Abstract: |
B Discussion: b The use of plasmalyte in place of normal saline during resuscitation for pediatric DKA did not show an appreciable change in peak serum chloride, and while the time to resolution acidosis did decrease it was not statistically significant. The mean pre-intervention peak serum chloride level was compared to the post-intervention peak serum chloride level using an unpaired t-test with equal variances. [Extracted from the article] |
