The association between long-term glycaemic control, glycaemic gap and neurological outcome of in-hospital cardiac arrest in diabetics: A retrospective cohort study

For diabetic patients, poor long-term glycaemic control correlated with worse neurological recovery following an IHCA. The HbA1c-derived average BG level could be used as a reference point for glycaemic management during the early stage of post-cardiac arrest syndrome. The glycaemic gap could be used to identify the optimal glycaemic range around the reference point.
