DKA diagnosis
•Hyperglycemia - blood glucose of >250 mg/dL (11 mmol/L) AND
•Metabolic acidosis - defined as a venous pH <7.3 or plasma bicarbonate <18
mEq/L AND
•Ketosis - determined by the presence of ketones in the blood or urine.
•Anion gap > 10
•Pco2 20-30 (N. 35-45)
DKA prevention
"sick day rules"; assess for underlying causes;
diagnosis and proper management of diabetes
DKA management
Give K supplement to prevent hypokalemia whtn giving continuous insulin (K
is bet 3.5 to 5)
Give D5Q to IV fluid when blood gluc 250 to prevent hypoglycemia rxn
When gluc<200, switch insulin drip to subQ injection
Type 2 diabetes
Bodys resistance to recognize and use insulin rather than a deficient production
of insulin-like type 1
