Diabetic ketoacidosis is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in children with type 1 diabetes. Management of diabetic ketoacidosis requires meticulous monitoring and treatment of severe dehydration and metabolic derangement. We present an adolescent patient who was diagnosed with diabetic ketoacidosis during spinal fusion for idiopathic scoliosis and discuss the management of this unexpected intraoperative emergency.

Management of SGLT-2 Inhibitors in the Perioperative Period: Withhold or Continue?

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are commonly prescribed in diabetes mellitus and increasingly for cardiorenal protection. They carry the risk of euglycaemic diabetic ketoacidosis (eDKA). Guidelines around the perioperative handling of these medications are limited and some evidence suggests that withholding them can lead to more surgical complications and poorer glycaemic control.

Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is a progressive autoimmune disease often identified in childhood or adolescence, with early stages detectable through pre-diabetic markers such as autoantibodies and subclinical beta-cell dysfunction. The identification of the pre-T1D stage is critical for preventing complications, such as diabetic ketoacidosis, and for enabling timely interventions that may alter disease progression. This review examines the multifaceted approach to managing T1D risk in adolescents and teens, emphasizing early detection, nutritional interventions, beta-cell preservation strategies, and psychosocial support.

Background: Type 1 diabetes is the most common endocrine health condition among youth. Healthcare professionals must consider evidence-based guidelines in managing children and adolescents with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The current study aims to assess the outcomes of implementing clinical guidelines by the American Diabetes Association to manage DKA among pediatrics in an emergency department in Palestine.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: There have been 2 primary methods of intravenous fluid administration for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) treatment described in the literature: the serial bag method and the 2-bag method.
Objectives: This study will assess the clinical outcomes and workflow efficiency after a transition in practice from the serial fluid method to the 2-bag method for pediatric DKA.
Methods: This was a retrospective chart review of pediatric DKA patients 18 years or younger, 1 year before and after the transition was conducted.
