Official Title: Interest of Plasma Copeptin Levels in Management of Children With Diabetic Ketoacidosis
Brief Summary:
Children with diabetic ketoacidosis risk neurological complications such as cerebral edema with high morbidity. To prevent cerebral edema, it is essential to control correction of hypovolemia, hyperglycemia and natremia. Markers usually used in management of diabetic ketoacidosis don't always permit an optimal care.
Plasma copeptin levels reflect vasopressin secretion which is high in diabetic ketoacidosis.
Therefore, monitoring of plasma copeptin levels could be of interest in children with diabetic ketoacidosis and risk of sévère neurological complications.
