Association of Hyperglycemia with In-Hospital Mortality and Morbidity in Libyan Patients with Diabetes and Acute Coronary Syndromes

Abstract: In patients with diabetes and acute coronary syndrome, hyperglycemia during hospitalization predicted a worse outcome in terms of the rates of in-hospital complications and in-hospital mortality. Hyperglycemia at the time of admission was also associated with higher rate of complications particularly at the time of presentation.

“…Studies demonstrate that variation in glycemic levels may: increase the rate of complications and mortality in hospitalized patients with acute coronary syndrome 6 , compromise renal function and structure 7 , and lead to endothelial dysfunction 8 . These consequences can have negative impact on productivity, quality of life and survival, and involve high costs related to treatment 9 .…”

“…The previous studies reported that high glucose levels are closely related to mortality in ACS patients [2], [12], [18] and as such an increase in glucose level in the first 24 h of hospitalization is assumed to be a predictor of death within 30-180 days [12]. It is also described as an acute response to a hyperadrenergic state with an increased risk of thrombosis which worsens the condition of ACS patients and finally leads to death [19].…”

“…Cardiovascular disease cases are increasing daily and this is supported by the results of RISKESDAS 2018 which showed that approximately 1.5% of Indonesia's population (1.01729 million) is suffering from heart diseases caused by the change of behavior and lifestyle of the community [1]. Coronary heart disease comes with many complications which are usually life threatening such as the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) [2].…”

“…O DE risco de glicemia instável também foi identificado [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]28 , sendo este um dos principais diagnósticos de enfermagem a ser considerado no paciente diabético a fim de evitar as complicações decorrentes das alterações glicêmicas. Em relação aos fatores de risco de glicemia instável foram encontrados: alterações nos níveis de hemoglobina glicada, índice de massa corpórea >31 Kg/m 2 , história prévia de hipoglicemia, déficit cognitivo/demência, neuropatia autonômica cardiovascular, comorbidades e perda de peso que correspondem a fatores de risco descritos na taxonomia NANDA-I 4,29 .…”
