Abstract

Objective: To investigate the prevalence of electrolyte disturbances in patients with cirrhosis at Tra Vinh General Hospital in 2025. Methods: A total of 196 medical records of cirrhotic patients who attended and were treated at Tra Vinh General Hospital. This was a descriptive cross-sectional study using retrospective data collected from December 2023 to February 2025. Results: Patients aged 41–60 years and those aged ≥61 years accounted for the largest proportion (45.92%), with a mean age of 58.95 ± 13.59 years. Males represented 61.73% of the cohort, and the majority were of Kinh ethnicity (71.94%). Hyponatremia results were found in 30.61% of patients, hypernatremia was 2.04%. The prevalence of hypokalemia was 28.57%, and hyperkalemia 3.57%. Hypochloremia was found in 11.22% and hyperchloremia in 17.35%. Hypocalcemia accounted for 58.67% and hypercalcemia accounted for 7.14%. Conclusion: The highest rate of electrolyte disorders recorded was calcium accounting for 65.81% (including elevation and hypocalcium), followed by the rate of sodium electrolyte disorders of 32.65% (including increased and hypo-sodium) and potassium electrolyte disorders of 32.14% (including increased and hypo-potassium), the lowest was the rate of chlorine electrolyte disorders of 28.57% (including increased and hypochlorine). In electrolyte disorders, hypocalcemia is very common (58.67%).
