  • Diabetic Ketoacidosis or DKA is a medical emergency that I never take lightly. This real-life clinical case is about a young female with type I diabetes who presented to us with classical symptoms. We were able to treat her successfully with IV fluids and Insulin.
    Topics Discussed in this animation are,
    1) Symptoms of DKA
    2) Diagnosis of DKA
    3) Pathophysiology of Diabetic Ketoacidosis
    4) Fluid therapy in Ketoacidosis
    5) Insulin therapy in Ketoacidosis
    6) Finding etiologies for DKA

    Note: Kussmaul breathing is rapid and deep. the breathing pattern I have described is rapid and shallow; which tallies with typical hyperventilation seen in metabolic acidosis. As the acidosis worsens, breathing becomes rapid and deep (Kussmaul pattern)

    This exactly what I had but I had codvic as well . I spent 3 months in the hospital. I was unconscious for the first month . My kidneys stop working completely plus my lungs collapsed then my ph was super low. Also Insulin treatment wasn’t working for me ( nothing was lowering my blood sugar) . After all of that I spent 3 weeks in rehab learning how to walk and do basic things . People please check your sugar

    Yes, DKA can cause death. The best way to avoid DKA - one way - if you have Type 1 diabetes, is to try to avoid being sick. Being sick is a risk factor for it. But if you do end up sick (like, getting an UTI), you need to get hydrated, and you may have to take more insulin as normal, up to the 200 mg/dl limit. Maybe more insulin than normal. But be careful - ease off insulin intervention in DKA too fast, and this means cerebral edema, which, like DKA in itself, could kill too. If you ease off, 5 percent dextrose is the key.

      Hi
      1) Glucose is Highly osmatic.
      2) When the blood glucose falls rapidly, so does the osmolality of blood.
      3) Then fluid shifts from Plasma to Intra-cellular space.
      4) Cellular edema occurs in brain (skull is non-expandable)
      You can read the full explanation on by blog, through the link in the description. Thanks.

      I kind of wondered that myself, why the very first thing her mother said wasn't that she's type one. I don't think it has anything to do with the American health care system though. It might have been her first DKA - people can explain it to you all day long and it will improve your odds of knowing what it is, but until you've either been through it or seen somebody go through it, you won't necessarily really know. I personally was diagnosed at 10 years old but hadn't yet gone into DKA when that happened, so a few months later when it finally did (as the result of an infection) my family and I really had no clue, we just went to the ER. Only then did we learn a lot of important things, and we got to know about the fruity breath smell. I swear my mom could smell that on me even before I realized myself something was seriously wrong.

    I am not diabetic but last time I got a urine test done, they told me my ketone levels were slightly high. At least I think that is what it was although I could be wrong unless there is something else commonly looked for that starts with a k. Honestly, I feel like with urine tests I screw them up and contaminate the cup and I never know if mid stream is mid stream enough. I don't have any of these symptoms though. I drink a lot of water yes, but that's to avoid constant snacking.

    • @TinyMedicine
      @TinyMedicine  2 роки тому +3

      Were you drunk (alcohol) before the test? Ketones can be produced and found in the urine in many conditions such as Diabetes, Extreme Fasting, or heavy alcohol consumption.

      @whatsanenigma Рік тому +2

      Sometimes. In fact, that's how people with diabetes died back in the days before insulin. More commonly, though, it's due to something like an infection making the blood sugar hard to control, or people not taking the full amount of insulin they need for whatever reason - cost, an inability to accept that they need to take it, or sometimes even something called diabulemia, where a type one diabetic takes too little insulin on purpose to lose weight and ends up overdoing it.

      Infections can cause prolonged high blood sugar that can't be easily brought down with insulin. Prolonged high blood sugar causes DKA.
