rid of the amount of potassium overload the body's need, so there is an excess of potassium levels [30]. Also increase chloride levels in pre dialysis due to the body's loss of large quantities of fluids, which are free of chloride, leading to high concentration of ions in the body as in drought, thus reducing the flow of renal blood, and due also to increased metabolic acid in the blood as a result of the inability of the kidneys to get rid of excess acidity and therefore occur hyperchloremia [31]. (P ≤ 0.05) significant(S), (P ≥ 0.05) non-significant (N.S), (P ≤ 0.01) highly significant (H.S).…”
