Coma Acetonemic

Acetonomic coma is an acute metabolic disorder that can be caused by various reasons: alcohol and infectious poisoning, chronic diabetes, vitamin B12 deficiency, etc. With acetone coma, there is a sharp decrease in blood sugar levels and accumulation of ketone bodies in the body, which leads to disruption of the functioning of internal organs and systems. As the condition worsens, a feeling of hunger, severe weakness, loss of consciousness, and impaired coordination of movements appear. If help is not provided on time, this can lead to coma, respiratory arrest and death of the patient. To treat acetonomic comas, it is necessary to rehydrate the body using intravenous infusion of electrolyte solutions and insulin therapy. Corticosteroid hormones and antibiotics are also prescribed in severe cases. However, timely recognition of the disease and prompt initiation of treatment play a key role in order to avoid serious complications and consequences. Therefore, it is very important to be aware of the symptoms of acetonemic coma and quickly seek medical help.
