Glucose variability and mortality in patients hospitalized with acute myocardial infarction.
BACKGROUND Mean blood glucose (BG) during acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is an important predictor of inpatient mortality but does not capture glucose variability (GV), which has been shown to be independently associated with mortality in critically ill patients. Whether GV is associated with in-hospital mortality during AMI, after accounting for mean BG, is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS We...
متن کاملNormal Glucose Values Are Associated With a Lower Risk of Mortality in Hospitalized Patients
OBJECTIVE Hyperglycemia is a common condition in hospitalized patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between glycemia upon admission and mortality in a heterogeneous group of adult patients. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The 3-year records released from a general hospital were associated with a plasma glucose dataset of its general laboratory. A matched case-contro...
متن کاملGlucose control in hospitalized patients.
Evidence indicates that hospitalized patients with hyperglycemia do not benefit from tight blood glucose control. Maintaining a blood glucose level of less than 180 mg per dL (9.99 mmol per L) will minimize symptoms of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia without adversely affecting patient-oriented health outcomes. In the absence of modifying factors, physicians should continue patients' at-home dia...
متن کاملHigh mortality in hospitalized elderly patients with feeding tube placement.
OBJECTIVE We investigated the influence of feeding tube placement on survival in hospitalized elderly patients. METHODS To assess long-term mortality in an inception cohort and the influence of feeding tube placement on survival, one hundred six hospitalized elderly patients from a nursing home were followed up through and after the index hospitalization for placement of a feeding tube and mo...
متن کاملGlucose variability is associated with high mortality after severe burn.
BACKGROUND Hyperglycemia is associated with increased mortality in the severely injured; intensive insulin protocols reduce mortality, improve wound healing, and decrease susceptibility to infection. High glucose variability creates challenges to glycemic control and may be a marker of poor outcome. We wondered whether glycemic variability alone might identify patients at higher risk of death. ...
