0.9% Saline Versus Balanced Solutions in Severe Diabetic Ketoacidosis
Metabolic Ketoacidosis, Ketoacidemia, Acetonemia
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Metabolic Ketoacidosis focused on measuring Severe diabetic ketoacidosis,, Sodium chloride 0.9%, Ringer lactate, Base excess
Eligibility Criteria

Sodium chloride 0.9% (SC) arm
Ringer lactate (RL) arm
The SC arm receives insulin therapy via an electric syringe (Actrapid HM ®, Novorapide®) (1 ml = 100 IU) - take 0.5 ml (= 40 IU) and complete to 50 ml with SC to obtain a solution of 1 ml = 1 IU. -Infusion rate = 0.1 IU/kg/h. In parallel, and on an insulin-independent route, 0.9% chloride saline is started on the basis of 3 L/ 24 hours per day if capillary glyceamia>2,5 g/l . Blood samples were taken for glycemia, arterial Blood gas, electrolytes, lactate at baseline, 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours later.
