More often, tachycardia with ST segment abnormalities (elevation or depression) is due to an underlying illness (PE, sepsis, hemorrhage, dehydration, hypoxia, respiratory failure, etc.). Large volume fluid resuscitation was undertaken. The patient was suffering from severe dehydration, possibly with sepsis. The K returned at 6.9
