from this equation.

Summary
DKA is a serious acute complication of hyperglycemia
that requires immediate intervention
Management strategies include insulin therapy (IV), fluid
resuscitation and electrolyte repletion
Following stabilization, a diabetes education, SMBG +/urine ketone monitoring, identification of precipitating
factors is recommended to prevent recurrence

Case Study 2
Current clinical situation:
A 23-year old male found unconscious in the hospital
parking lot
No external signs of trauma, but he is breathing
heavily
Initial hypothesis is alcohol intoxication because his
breath smells like alcohol
He is brought to the emergency room for evaluation
