Diabetic Ketoacidosis in Pregnancy
Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America, 2007Episodes of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) can represent a life-threatening emergency for mother and fetus. The cornerstones of treatment of DKA are aggressive fluid replacement and insulin administration while ascertaining which precipitating factors brought about the current episode of DKA, and then treating accordingly to mitigate those factors.

The availability of insulin has dramatically influenced the prognosis of patients with insulin-requiring diabetes. The mortality rate of patients presenting with severe diabetic ketoacidosis has fallen to 0.5–15% in the best centres. A higher figure, however, still remains in less specialised units and in elderly patients it may be as high as 50%.

Diabetic Ketoacidosis in Children
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2005Although diabetic ketoacidosis should, theoretically, be largely preventable in patients with established diabetes, a recent report from a major US childhood diabetes center showed that children with type 1 diabetes remain at high risk for diabetic ketoacidosis, with an incidence of 8 per 100 patient-years.

Diabetic Ketoacidosis in Pregnancy
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2014Pregnancies complicated by diabetic ketoacidosis are associated with increased rates of perinatal morbidity and mortality. A high index of suspicion is required, because diabetic ketoacidosis onset in pregnancy can be insidious, usually at lower glucose levels, and often progresses more rapidly as compared with

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a complex and potentially fatal metabolic disorder in patients with diabetes mellitus. An understanding of the pathophysiology of DKA is essential in order to optimize patient management. A combination of insulin deficiency, increased stress hormone levels, and volume depletion account for the laboratory abnormalities and
