Blood Glucose and Hospital Mortality in Non Diabetic Patients with AMI: Blood Glucose levels on admission: An Indicator for Hospital Mortality among Non … Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction

Product Description
This prospective study was conducted on 30 non diabetic men and women with acute myocardial infarction (AMI)admitted to a tertiary hospital in Bijapur,India. The cases were divided into group I to IV based on random blood sugar(RBS) i.e.,< 120mg%,120- 139mg%, 140- 167mg% and > 167mg% at the time of hospital admission. The subjects with higher RBS at the time of hospital admission were also found to have lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure. During their hospital stay a greater incidence of developing cardiogenic shock and lower left ventricular ejection fraction were noticed among the patients who were having greater RBS at the time of hospital admission.The study clearly reveals that RBS level of the patients at the time of hospital admission may be a potential indicator of hospital stay mortality among non diabetic patients presenting with AMI

What is the normal blood sugar level, for a healthy person?

Hi, my brother just went into hospital, and has a 400 blood sugar level, he is on drips, and is being given insulin, and so i was just wondering how high is that?? the doctors mentioned something about a coma??
