Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA)

A serious condition that occurs when there is not enough

insulin to allow the glucose in the blood to be used by the

cells in your body for energy. The cells begin to burn the

body’s stored fat reserves for fuel. Ketones are produced

when fat is burned and these ketones change the chemis-

try of the body. Ketones can be detected using a blood or

urine test. DKA can happen within a few hours when there

is not enough insulin available, and can lead to uncon-

sciousness and death. Signs and symptoms include: dry

skin/tongue, nausea and/or vomiting, fruity odor to breath,

shortness of breath, rapid pulse, rapid breathing, BG level

over 300 mg/dl (17 mmol/L), unresponsiveness, coma.

Treatment: since some of the early symptoms may be

explained as flu or food poisoning, it is vital to immedi-

ately test your BG level and urine for ketones. Treat the

high blood glucose, and if moderate to high levels of ke-

tones are present in your urine, follow the DKA corrective

action plan from your your healthcare provider. Call your

healthcare provider.

Checking your BG level regularly and properly treating

high blood glucose (hyperglycemia) can help you avoid

DKA.
