Should we provide our DKA patients with sodium bicarbonate (bicarb) pushes or drips to improve their pH? Let's look at the data.
In this episode, we dive into the controversial topic of using bicarbonate in the management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Is it beneficial or harmful? We review the current evidence and guidelines to help you make informed decisions on whether to incorporate bicarb into your DKA protocol. Join us as we explore the potential benefits and risks of bicarbonate use, the impact on patient outcomes, and the implications for clinical practice.
