Core Tip	Diabetic ketoacidosis is a complication for some patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus as well as for non-insulin dependent. It is treated commonly in the intensive care unit (ICU), even though clinical data from many studies support management in regular (medical/surgical) wards, avoiding expensive critical care unit costs and preventing bed crisis in these higher level of care units for sicker patients. Once the patient is treated, adequate follow up and education is mandatory. Noncompliance remains the primary concern for repeated admissions.
