Buckle up for an epic race through the twists and turns of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS)! In this thrilling video, we discover how infections, insulin therapy, and dehydration can trigger these conditions, and we distinguish between DKA’s association with type 1 diabetes and HHS’s predominance in type 2 diabetes. We’ll navigate the symptoms, diagnosis, and the all-important treatment track, where fluid replacement and insulin therapy are your pit crew, working tirelessly to manage potassium and glucose levels. Join us at the starting line to understand and manage these serious complications like a pro. Ready, set, learn!
