Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the rate of new-onset diabetes mellitus (DM) in patients presenting to our emergency department with diabetic ketoacidosis. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated hospital records of patients who presented to the Emergency Department at Istanbul Goztepe Research and Training Hospital between 01 April 2009 and 01 April 2011 and were diagnosed with diabetic ketoacidosis. 57 patients having complete clinical data were included in the study. Results: 45.6%of patients had type 1 DM, 33.3%- type 2 DM, and 21%of them were with new-onset DM. No statistically significant difference was found between type 1 DM, type 2 DM and new-onset DM patients with respect to arterial blood pH and HCO3 levels and serum sodium, potassium and plasma glucose levels at presentation as well as time of presentation (p>0.05), while HbA1c levels showed statistically significant difference in new-onset DM patients. Conclusion: No statistically significant difference was found between types of DM in patients diagnosed with diabetic ketoacidosis except for precipitating factors, age and HbA1c. Detecting high blood glucose levels in patients presenting to emergency room for reasons other than DM is not a rare condition. Cautious evaluation and recognition of these patients in emergency room for the possibility of undiagnosed DM is important for prevention of future diabetic ketoacidosis episodes.

Özet

Amaç: Bu araştırmanın amacı, acil serviste diyabetik ketoasidoz (DKA) tablosu ile başvuran hastalarda yeni tanı diyabet (DM) oranını araştırmaktır. Yöntem: Araştırmaya 01 Nisan 2009-01 Nisan 2011 tarihleri arasında İstanbul Göztepe Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi erişkin acil servisine başvuran ve diyabetik ketoasidoz tanısı konulan hastalar içinde dosya bilgileri tam olan 57 hasta alındı. Hastaların klinik ve laboratuvar verileri hasta dosyalarından geriye dönük olarak incelendi. Bulgular: Araştırmaya alınan hastalardan, %45.6’sında tip 1, %33.3’ünde tip 2, %21’inde ise yeni tanı diyabet sap-tandı. DKA tanısı alan hastaların başvuru arter kan gazı pH, HCO3 değerleri, serum sodyum ve potasyum, başvuru zamanı, plazma glukoz değeri açısından tip 1, tip 2 ve yeni tanı DM hastaları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark görülmezken (p>0.05), HbA1c değerleri yeni tanı DM hastalarında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı derecede yüksekti. Sonuç: Diyabetik ketoasidoz tanısı konulan farklı tiplerdeki hastalarda diyabet tipleri açısından etiyolojik nedenler, yaş ve HbA1c değerleri dışında istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı bir veriye rastlanmadı. Acil servise başka nedenlerle baş-vuran hastalarda kan şekeri yüksekliğinin tespit edilmesi nadir değildir. Bu tip hastalarda altta yatan diabetes mellitus açısından dikkatli olunması olası diyabetik ketoasidoz ataklarının engellenmesi bakımından önemlidir.
