ABSTRACT
Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic State (HHS), often accompanied by comorbid conditions and commonly seen in elderly individuals, is a life-threatening complication of diabetes. It can stem from various underlying causes, with infection being the foremost. Dehydration stands out as the primary trigger for HHS. Diagnosis is established through anamnesis, physical examination, and laboratory tests. Prompt initiation of treatment is crucial, and patients require close monitoring.
Keywords: Hyperglycemic hyperosmolar nonketotic coma; insulin; diabetes complications
