Hypokalemia is a common malignant like hyperpotassemia complication of maintenance hemodialysis (maintenance hemodialysis, MHD) patients. Hypokalemia increased risks of cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular events, hospitalization and death. In this article, we report a 56-year-old female MHD patient with repeat arrhythmia during hemodialysis sessions due to hypokalemia. After a month of attempt of fruit intake programme, the patient developed no symptoms or signs of arrhythmia, hypokalemia, hypoglycemia during hemodialysis sessions.
