Pathophysiology of Diabetic Ketoacidosis and Hyperglycemic Hyperosmolar Nonketotic Syndrome Etiology
Etiology:
1.Infection
2. inadequate insulin administration, or
cardiovascular diseases
In an attempt to supply energy cells, this These hormones activate lipolysis and
hormone increases hepatic and renal fatty acid metabolism for alternative fuel
glucose production
Osmotic diuresis
(increased urination rate)
Metabolic Acidosis
Polyuria
(Increased frequency of urination and Body compensates by increasing
excessive amount of urine) ventilation to reduce carbon dioxide
(acid) in the body
Increased osmolality
(Hyperosmolality) However, potassium is
constantly excreted in urine
during osmotic diuresis,
the overall potassium level
in the body is eventually
depleted
