The goal of treatment is to correct the high blood glucose level by giving the body more insulin. Another goal is to replace fluids lost due to excessive urination and vomiting. Hopefully you can see the signs before your ketoacidosis gets out of hand, but if gets severe you will need to go to the hospital. At the hospital they will give you an insulin replacement, fluids and electrolytes will be replaced and the cause of the condition (such as an infection) will be found and treated.
If you have diabetes type 1 you can test early for diabetic ketoacidosis. The test is done by testing your ketones in a urine sample. Ketone testing is usually done when your blood sugar is higher than 240 mg/dl, during an illness such as pneumonia, heart attack or stroke, when nausea and vomiting occur, or during pregnancy. Other tests you can do to check for diabetic ketosacidosis are:
Arterial blood gas
Blood glucose test
Blood pressure measurement
Amylase blood test
Potassium blood test
Acidosis can lead to serious illness and death. With improved therapy for young people they have significantly reduced the amount of deaths, but it is still an increasing problem in the elderly who fall into a coma when their acidosis isn’t treated quickly enough.
