Overview
Effective measures for the primary prevention of hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) include recognition of early signs of HHS, implementation of early and aggressive interventions (especially in patients with recurrent episodes of (HHS), tight glycemic control especially in patients with chronic illnesses, and education of patients and their family members.
Primary Prevention
Effective measures for the primary prevention of hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state include:[1][2][3][4]
- Recognition of early signs:
- Early recognition of inciting event:
- Missed insulin dose or error in dosing
- Intercurrent illness, especially infection
- Psychologic stress
- Surgery or trauma
- Early intervention:
- Enhanced and more frequent monitoring of blood glucose
- Increased fluid intake
- Seek advice from health care team
- Aggressive intervention in patients with recurrent episodes:
- Psychiatric evaluation
- Individual and family evaluation/intervention
- Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion helpful in some patients
- Possible out-of-home placement
- Never discontinue insulin during illness without contacting health care provider
- Having medication available to treat an infection
