Incidence of hypoglycemia in Diabetic Mellitus patients in Pattananikom Hospital
Hypoglycemia is a medical emergency requiring prompt recognition and treatment to prevent organ and brain damage. This study aims to find out the incidence of hypoglycemia and association factors for providing guidance to healthcare providers to safely and effectively assist diabetic patients. A retrospective cohort study was collected from secondary data from the Pattananikom hospital database. A total of 1155 Thai diabetes participants aged 35 years or older in 2019 were included in the study. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze demographic data. Logistic regression was performed to determine the associated factors of hypoglycemia. Factors with p-value less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. The incidence of hypoglycemia (DTX < 70 mg/dl) was 4 %. In addition, hypoglycemia was associated with chronic kidney disease (OR: 0.04, p-value < 0.01), history of peripheral artery disease (39.22, < 0.01), regular insulin usage (0.03, < 0.01), and LDL equal to 100 mg/dl and above (0.15, 0.02). However, further studies could provide informative insights into the causal relationship of factors related to hypoglycemia.
