Diabetic Ketoacidosis
INTRODUCTION
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is an acute metabolic complication of diabetes characterized by an absolute or relative insulin deficiency resulting in hyperglycemia, hyperketonemia, and metabolic acidosis. DKA is an endocrine emergency that requires immediate treatment and close monitoring for metabolic derangements. It most commonly occurs in patients with a known history of type 1 diabetes; however, patients with type 2 diabetes are also at risk during states of acute illness. In some cases, DKA may be the first manifestation of diabetes, especially in developing countries.
