Hyperglycemia
Elevated blood sugar level. It is most often seen as a consequence of therapy in premature infants. Steroid medication, excessive intravenously administered glucose, and infection can all cause elevated blood glucose levels.
hyperglycemia - high amounts of glucose (sugar) in the blood; diagnosed by blood tests, often done by heel stick; some babies may need insulin to control high glucose levels.
Hyperglycemia -- High blood sugar.
Hyperinsulinemia -- The overproduction of insulin such as that found in insulin resistance.
Hyperplasia -- A thickening of the endometrium. It can lead to abnormal, pre-cancerous cells.
Hyperglycemia: A condition of abnormally high blood sugar levels.
Hypoglycemia: A condition of abnormally low blood sugar levels.
In utero: Within the uterus; usually refers to the fetus.
Hyperglycemia: Increased blood sugar.
Hypertension: Pregnancy-induced-High blood pressure that occurs during pregnancy. Defined by an increase in the diastolic and/or systolic blood pressure.
High blood glucose (hyperglycemia)
When your body doesn't have enough insulin or isn't able to use insulin correctly, you could be at risk of having high blood glucose, also called hyperglycemia. This condition can be caused by: ...
Frequent blood sugar monitoring - perhaps up to seven or more times a day - can help you prevent low blood sugar and high blood sugar (hyperglycemia).
Frequent blood sugar monitoring — perhaps up to eight times a day — can help you prevent low blood sugar and high blood sugar (hyperglycemia).
The presence of fasting hyperglycemia (>105 mg/dl or >5.8 mmol/l) may be associated with an increase in the risk of intrauterine fetal death during the last 4 to 8 weeks of gestation.
The following are the most common symptoms of hyperglycemia (high blood sugar). However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
rapid weight loss
feeling sick ...
urine test - to detect albumin (a protein) which may indicate preeclampsia or toxemia, and sugar (which may indicate hyperglycemia)
growth, size, and development of the fetus ...
Gestational diabetes increases the risk of maternal hypertensive disorders, cesarean delivery, fetal macrosomia, neonatal hypoglycemia, jaundice, polycythemia, and hypocalcemia. In addition, fasting hyperglycemia may be associated with an increase in ...
starts when your body is not able to make and use all the insulin it needs for pregnancy. Without enough insulin, glucose cannot leave the blood and be changed to energy. Glucose builds up in the blood to high levels. This is called hyperglycemia.
Insulin enables the glucose to leave the blood and change to energy. When the glucose can not leave, it builds up in the blood. This leads to high levels of glucose in the blood and is known as hyperglycemia.
