Acute respiratory distress syndrome in a case of diabetic ketoacidosis requiring ECMO support

Acute respiratory distress syndrome in a case of diabetic ketoacidosis requiring ECMO support

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a rare but life-threatening complication of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). We present the case of a young female, with no previous diagnosis of diabetes, presenting in DKA complicated by ARDS requiring extra corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) ventilator...
