Diabetic Hyperglycaemia (Kids)

Diabetic children sometimes attend ED with hyperglycaemia, but not in DKA (what should we do?)

Paeds have produced some advice to follow:

Ketones over 0.6?
- <0.6: Encourage fluids & food, may need an insulin correction
- >0.6: ask Question 2
Are there clinical features of DKA?
- NO: Encourage fluids & food, decide Insulin correction, will need to be monitored
- YES: Will need Paeds admission
