Subject was incarcerated in a different county for a probation violation. Meanwhile, LA County issued a detainer hold for a new charge. The warrant hold has now been released (they have retained an attorney) and they are set to be released from custody on time. I called the courts and their next hearing is labeled as a 'Bench Warrant Hold' hearing.
Potassium is a mineral (electrolyte) in the body. Almost 98% of potassium is found inside the cells. Small changes in the level of potassium that is present outside the cells can have severe effects on the heart, nerves, and muscles.
Normally, 98% of the potassium in the body is found in the cells of various tissues, while only about 2% is circulating in the blood. When hyperkalemia occurs, it may come about because of an increase in total body potassium or as a result of increased release of potassium from the cells to the blood.
