Shortness of breath in diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is primarily caused by metabolic acidosis, leading to an increased respiratory rate as the body attempts to compensate for the acidosis by expelling carbon dioxide. Additionally, the accumulation of ketones and other acids can result in pulmonary edema or impaired gas exchange, further exacerbating respiratory difficulties. Dehydration and electrolyte imbalances associated with DKA can also affect respiratory function. Overall, these factors contribute to the sensation of breathlessness experienced by patients in DKA.
