AbstractTwo newborn infants with ventricular arrhythmias secondary to hyperkalaemia are presented. One child also showed a decreased serum calcium concentration. There is scanty literature concerning the often life threatening cardiac arrhythmias due to hyperkalaemia in the newborn infants. Treatment of the cardiac arrhythmias require intravenous calcium gluconat and sodium bicarbonate infusion beside lowering the serum potassium level in the usual way.
