Study Design: Cross-sectional analytical study. Place and Duration of Study: The department of Pediatrics, neonatal unit of a tertiary care hospital, from Jan 2014 to Dec 2018. Methodology: Data on infants with prolonged hypoglycemia was collected retrospectively from hospital medical records. Cases of Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia were analyzed for demographic characteristics, associated risk factors, and details of time and age of diagnosis along with the management. Results: Fifty two cases (50.9%) were studied and treated for Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia out of 102 with prolong hypoglycemia. Male gender, Pregnancy induced hypertension, maternal diabetes and Small for gestational age were common risk factors associated with hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (p<0.05). Mean days taken to maintain normoglycemia on feed and medicine (off IV) was 7.7 ± 3.3, while total duration of medicine required for normoglycemia on feed only was 23.5 ± 2.0 days. Overall 48 cases (92%) were cured, 29 (56%) patients were treated with diazoxide, whereas 3 (6.0%) cases were lost to follow up in outpatient department and 1 (2.0%) patient died. Conclusion: Hyperinsulinemia remains a common cause of prolonged hypoglycemia in neonates. Male gender, Pregnancy induced hypertension, diabetes, and Small for gestational age are associated risk factors. Diazoxide is a safe and effective therapy.Vinod Kumar HasijaWaqar KhowajaSaroop ChandAdnan MirzaShabina ArrifArmy Medical College Rawalpindiarticleglucose infusion ratehyperinsulinemic hypoglycemiaprolonged hypoglycemiasmall for gestational age (sga)MedicineRMedicine (General)R5-920ENPakistan Armed Forces Medical Journal, Vol 70, Iss 5, Pp 1321-1326 (2020)
