Difference between Acidosis and Hyperkalemia

Acidosis vs. Hyperkalemia

Acidosis is a process causing increased acidity in the blood and other body tissues (i.e., an increased hydrogen ion concentration). Hyperkalemia, also spelled hyperkalaemia, is an elevated level of potassium (K+) in the blood serum.

Similarities between Acidosis and Hyperkalemia

Acidosis and Hyperkalemia have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Creatinine, Diabetic ketoacidosis, Intensive care medicine, Kidney, Lactic acidosis.

Creatinine

Creatinine (or; from flesh) is a breakdown product of creatine phosphate in muscle, and is usually produced at a fairly constant rate by the body (depending on muscle mass).

Lactic acidosis
