Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is an acute metabolic complication of diabetes mellitus, especially type 1 diabetes, in which dehydration is accompanied by ketosis and metabolic acidosis. Moderate or severe degrees of DKA are likely to lead to death without medical treatment. Treatment consists of hospitalization for intravenous administration of insulin, water and electrolytes, and usually results in full recovery.
