Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of hyperglycemia stress in children referred to the pediatric emergency department in Neyshabur city in 2015.
Methods: This descriptive-cross-sectional prospective study was conducted on 1484 children referred to emergency department in Neyshabur city. Clinical biography involving fever, seizure, dehydration, abnormal respiration, and admission to ICUs were considered as an independent stress. Blood glucose measured using glucose oxidase, enzyme, which was analyzed using Pars Azmoon kits. In this study, ≥150 mg/dL blood sugar was considered as hyperglycemia. The data were coded and entered into SPSS software version 16 and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics.
Results: In general, 79 patients (5.4%) had blood glucose greater than 150 mg/dL, that they were diagnosed with hyperglycemia. Also, 5.03% of children were identified with dehydration. There was a significant difference between the presence and absence of hyperglycemia and body temperature in children referred to the pediatric emergency department (χ2= 38.8) (P= 0.01).
Conclusions: Hyperglycemia stress is a common clinical event in patients referred to the emergency department. Although risk factor associated with hyperglycemic stress is not completely identified, there is a relationship between fever and dehydration with stress hyperglycemia
