The blood was hemolyzed. It destroys the blood cells, thus releasing intracellular potassium out into the bloodstream. This causes the elevated result.

I've seen this over 100 times in the ER

Every time, the patient is pissed off

They had a 70 y/o come in from his camp, down Bedico Creek at 10pm with his dog and no boat lights. Sheriff was waiting at the dock in him. He was PISSED!
