Abstract
Background: Diabetes-related ketoacidosis (DKA) is a common and potentially life-threatening complication in people with diabetes.1 Despite national and international guidelines, interhospital guideline variation and mismanagement during admission are important contributory factors to increased DKA duration and length of stay.
Aim: To establish a common DKA registry to identify gaps in management, assess outcomes and share best practises across centres.
