The 5 I's of DKA
|
Insulin deficiency
Infxn Ischemia Intra-abdominal process (pancreatitis, cholecystitis) Iatrogenic (corticosteroids) |
|
What causes the hyperglycemia that leads to DKA?
|
Low insulin and high glucagon
|
|
Pathophysiology of DKA
|
Low insulin and high glucagon-> low glc uptake and gluconeogenesis-> hyperglycemia -> body cannot use glc -> ketosis due to increased FFA substrate
|
|
Clinical signs of DKA
|
Please give me KANDy:
PMNs Kussmaul's respirations AMS N/V/abdominal pain Dehydration |
|
What are kussmaul's respirations?
|
rapid and deep
|
|
Diagnostic paramers of DKA
|
AG metabolic acidosis
Ketosis (urine and serum) Hyperglycemia Pseudohyperkalemia Pseudohyponatremia High WBC High Amylase |
|
Why is K "high" in DKA?
|
Insulin pulls out water, K comes with it
|
|
Why is Na "low" in DKA?
|
Insulin pulls water out of cells -> dilutes serum
|
|
Corrected Na formula
|
(glucose - 100) x .016 + Na
|
|
Treatment of DKA
|
Normal saline at 10 mL/kg/hr
Insulin 10 units, then 0.1 U/kg/hr -Once glc lowers, add dextrose to IVF -Once AG normal, give SC insulin Electrolytes: add 20-40 mEq K to IVF when serum K < 4.5 |
|
Extreme hyperglycemia without ketoacidosis
Hyperosmolality AMS |
HONK
|
|
Causes of HONK
|
SImilar to causes of DKA
Plus: dehydration and renal failure |
|
Pathophysiology of HONK
|
Hyperglycemia -> osmotic diuresis-> dehydration -> prerenal azotemia -> increased glc from the proteins? -> etc
|
|
Clinical featurs of HONK
|
Dehydration
AMS Very high serum glc High serum osmolality No ketoacidosis |
|
Treatment of HONK
|
Hydration
Low dose insulin |
|
Etiologies of hypoglycemia in diabetics
|
Allowing your bld sugar to ROME:
Renal failure (decreased clearance of insulin) Oral hypoglycemics Missed meal Excess insulin |
|
Etiologies of hypoglycemia in non-diabetics
|
Decreased glc production
-Adrenal insufficiency -Glucagon deficiency -Hepatic or renal failure -Sepsis Excess insulin |
|
Glc level in hypoglycemia
|
< 50
|
|
