Core Tip
Core Tip: Pediatricians should pay attention to the prevention of further damage to kidney function in children with Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and acute kidney injury (AKI), and it is necessary to rationally use PK model to achieve drug safety. It is of concern that children with DKA and AKI events must be followed up to determine the development of AKI. Risk factors that may further affect kidney function also need to be avoided.
