PG - 1870-1877 LID - 10.2337/dc17-1583 [doi] AB - OBJECTIVE: This study determined trends in hospital admission for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) from 1998 to 2013 in England. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: The study population included 23,246 adults with T1DM and 241,441 adults with T2DM from the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) and Hospital Episode Statistics (HES). All hospital admissions for DKA as the primary diagnosis from 1998 to 2013 were identified. Trends in hospital admission for DKA in incidence, length of hospital stay, 30-day all-cause readmission rate, and 30-day and 1-year all-cause mortality rates were determined using joinpoint regression, negative binomial regression, and logistic regression models. RESULTS: For T1DM, the incidence of hospital admission for DKA increased between 1998 and 2007 and remained static until 2013. The incidence in 2013 was higher than that in 1998 (incidence rate ratio 1.53 [95% CI 1.09-2.16]). For T2DM, the incidence increased 4.24% (2.82-5.69) annually between 1998 and 2013. The length of hospital stay decreased over time for both diabetes types (P
