Overview
An x-ray may be helpful in identifying pneumonia as the precipitating factor for the development of hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state.
X-Ray
There are no chest x-ray findings associated with hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS). Common chest x-ray findings associated with the precipitating factors leading to the development of hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) are:[1]
- Infections are among the most common (40 - 60 %) precipitating factors for development of the hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state.
- The common infections are pneumonia and genitourinary tract infections.
- An x-ray may be helpful in the workup of hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state to rule out pneumonia.
