Patients with advanced non-dialysis-dependent CKD (NDD-CKD) have a reduced ability for maintaining plasma potassium (K) in normal range. Deviation from normal plasma K ranges is associated with increased mortality; however, the average trajectory of plasma K over time in patients with advanced NDD-CKD and the outcomes associated with plasma K trajectory are unknown.
