Diabetic ketoacidosis during pregnancy: A case report and review of the literature

Diabetik ketoasidoz (DKA), diabetin ciddi, akut bir metabolik komplikasyonudur. Hiperglisemi, metabolik asidoz ve artmış keton cisim konsantrasyonu ile karakterizedir. DKA, diabetik gebelerde nadir bir komplikasyondur ancak hem anne hem de fetus için riskli bir durumdur. Tüm tedavilere rağmen, fetusun kaybı ile sonuçlanabilir. DKA'nın erken ve agresif tedavisi yüksek perinatal mortalite düzeyini azaltabilir.

Gebelik sırasında diabetik ketoasidoz: Olgu sunumu ve literatür derlemesi

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a serious and an acute, metabolic complication of diabetes. It is characterized by the triad of hyperglycemia, metabolic acidosis, and increased ketone body concentration (ketonuria and ketonemia). DKA is a rare complication of diabetic women during pregnancy and it is risky for both mother and fetus. In spite of all treatment, it may result in fetal loss. However, early diagnosis and aggressive treatment of DKA may reduce the level of high perinatal mortality.
