  • New T1 Sick Day Guide from T1D Exchange

    Mar 29, 2023
    When a person with type 1 diabetes (T1D) gets sick, blood glucose (or sugar) can increase drastically. This can cause the blood to become acidic and lead to diabetes ketoacidosis (or DKA), a dangerous and life-threatening condition that requires immediate medical attention. Our friends at T1D Exchange and the T1D Exchange Quality Improvement Collaborative (T1DX-QI)’s Patient Parent Advisory Committee and physicians have created this Sick Day Management guide for people living with type 1 diabetes to manage their blood glucose when ill and provide tips to prevent DKA.
