Clinical outcomes before and after hyperkalemia (HK). Dark gray bars show outcomes 6 months before and after the HK date in patients with heart failure with HK. Corresponding after vs before risk ratios are shown, adjusted for competing risk of death after HK. Light gray bars show outcomes in age‐, sex‐, and heart failure duration–matched patients with heart failure without HK as a point of comparison. ACEi indicates angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitor; ARB, angiotensin receptor II blocker; CI, confidence interval; ICU, intensive care unit.
