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%.

Alcoholic ketoacidosis is characterized by a metabolic acidosis with an elevated anion gap. It generally is seen in the chronic alcoholic patient who has recently gone on a "binge" that was terminated because of complaints such as nausea, vomiting or abdominal pain. Caloric intake is diminished.

Transport of the pediatric patients with DKA to a tertiary care center may be safely accomplished with a thorough understanding of the conditions that may require it. The patient should be acutely stabilized and standard therapeutic regimens begun prior to and during transport.

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

Ketoacidosis and Adrenocortical Insufficiency
Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2014AbstractWe herein report an autopsy case involving a 27‐year‐old Caucasian woman suffering from chronic adrenocortical insufficiency with a background of a polyendocrine disorder. Postmortem biochemistry revealed pathologically decreased aldosterone, cortisol, and dehydroepiandrosterone levels in postmortem serum from femoral blood as well as decreased
