Fluid Kinetics in Patients With Diabetic Ketoacidosis (FDKA)

December 9, 2019 updated by: Joachim Zdolsek, University Hospital, Linkoeping

The purpose with the study is to follow the fluid shifts that occur during fluid resuscitation of patients with diabetic ketoacidosis.

In the study measurements of changes in blood and urine concentrations of Sodium and Chloride as well as blood hemoglobin are used to mathematically calculate changes in distribution volumes of these different endogenous markers.

Detailed Description

Patients treated for diabetic ketoacidosis receive 1000 ml of Sodium Chloride during the first 30 minutes of treatment.

Before, during and after this infusion regular blood samples(and urine) are collected (0, 10, 20, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60, 120, 180 and 300 minutes after infusion start).

B-Hemoglobin, P-Albumine, B-Glucose, P-Sodium, P-Potassium. P-Chlorides, U-Sodium, U-Chloride and U-Glucose. Hourly volume of urine is measured.

The 30 minute infusion can be used to calculate the urine extracellular volume. Thereafter during infusion of Ringers acetate changes in electrolytes in blood as well as urine volume and in the urine excreted electrolytes can be used to calculate the fluid shifts between the different fluid compartments.

Eventually 8 to 12 hours later a second infusion of SodiumChloride is as a control performed.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Extracellular volume
Time Frame: 120 minutes
Masse balance as well as dilution af Sodium and Chloride are used to calculate extracellular volume during an infusion of SodiumChloride. Urine Sodium and Chloride are also measured to register and correct the mass balance.
120 minutes

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Distribution of strong and weak acids
Time Frame: 12 hours
Blood gases are followed. With the Stuart/(Loob) concept it is determined to what degree ketones, lactate or electrolyte shifts influence the acidosis of the blood.
12 hours
