Severe Hyperglycemic Hyperosmolar Nonketotic Coma in a Nondiabetic Patient Receiving Aripiprazole

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 2009
Aripiprazole is commonly used as an atypical antipsychotic. It has been associated with abnormalities in glucose metabolism. Severe diabetic complications associated with its use occur rarely. We present a case of a patient without a history of diabetes mellitus who presented to the emergency department in severe hyperosmolar nonketotic coma while ...

The emergency management of hyperglycemic-hyperosmolar nonketotic coma in the pediatric patient

Pediatric Emergency Care, 1996
We recommend consideration of HHNK in comatose pediatric patients and advocate the prompt institution of fluid therapy. Insulin is not required during the initial course of treatment and potentially can have adverse effects. Compared to adults, pediatric patients appear to be at a greater risk of developing potentially fatal cerebral during the course ...

[Diabetic ketoacidosis and hyperglycemic hyperosmolar nonketotic coma--a reappraisal after seven years].

Zhonghua yi xue za zhi = Chinese medical journal; Free China ed, 1990
In treating DKA and HHNK, low dose insulin therapy has been confirmed to be efficient and with less complications than traditional high dose insulin therapy. In 1981, we have reported 157 cases of DKA and HHNK at VGH. Between January 1986 and December 1987, 98 cases of DKA and HHNK were encountered at VGH.

[Diabetic emergencies : Hypoglycemia, ketoacidotic and hyperglycemic hyperosmolar nonketotic coma].

Der Internist, 2019
The diabetic emergencies diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state (HHS) and hypoglycemia represent severe and potentially life-threatening complications of diabetes mellitus that require prompt diagnostics and treatment. Absolute or relative insulin insufficiency is characteristic of DKA und HHS along with severe dehydration.
