Official Title: Management of Diabetic Ketoacidosis in Children: Does Early Glargine Prevent Rebound Hyperglycemia?
Brief Summary: A frequent complication in the management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in children with type 1 diabetes is rebound hyperglycemia (blood glucose over 180 mg/dL) which increases the risk of re-developing DKA and can lengthen the hospital stay. The investigators want to study whether giving the long-acting insulin glargine (Lantus®) early in DKA management (versus after complete resolution of the DKA) helps prevent rebound hyperglycemia and makes the transition to insulin injections easier. Participants will also have the option to wear a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) during the study to help us understand blood glucose control during and after DKA.
