Abstract

Abstract Background: Hypoglycemia is a decrease in blood glucose levels which is the most common side effect of diabetes mellitus due to its treatment and is rarely a concern for patients and health workers. However, because the patient neglects the mild hypoglycemia symptoms, they cannot be immediately identified and treated. Each Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patient with hypoglycemia has a different profile and manifestations. Objective: This study aims to identify the demography, clinical, and laboratory profiles of T2DM patients who experience hypoglycemia in the inpatient unit of RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya from January 2019 - March 2021. Material and method: This study is a retrospective descriptive study. Medical record data were collected through total sampling, then processed descriptively, and presented as a frequency distribution table. Results: The samples of this study were 83 T2DM patients with hypoglycemia. The most age group was > 65 years, with 33 (39.8%) patients. The most gender group was female in 55 (66.3%) patients, the most common chief complaint was decreased consciousness in 47 (56.6%) patients, and the most common results of head physical examination were anemic conjunctiva in 43 (51.8%) patients. Extremity examination results 13 (15.7%) patients had wounds, and 10 (12.0%) patients had edema. The results of the random plasma glucose (RPG) examination <40 mg/dl in 62 (74.7%) patients, low Hb in 66 (79.5%) patients, high leukocytes in 47 (56.6%) patients, and high BUN in 52 (62.7%) patients. SK was high in 42 (50.6%) patients, and albumin was low in 56 (67.5%) patients. Conclusion: From this study, T2DM patients with hypoglycemia events were highly female and primarily found in patients over 65 years with severe hypoglycemia.
