Abstract: Management of patients with DKA involves rehydration, administration of insulin, correction of electrolyte derangements, correction of metabolic acidosis, and treatment of precipitant factors. To date there are no randomized prospective studies that have evaluated the optimal hospital site for the management of patients with DKA. The decision where to care for patients with DKA must be based on known clinical prognostic indicators and on the local availability of hospital resources. The response to initial therapy in the emergency department can be used as a guideline for choosing the most appropriate hospital site for further care.
