W<\/span>e know that chronic high blood glucose can have serious long-term health consequences, but what happens when blood glucose rises extremely high in <\/span>a short time<\/span>? <\/span>Hyperglycaemia<\/span> can become an immediate<\/span>, potentially fatal<\/span> emergency. Here is what you need to <\/span>know!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We divide <\/span>hyperglycaemic<\/span> emergencies into two forms: Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) and Hyperosmolar <\/span>Hyperglycaemic<\/span> State (HHS). <\/span>Their common element is an extremely high blood glucose level, and they differ in the presence of ketones.<\/span> Ketones are an <\/span> alternative source of energy for the body when it cannot use energy from sugar due to a lack of insulin. Both DKA and HHS usually occur in insulin-dependent people due to missed insulin injections, <\/span>stress<\/span> or infection.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=“4.19.5″ _module_preset=“default“ text_font=“Avant Regular||||||||“ text_text_color=“#000000″ text_font_size=“30px“ text_line_height=“36px“ link_font=“||||on|||#89BBE5|“ link_text_color=“#89BBE5″ custom_margin=“0px||0px||false|false“ custom_padding=“0px||16px||false|false“ global_colors_info=“{}“]<\/p>\n

1. Diabetic <\/span> K<\/span> etoacidosis: <\/span><\/span>Keto – ketones, acidosis – acidification of the blood <\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/em> <\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text ul_item_indent=“20px“ ol_item_indent=“20px“ module_id=“post-body“ _builder_version=“4.19.5″ _module_preset=“default“ text_font=“Calibri Regular||||||||“ text_text_color=“#505358″ text_font_size=“18px“ text_line_height=“24px“ link_font=“||||on|||#89BBE5|“ link_text_color=“#89BBE5″ custom_margin=“0px||80px||false|false“ custom_margin_tablet=“0px||80px||false|false“ custom_margin_phone=“||48px||false|false“ custom_margin_last_edited=“on|phone“ custom_padding=“0px||0px||false|false“ global_colors_info=“{}“]<\/p>\n

DKA is <\/span>characterised<\/span> by <\/span>very high<\/span> blood glucose levels, usually 350 – <\/span>600 mg<\/span>\/dl, and <\/span>high levels<\/span> of ketones in blood and urine. Common symptoms are heavy breathing, diarrhea, vomiting, confusion and po<\/span>ssibly unconsciousness<\/span>. <\/span> DKA typically affects people with type 1 diabetes, where a complete lack of insulin leads to high ketone production. Because ketones are dangerous in <\/span>large amounts<\/span>, the body tries to get rid of <\/span>its toxic compounds (acetone)<\/span> by exha<\/span>ling them via the lungs – resulting in a fruity breath reminiscent of nail polish remover or alcohol. This is why people with DKA are often mistaken for passed-out drunks at night. Without immediate medical treatment, DKA can lead to severe dehydration, lo<\/span>ss of consciousness or death.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

2. Hyperosmolar <\/span>Hyperglycaemic<\/span> State <\/span> <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text ul_item_indent=“20px“ ol_item_indent=“20px“ module_id=“post-body“ _builder_version=“4.19.5″ _module_preset=“default“ text_font=“Calibri Regular||||||||“ text_text_color=“#505358″ text_font_size=“18px“ text_line_height=“24px“ link_font=“||||on|||#89BBE5|“ link_text_color=“#89BBE5″ custom_margin=“0px||80px||false|false“ custom_margin_tablet=“0px||80px||false|false“ custom_margin_phone=“||48px||false|false“ custom_margin_last_edited=“on|phone“ custom_padding=“0px||0px||false|false“ global_colors_info=“{}“]<\/p>\n

Hyperosmolar means that there is too much sugar (and other molecules) in the blood and not enough water to dilute it. In HHS we see <\/span><\/span>extremely<\/span><\/span> <\/span>high levels<\/span> of glucose, usually over <\/span>1000 mg<\/span>\/dl (55 mmol\/L), but no ketones. HHS develops slowly over several days<\/span> and occurs typically in people with type 2 diabetes, <\/span>often<\/span> older people. The first symptoms are often extreme thirst and dehydration, frequent <\/span>urination<\/span> and nausea. Warning signs of progression include confusion, loss of vision and eventually unconsciousn<\/span>ess or coma<\/span>. <\/span> <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Hyperglycemic Emergencies – Drunk or Diabetes? <\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text ul_item_indent=“20px“ ol_item_indent=“20px“ module_id=“post-body“ _builder_version=“4.19.5″ _module_preset=“default“ text_font=“Calibri Regular||||||||“ text_text_color=“#505358″ text_font_size=“18px“ text_line_height=“24px“ link_font=“||||on|||#89BBE5|“ link_text_color=“#89BBE5″ custom_margin=“0px||80px||false|false“ custom_margin_tablet=“0px||80px||false|false“ custom_margin_phone=“||48px||false|false“ custom_margin_last_edited=“on|phone“ custom_padding=“0px||0px||false|false“ global_colors_info=“{}“]<\/p>\n

As the brain is dependent on glucose for function, the first symptom of any disruption in glucose metabolism is often confusion or some change in mental status. When medical students ask, „Which patient should we do a glucose test on in the emergency room?\u201c A common response is: „Any funny patient!\u201c – referring to signs of confusion or odd behaviour when glucose metabolism has gone out of balance. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span>By looking out for these warning signs (confused, dehydrated, unconscious) in our environment, we can recognise hyperglycemic emergencies earlier and facilitate prompt, professional medical attention – and prevent dire consequences. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
