A 64-year-old female with a background of type 2 diabetes became acutely unwell after being transferred from insulin to liraglutide, which is one of the new glucagon like peptide 1 analogues. On assessment in accident and emergency, she was diagnosed with diabetic ketoacidosis and pancre...
What type 1 diabetes complications cannot be measured? What kind of injections are given for diabetic retinopathy? What is quiescent proliferative diabetic retinopathy? What is the disease process of type 2 diabetes? What does hemoglobin have to do with diabetes?
However, varying amounts of ketoacidosis are being seen in type 2 diabetics. Adequate patient education about diabetes is an important way to prevent DKA from developing. When the body attempts to compensate for starvation, ketoacidosis develops. When fasting, the body normally performs transitions ...
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 of diabetes mellitus; ‘K’, the presence...
2.This condition occurring as a complication of untreated or improperly controlled diabetes mellitus, especially type 1 diabetes, characterized by thirst, fatigue, a fruity odor on the breath, and other symptoms, and having the potential to progress to coma or death. Also calleddiabetic ketoacidosis...

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). ...
DKA occurs more frequently with type 1 diabetes, although 10% to 30% of cases occur in patients with type 2 diabetes,[2]in situations of extreme physiologic stress or acute illness. According to the morbidity and mortality review of the CDC, diabetes itself is one of the most common chronic...
ketoacidosis is a relative misnomer when applied to this condition; theoxidationof ethanol to acetaldehyde and acetate increases the [NADH]/[NAD+] ratio and hence the ratio [2–hydroxybutyrate]/[acetoacetate], so that dipstick tests for urinary ketones (which do not detect 2–hydroxybutyrate) ...
