BRASH syndrome refers to a vicious spiral wherein hyperkalemia and AV nodal blockers synergize to cause progressive renal failure, bradycardia, shock, and hyperkalemia. The treatment is largely a combination of standard therapies for hyperkalemia and bradycardia. Recognizing this syndrome as a specific entity may help us more fully understand our patients' physiology, facilitating a more comprehensive approach to their management.

Hey Josh,
Love the site and this is another amazing post. Any idea on when this podcast will become available on iTunes??
Hi! I recently started listening to your podcast and I love it. However, it is sometimes very hard to hear and sounds maybe like you guys are talking way to close to the microphone and it makes it impossible to understand you on my Bluetooth in my car. I just wanted to let you guys know because I would love to be able to keep listening to you guys!
Recently I was going over a case study in my masters program and it included a hyperkalemia patient that was being resuscitated with amiodorone. Should amio be avoided altogether w renal failure patients with high potassium levels?
Hi Josh,
What’s the rationale for using fludrocortisone in the “nephron bomb”? Doesn’t it promote retention of salty water?
