Combined pseudohyperkalemia and pseudohypocalcemia have not been previously reported in the clinical setting. We report 2 cases in which specimen contamination during routine phlebotomy with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) caused alteration in serum levels of potassium and calcium. This alteration could be misleading when making clinical decisions and could produce adverse patient outcomes.
联合性假性高钾血症和假性低钙血症在临床环境中此前尚未有过报道。我们报告了2例病例，其中在常规静脉采血过程中使用乙二胺四乙酸（EDTA）导致标本污染，进而引起血清钾和钙水平的改变。这种改变在做出临床决策时可能会产生误导，并可能给患者带来不良后果。
