Hypoglycemia in Hospitalized Patients

NCT02228642 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 58

Last updated 2018-09-07

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients with diabetes who develop low blood sugars (hypoglycemia) in the hospital are at risk for losing the ability to develop symptoms that warn them that they are having a low blood sugar. There is almost no available information investigating how the inability to feel symptoms of a low blood sugar contributes to the risk of this happening when people with diabetes are hospitalized. The purpose of this study is to develop a symptom score model that will help to identify patients at risk for low blood sugars in the hospital and to examine what happens to patients who do experience a low blood sugar in the hospital.
