Abstract:Background: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is an acute, major, life-threatening complication of diabetes, Assessment of risk factors play important roles in decreasing morbidity and mortality secondary to diabetic ketoacidosis. Aim: To assess risk factors for diabetic ketoacidosis among diabetic patients at Sohag University Hospital. Research design: Case- control retrospective study design was utilized in this study. Setting: The study was conducted in Emergency Medical unit, Internal Medical department, and Outpatient Clinics of diabetes at Sohag University Hospital. Sample: 160 adult diabetic patients enrolled in this study. Tool: Patient assessment sheet for diabetic ketoacidosis was utilized for data collections during the period from January 2019 and ended October 2020. Results: The finding shows that age (OR-1.21, CI-95%,125-320) as non-modifiable risk factors, dehydration (OR- 5.57, CI-95% 140- 780),infection (OR-7.85,CI 420- 3300) poor compliance with treatment (OR-10...

Diabetic Ketoacidosis among Diabetic Patients Admitted in the Department of Medicine of a Tertiary Care Centre: A Descriptive Cross-sectional StudyIntroduction: Diabetic ketoacidosis is one of the most severe acute complications of diabetes mellitus characterised by hyperglycemia, hyperketonemia, and metabolic acidosis. Prompt diagnosis and treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis can decrease severity, hospital stay, and possible mortality. This study aimed to find out the prevalence of diabetic ketoacidosis among diabetic patients admitted to the department of medicine of a tertiary care centre. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary care centre. Data from 1 March 2022 to 1 December 2022 were collected between 1 January 2023 and 1 February 2023 from the hospital records. The ethical approval was taken from the Institutional Review Committee of the same institute (Reference number: 466/2079/80). All the diabetic patients admitted to the Department of Medicine during our study duration were enrolled for the study. Diabetic patients who left against medical advice and those with incomplete data we...

Incidence, predisposing factors and complications of Diabetic Ketoacidosis in diabetic patientsBackground: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is the final consequence and lifethreatening complication of severe insulin deficiency in type 1 diabetes with occurrence of 20-40%. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and predisposing factors of DKA and its consequences. Methods: This retrospective study was performed on 128 diabetic patients in Amirkola Children's Hospital in 2005-2013. Patients' data were recorded in a predetermined questionnaire. The data were analyzed using SPSS.18. Results: Of all 128 hospitalized diabetic patients, 103 patients (80.5%) were referred for the first time and 25 (19.5%) patients were previously treated with insulin. Of total 128 patients, 71 (55.5%) had some degree of ketoacidosis that severe ketoacidosis was the most common form (in 36 cases; 50.7%). Among patients with the diagnosis of ketoacidosis (71 patients), 54 patients (76%) presented with DKA as the first symptom of diabetes. Generally, the predisposing factors of ketoacidosis were seen in 39 (54.9%) patients, which were due to infections and insulin therapy discontinuation in 27 (69.23%) and 12 (30.76%) of them, respectively. In patients with previous diagnosis of diabetes mellitus and history of admission with diabetic ketoacidosis, 70.58% had previous treatment cessation. Conclusions: In the current study, the incidence of ketoacidosis was high (55.5%). This subject seems to be related to lack of information about diabetes mellitus among population who require the universal education. On the other hand, in respect to high incidence of DKA among patients with cessation of previous insulin treatment, rigorous and complete training of them is critical.

Clinical profile of diabetic ketoacidosis in tertiary care hospital of Eastern NepalDiabetes ketoacidoisis (DKA) is characterized by hyperketonaemia, metabolic acidosis, and hyperglycemia. The aim of this study was to describe the demographic profile, clinical characterstics of patients admitted with diabetic ketoacidosis in BPKIHS, medical ward. The hospital based descriptive study. We took all the patients admitted with a diagnosis of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) as defined ADA 2006 consensus statement in medical ward from January 2010 to December 2010. The statistical operations was done through Manufactured by IBM Corp. Only sixteen patients (7 type 1 and 9 type 2DM) were with DKA. When compared to the 16 subjects with type 1 DM, the type 2 were older (56.8 s 25.7 years) and had a significantly higher PH levels (7.11 s 7.28 P = 0.04). The mean body mass index was 20.5±2.44 in both Type 1 and type 2 DM. Four were on diet control and Insulin respectively. Five were on oral hypoglycemic agents (OHA) and three on both (insulin and OHA). Infection was most common pre...

Diabetic ketoacidosis; Annual Incidence and Precipitating Factors at King Abdulaziz Medical city, Jeddah2018 •
Introduction: Diabetes is a recognizable and major health burden in Saudi Arabia. The incidence of Diabetes Mellitus Type 1 (DM1) reached 109.5 per 100,000 child and adolescent. One of the major life-threatening complications of DM1 is Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA). This study aims to estimate DKA incidence among DM1 patients and possible risk factors. Methods: Retrospective review for DM1 patients at King Abdul-Aziz Medical City, and who was presented with DKA during the past six and half years. Results: Three hundred and fifty DM1 patients were included and (72) experienced DKA during study period. The average annual DKA onset was (6.2%). Mean age was (22.82 ± 5.567) years, and females constituted (66.7%) of this group. Poor medication compliance was the commonest risk factor associated with DKA, and this relationship was found significant (P-value 0.003). Out of the total DKA sufferers, (28) patients experienced recurrent or multiple DKA episodes, and those had higher HbA1C levels ...

Background: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is one of many life-threatening complications of diabetes mellitus (DM), which is characterized by severe hyperglycemia, metabolic acidosis and ketonemia. This complication can eventually lead to coma and death if not treated properly. Purpose: The aim of this study is to describe the profile of the DKA patients who were at Regional Public Hospital (RSUD) Dr. Soetomo in 2017. Methods: This study was a descriptive study that used the medical record data of DKA patients who were at RSUD Dr. Soetomo in 2017. The study’s total sample size was 63 patients. The study’s variables were gender, age, type of DM, severity of DKA, precipitating factors, main complaints, vital signs, random plasma glucose level, electrolyte level, and blood gas analysis. The frequency, mean, and standard deviation were analyzed. Results: Most of the 63 DKA patients were female (66.67%), aged from 50–59 years (38.10%). The DKA cases being handled by the Dr. Soetomo Hospital...
