Approaching DKA & Euglycemic DKA

This lecture reviews the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and emergency management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and euglycemic DKA (EDKA) in dogs and cats. Emphasis is placed on fluid resuscitation, electrolyte monitoring, insulin therapy, and the identification of concurrent disease processes. Special considerations for euglycemic DKA, including risks associated with SGLT2 inhibitors and the need for tailored glucose support, are also discussed.
