What is diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA)? - DiaBiteSize

FY 2017-18

Summary
Managing Type 1 diabetes can be tricky for children and youth. DiaBiteSize videos are short, animated explainer videos that help young people with diabetes take control of their condition. DiaBiteSize was conceived and developed at St. Michael's Hospital, Toronto by Dr. Andrew Advani, a Staff Endocrinologist who cares for young people with Type 1 diabetes, and Dr. Janet Parsons, a healthcare researcher who specializes in arts-based methods. In this video, DiaBiteSize talks about one of the dangers of Type 1 diabetes, a condition called diabetic ketoacidosis (or DKA). Using relatable analogies and accessible animation, sound and music, the video explains to the viewer how DKA can develop; why DKA may develop; how a person may recognize they have DKA; and what they can do themselves to stop DKA.
