Purpose:
Factors associated with adverse outcomes in ICU patients with type II (T2DM) are poorly defined. The main goal of this study is to determine the impact of pre-existing T2DM on 90-day mortality post ICU admission.
Material:
Post-hoc analysis from the FROG-ICU cohort. All patients admitted to ICU who were ventilated and/or treated by a vasoactive agent for >24 h were included. Association between T2DM and 90-day mortality was analyzed in unmatched, and populations matched by propensity score (PS) method to balance confounders recorded before ICU admission. Analysis was performed in non-imputed and imputed datasets.
Results:
2002 patients were included, and 16% had a history of T2DM. The latter were at inclusion more severely ill (SAPSII score 51(39-67) vs 48(35-61), p < 0.0001; Charlson score 2(1-3) vs 0(0-2), p < 0.0001). In the unmatched cohort, T2DM patients had a higher 90-day risk of death compared to no-DM patients (HR 1.35(1.1-1.65)). The 90-day risk of death was not significantly different T2DM and no T2DM patients after PS matching (HR: 0.81 (0.56-1.18). Results were similar with the analysis performed on imputed datasets (pooled HR: 0.95 (0.69-1.30)).
Conclusions:
In the present study, T2DM was not associated with 90-day mortality post ICU admission.
