A clinical trial to compare the efficacy of oral fluid versus intravenous fluid therapy for correction of dehydration at pH values ≥7.25 during therapy of DKA in children. Standard Protocols based on data from developed countries followed globally like Milwaukee Protocol and ISPAD consensus 2014 suggest fluid deficit correction at variable intervals over 24 hours and 48 hours respectively which show a 24 hour difference in fluid deficit correction. In a study of 635 episodes of DKA the mean time to correction of DKA and complete restoration of the circulation was 11.6 ± 6.2 h. There is a need for fluid trials for the early initiation of oral hydration therapy which may reduce overcorrection and its complication. Hypothesis of  the study is that after the resolution of acidosis state to a pH≥7.25(mild DKA), hydration of the child will be adequately improved, then remaining fluid replacement can be managed with oral hydration therapy instead of intravenous fluid hydration therapy; which will prevent overzealous hydration and its complications. Ongoing evaluation for resolution of acidosis using blood gas analysis will be done. Randomization done at stage after pH ≥ 7.25 and with GCS >12. The study is being done to observe the proprortion of children having successful hydration correction at the end of 48 hrs in both groups. To comparatively analyze the time taken by intravenous fluid versus oral fluid therapy after resolution of acidosis pH ≥ 7.25 in DKA to complete normalization of pH, bicarbonate, and ketonuria. Then further analysis will allow to compare the efficacy of oral fluid versus intravenous fluid therapy for correction of dehydration at pH values ≥7.25 during therapy of  diabetic ketoacidosis in children.
