P23 Evolución de pacientes internados en clínica médica con nueva hiperglucemia (ambiglucemia)

Introduction: Hyperglycemia in the inpatients is associated to poor clinical outcome, although there is controversy about the magnitude of this effect on diabetic or not diabetic patients. Objectives: To differentiate two populations of inpatients with new hyperglycemia: (A)- previously unknown Diabetes Mellitus or debut, and (B)-unexpected Hyperglycemia; and to explore the associations between metabolic variables at admission, and clinical outcomes. We propose the term ambiglycemia (AmbiG) for this ambiguous glycemia (severity vs stress), with the same value but different meaning. Methods: Prospective cohort study with 2 years follow-up, watching the evolution of inpatients with new hyperglycemia (>140mg/dl confirmed), comparing two groups according to basal HbA1c at hospitalization (A) ≥6.5% or (B) <6.5%, and reclassifying through a new measurement of HbA1c at least 3 months after discharge. Statistics: SPSS v20.
