The release of potassium from platelets is a well-known cause of
pseudohyperkalemia in thrombocytosis. In predicting the magnitude of
pseudohyperkalemia associated with thrombocytosis, previous investigations
considered only the amount of potassium released from platelets during blood
clotting, although the increment in serum potassium during blood clotting depends
on the quantity of potassium released from platelets as well as the volume of
distribution of the released potassium, which is inversely proportionate to the
hematocrit. The present study proposes a new mathematical formula to predict the
magnitude of increase in serum potassium during blood clotting, and accuracy of
this formula has been tested in a patient with thrombocytosis.
