Summary
Null hypothesis: There is no difference in the efficacy of IVPR and EPR during an episode of
hypokalemia.
Alternate Hypothesis: There is a mean difference of 15% in Serum Potassium levels between the
two groups.
Objective: To compare the efficacy EPR and IVPR for treatment of hypokalemia (measured as
change in serum potassium levels in milliequivalent/L after potassium replacement)
