Improving post-hypoglycaemic patient safety in the prehospital environment: a systematic review
Emergency Medicine Journal, 07/07/09
Fitzpatrick D et al. - Although several case reports demonstrate the risks associated with repeat or prolonged hypoglycaemia, the review was unable to locate any specific high quality research in this area. Consequently, caution is required in interpreting the findings of the studies. Post-hypoglycaemic patients treated in the prehospital environment have a 2–7% risk of experiencing a RHE within 48 h. The literature retrieved in this study recognises the potential for OHA to cause RHE.
