“…Case reports on neonatal hyperglycaemia are limited, particularly from Indonesia. The present study found six international case reports that are summarised in Table II (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20) and Table III (4)(5)(6)(7)(8). No definitive guidelines for neonatal hyperglycaemia have been established to date, at least to the best of our knowledge (10).…”

“…The lack of a universally accepted definition and blood glucose threshold makes it difficult to determine the prevalence of neonatal hyperglycaemia. However, recent studies conducted over the past 5 years have estimated the incidence to range from 6 to 69% (4)(5)(6)(7)(8). Neonatal hyperglycaemia is associated with negative consequences in extremely preterm and VLBW/ELBW neonates, including sepsis, intracranial haemorrhage, retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), necrotising enterocolitis (NEC), the requirement for ventilator support, growth retardation and increased mortality rates (9,10).…”

“…This is related to the imperfect function of islet β cells and immature glycogen decomposing enzymes leading to insulin resistance in premature infants. Newborns with asphyxia, infection, and hypothermia are also prone to hyperglycemia [5]. Iatrogenic hyperglycemia is common in intravenous glucose infusion rate ≥ 5.1mg/kg.min [6].…”
