Explanation:

The Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic Nonketotic Syndrome (HHNS), also referred as the Hyperosmolar Hyperglycaemic State (HHS) is a dangerous health state caused by very high blood glucose levels. HHNS can have an effect on both types of diabetics; however it generally affects people with type 2 diabetes.

Preventing it involves taking plenty of non alcoholic and caffeine-free liquids (especially water) as well as monitoring your blood sugar level.
