Abstract

AbstractIntroductionA mainstay in the acute management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is fluid resuscitation. Normal saline is recommended by the American Diabetes Association; however, it has been associated with hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis and acute kidney injury. Limited literature is available to determine the most appropriate crystalloid fluid to treat patients with DKA.ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to compare lactated Ringer's (LR) to normal saline (NS) in the acute management of DKA.MethodsThis was a retrospective, multicenter single health system cohort study. The primary outcome was to evaluate the time to high anion gap metabolic acidosis (HAGMA) resolution using LR compared to NS. Secondary outcomes included the incidence of nongap metabolic acidosis, hyperchloremia, acute kidney injury, and new renal replacement therapy. Other secondary outcomes included insulin infusion duration and hospital and intensive care unit length of stay. The Cox proportional hazards model was used for the primary outcome.ResultsA total of 771 patient encounters were included. Lactated Ringer's was associated with faster time to HAGMA resolution compared to NS (adjusted hazard ratio 1.325; 95% confidence interval 1.121–1.566; p < 0.001). No difference was found in complications such as incidence of nongap metabolic acidosis, hyperchloremia, acute kidney injury, and new renal replacement therapy between the LR and NS groups. Additionally, there was no difference in insulin infusion duration and hospital or intensive care unit length of stay.ConclusionTreatment with LR as the primary crystalloid for acute DKA management was associated with faster HAGMA resolution compared with NS. Similar incidence in complications and length of stay was observed between the two groups. The findings of this study add to the accumulating literature suggesting that balanced crystalloids may offer an advantage over NS for the treatment of patients with DKA.
