This systematic review and meta-analysis revealed that the prevalence of DKA among patients with DM in Ethiopia was 30.92%. Besides, different behavioural and clinical determinants of DKA among patients with DM were identified. However, further studies should be conducted, particularly on the possible determinants of DKA, and different stakeholders should be engaged to minimise its burden.
