Gilbert, PharmD, MBA, FCCM, FNCS, BCCCP, to discuss their study on the early administration of subcutaneous (SQ) basal insulin in mild to moderate diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The episode covers the definition and treatment of DKA, the role of insulin therapy, and the design and results of the retrospective study, which found no significant difference in hospital length of stay between early and non-early SQ basal insulin groups. The discussion includes an analysis of the study outcomes, clinical implications, and the need for further research. Tessa R. Cox and Brian W. Gilbert share their expert insights on DKA management and the relevance of the study findings to emergency medicine.
