Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is an acute metabolic disorder that occurs in those with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) which presents with persistent hyperglycemia (鈮 250 mg/ dL) leading to a high anion gap metabolic acidosis with ketosis in the setting of ...
Most patients had type 1 diabetes whose ketoacidosis showed symptoms of vomiting, stomachache and it was most often caused by a discontinued application of insulin or an infection. In patients with type 2 diabetes an inadequate regulation of glycemia had been noticed before hospitalisation and ...
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is the most common acute hyperglycaemic emergency in people with diabetes mellitus. A diagnosis of DKA is confirmed when all of the three criteria are present —‘D’, either elevated blood glucose levels or a family history
Summary Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state (HHS) are the most serious acute metabolic emergencies in type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Metabolic derangements result from an absolute or relative insulin deficiency as a consequence of metabolic stress. As a result, counter...
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is an acute, major, life-threatening complication of diabetes. DKA mainly occurs in patients with type 1 diabetes, but it is not uncommon in some patients with type 2 diabetes (most likely latent autoimmune diabetes of adults [LADA] or Flatbush diabetes). ...
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is an acute, severe, and potentially life-threatening phenomenon that is caused by severe hyperglycemia, in which the blood glucose levels exceed 250 mg/dL. There is excess production of ketoacids due to a lack of insulin. Insulin deficiency can be absolute or relati...
Systemic stress, inflammation, and hydroelectrolytic and acid‒base abnormalities observed during diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) can cause changes in the heart and even induce cardiovascular damage. We aimed to evaluate the structure and function of the h
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is the most common hyperglycemic emergency in patients with diabetes mellitus. DKA most often occurs in patients with type 1 diabetes, but patients with type 2 diabetes are susceptible to DKA under stressful conditions, such as trauma, surgery, or infections. DKA is re...
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a form of a hyperglycemic emergency mainly characterized by the triad of hyperglycemia, ketosis, and anion gap metabolic acidosis. DKA may be the initial presentation in approximately 25-40 % of patients with type 1 diabetes. It may also occur in at least 34% ...
Diabetic ketoacidosisis a life-threatening complication of childhood diabetes (mainly associated with type 1 or insulin-dependent diabetes).1Thirty percent of children with new-onset type 1 diabetes present withdiabetic ketoacidosis, and an additional 6% to 8% develop diabetic ketoacidosis each year.2...
