Abstract:

Hypoglycemia is a condition in which blood sugar is unusually low. When glucose level is too low, the body is unable to perform its activities. From the obtained results from the Biochemical Laboratory at the PHI "General Hospital" - Strumica for the number of patients with hypoglycemia for a period of five years, ie from 2012 to 2016, it can be noticed that the number is not very large. The least number of tests were done In 2012, showing the presence of hypoglycemia in total 8 patients. In 2013, that number increases by 6 newly discovered cases, counting the presence of hypoglycemia in 14 patients. In 2014, were registered a total of 20 cases of hypoglycemia. In 2015, according to statistics, there was a decrease in the number of hypoglycemic patients to 17 cases. In 2016 the number increased again by 23 registered cases. Hypoglycemia as a disease is not very common in our society. To avoid the condition of hypoglycemia, it is best to follow the recommendations of health professionals in diabetics about the time and dose of insulin received because insulin overdose contributes to the condition of hypoglycemia, or proper nutrition for people who have hypoglycemia and are not diabetics.
