Muscles contain large pools of K+ and Na+-K+pumps and could either flood plasma with K+ or induce a drop in plasma K+ due to rapid intracellular K+ accumulation. Since both events could interfere with cardiac contractile performance, tight regulation of Na+-K+ pump activity and concentration is essential.
