Summary
This study tested whether a small, wearable ECG device can detect high potassium levels (hyperkalemia) in people on dialysis. Thirty-two adults with chronic kidney disease wore the sensor during dialysis sessions over six weeks. Researchers compared ECG readings with blood test results to see if the device could spot dangerous potassium changes without extra needle sticks. The goal is to make monitoring safer and easier for patients.
