Abstract
To assess clinical profile of hypoglycemic patients. Eighty‐six patients with hypoglycemia of both genders were selected for this study. Parameters such as the etiology of hypoglycaemia were recorded. Assessment of blood glucose concentration by Accu‐Check Gluco‐stix was performed. Out of 86 patients, males were 46 (53.4%) and females were 40 (46.6%). Common clinical features were fever in 72%, LOC in 12%, anorexia in 67%, syncope in 45%, AMS in 26%, FND in 34%, fall in 31% and others in 27% patients. The difference was significant (p<0.05). Common causes of hypoglycemia was alcohol in 15%, skipped meal in 10%, insulin in 25%, OHA in 20%, OHA +insulin in 17%, and others in 13% cases. The difference was non‐significant (p>0.05). Common causes of hypoglycemia were skipped meal, alcohol, OHA, OHA +insulin and insulin. The most common clinical features were AMS, FND, anorexia, fever, LOC and syncope.
