Finally understand the glucose-potassium relationship that confuses so many nursing students! This fluid and electrolyte concept can show up a lot in nursing school and on the NCLEX®.

🧠 MEMORY TRICK:
Glucose and potassium are BFFs! When glucose can't get into cells and hangs out in the blood, potassium wants to follow its best friend outside the cells too. Hyperglycemia = Hyperkalemia!

💡 KEY CRITICAL THINKING POINT:
Think about WHERE things are located: In type 1 diabetes, glucose gets stuck outside the cells (hyperglycemia). Since glucose and potassium are best friends, potassium also shifts outside the cells, causing high blood potassium levels (hyperkalemia).
