Treatment with LR as the primary crystalloid for acute DKA management was associated with faster HAGMA resolution compared with NS. Similar incidence in complications and length of stay was observed between the two groups. The findings of this study add to the accumulating literature suggesting that balanced crystalloids may offer an advantage over NS for the treatment of patients with DKA.
