Article Synopsis
- This study investigated the risk factors for severe hypoglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus at a hospital in Indonesia, focusing on those who had been attending the clinic for at least a year.
- Out of 291 participants, 25.4% experienced at least one severe hypoglycemia episode in the past year, with significant links found to previous severe hypoglycemia events, reduced kidney function (eGFR under 60 mL/min/1.73m), and insulin use.
- The findings highlight that having a history of severe hypoglycemia, impaired kidney function, and insulin therapy substantially increase the risk of future severe hypoglycemic episodes.
