“…Some patients die from irreversible central nervous disease, secondary to bleeding, brain edema or unexplained coma. This general problem shows only slight variation with geographical location and clinical setting (59)(60)(61)(62)(63)(64)(65)(66). A few patients die from hyperkalemia, digitalis intoxication, and technical dialysis mishaps.…”
