Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) occurs in 26% of children with new-onset type 1 diabetes and is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in children with diabetes. For patients with DKA, the main principles of management include rapid assessment and treatment with insulin and intravenous fluid administration. A nursing-led process was designed to improve identification of this high-risk population and expedite the delivery of insulin within one hour from insulin order and two hours from triage assessment.
