Key Points

ECG abnormalities were present in 69.5% of patients with renal failure and hyperkalemia, indicating significant cardiac risks.
Patients with T wave inversion had significantly lower potassium levels (6.42 mEq/L) compared to those without, suggesting vital monitoring needs.
Lower calcium/potassium ratios (1.39) correlated with higher instances of ECG abnormalities, emphasizing electrolyte importance.
The study found that patients who died within 30 days had lower calcium/potassium ratios and higher potassium levels, raising clinical concern.
