Abstract:The Joint British Diabetes Societies guidelines for the management of diabetic ketoacidosis (these do not cover Hyperosmolar Hyperglycaemic Syndrome) are available in full at: This article summarizes the main changes from previous guidelines and discusses the rationale for the new recommendations. The key points are: Monitoring of the response to treatment (i) The method of choice for monitoring the response to treatment is bedside measurement of capillary blood ketones using a ketone meter.(ii) If blood keton… Show more
“…37 The diagnosis should not depend upon the presence of ketones in the urine (which may be false negative because of increased resorption or may be present but not associated with ketosis or ketoacidosis) or even blood ketones but should be based on low bicarbonate (<15.0 mmol/L), low pH (<7.3) and quantitative excess of blood ketones over the limit that is considered diagnostic of DKA i.e. 3.0 mmol/L.…”

“…It was at this time that the JBDS Inpatient Care Group was also formed: a collaboration between ABCD, Diabetes UK, and the National Diabetes Inpatient Nurse Group comprising individuals interested in inpatient care. The authors of the initial ABCD DKA guideline were joined by others and a more comprehensive document was written, 1 and revised in 2013. 2 Given the infrequency and heterogeneity of the condition, it remains difficult for any one team to see sufficient numbers of cases to be able to assess the impact of the guidelines.…”

“…1 By 2013 data presented at the Diabetes UK Annual Professional Conference showed that over 85% of all UK hospitals who responded to an online questionnaire said that they had either adopted or adapted the guideline. In 2013 the guideline was then updated to reflect new evidence and to incorporate some of the suggestions, criticisms and comments made about the first edition.…”
The Joint British Diabetes Societies (JBDS) looked in detail at the evidence based management for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and generated a set of guidelines to support the management of this complex condition. Because of the nature of research into DKA there are some areas which have less of an evidence base, so expert commentary and experience support several of the recommendations. This article describes the historical basis of the development of the management of this condition, how we came to arrive at the present situation and why the ongoing national DKA audit is so important in elucidating what is currently happening across the UK in clinical practice.

ABSTRAK
Penggantian cecair adalah rawatan utama untuk kencing manis ketoacidosis (DKA). Pada masa ini pilihan terbaik daripada cecair masih diperdebatkan. 0.9% Normal Saline (NS) yang menyebabkan ketidakseimbangan metabolik dan asidosis metabolik biasanya digunakan. Sterofundin® merupakan kristaloid & Health Dec 2017;12(2): 179-192 Rossman H. et al. (Malaysian Clinical Practice Guidelines 2015). The ideal fluid for managing diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is controversial. Following substantial fluid loss due to osmotic diuresis, fluid deficit can be estimated up to 100 ml/ kg which is corrected within 24 hrs. Crystalloid 0.9% normal saline (NS) is currently the mainstay therapy for fluid replacement. Fluid replacement regiment for a systolic BP > 90 mmHg is 1000 mL of NS for the 1 st hr, another 1000 mL of NS for next 2 hrs and 1000 Kata kunci: jurang anion, diabetic ketoacidoses, keton, ph , saline, sterofundin
ABSTRACTFluid replacement is the mainstay treatment for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Currently, the best choice of fluids is still debatable. An amount of 0.9% sodium chloride is commonly used. Sterofundin® is an alternative crystalloid that is assumed to expedite resolution of acidosis. Advantages in sterofundin content being smaller significant ion difference (SID) to plasma and lower chloride content. The main objective of the study was to compare rate of acidosis resolution in DKA patients between treatment with 0.9% normal saline and Sterofundin over 12 hrs. Other objectives were to compare significant ion difference (SID), 12-hr blood ketone clearance and electrolyte balance between the two groups. The study was a prospective open labelled randomized control trial. This study was conducted over 6 months. Sample size of 18 was obtained with 9 for each arm. Main difference between two groups was initial median 2-hr pH level improvement (NS = +0.006 vs. Sterofundin = +0.05, P=0.063), however not being significant. Ketone, anion gap reduction, bicarbonate normalisation, sodium, chloride, urea and creatinine levels failed to show any significant differences between both groups. Twelve-hour median chloride levels increments were higher in the NS group (+11) compared to the sterofundin group (+6). There was no difference between mortality and morbidity. Comparing the two fluid groups, there was no significant biochemical differences during treatment of DKA. This was a pilot study that can initiate further clinical trials.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
