Exercise-induced hyperkalemia and concentration of Na,K-pumps in skeletal muscle in mitral stenosis: effect of balloon mitral valvotomy.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS OF THE STUDY: The study aim was to examine the effects of balloon mitral valvotomy (BMV) on exercise-induced hyperkalemia, and on changes in the concentration of Na,K-pumps in skeletal muscle, as an exaggerated exercise-induced rise in potassium concentration ([K+]) may contribu...
