Wednesday, October 18, 2023

DKA is a serious complication of diabetes that can be life-threatening. DKA is most common among children with Type 1 diabetes, however adults with Type 2 diabetes can also develop DKA. DKA occurs when the insulin level drops rapidly and can’t drive blood sugar into the cells for use as fuel supply. Under this condition, the liver starts to break down fat for energy -- a process that generates acidic substances called ketones, which can accumulate to dangerous levels in the body. Acetone is a volatile ketone which can be detected in the breath. If left untreated, DKA can escalate within 24 hours into life-threatening conditions such as brain swelling, cardiac arrest, kidney damage, coma and death.

  • FREEHOLD, N.J., Oct. 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Avalon GloboCare Corp.
