Summary

Diabetic ketoacidosis and hyperglycaemic hyperosmolar syndrome are serious diabetes complications. Prompt treatment and identifying causes are key to improving outcomes and managing hypoglycemia.

Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology and Metabolism
  • Internal Medicine
  • Diabetology

Context:

  • Acute diabetes complications like diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperglycaemic hyperosmolar syndrome (HHS) present significant mortality risks.
  • Effective management hinges on standardized treatment protocols and rapid identification/treatment of precipitating factors.

Purpose:

  • To review the pathomechanism, clinical features, complications, and current management recommendations for DKA and HHS.
  • To summarize the clinical presentation and therapeutic options for hypoglycemia in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

Summary:

  • DKA and HHS are acute, high-mortality diabetes complications requiring standardized care.
  • Lactic acidosis can occur in type 2 diabetes due to hypoxia (type A) or, rarely, biguanide therapy (type B).
  • Hypoglycemia is a critical barrier to achieving glycemic targets in all diabetes types.

Impact:

  • Highlights the importance of prompt diagnosis and standardized protocols for reducing mortality in acute diabetes emergencies.
  • Underscores the challenges posed by lactic acidosis and hypoglycemia in diabetes management.
  • Provides a literature-based overview of therapeutic strategies for these critical conditions.
