Outcomes following hospitalization for diabetic ketoacidosis in patients with cardiovascular disease.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a serious complication in patients with diabetes. This study compares the outcomes of hospitalized DKA patients with and without cardiovascular disease (CVD). In addition, we assess outcomes between DKA and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome (HHS) in diabetes patients with CVD, and between those who developed DKA and those who did not.

Methods

We employed a population-based, retrospective observational design utilizing data sourced from the National Inpatient Sample database for the years 2016-2022. The primary outcome assessed was in-hospital mortality. In addition, various secondary outcomes were examined, including the incidence of acute respiratory failure, acute kidney failure, septic shock, sepsis, acute neurological failure
