Abstract
The prevalence of undiagnosed diabetes mellitus (DM) among patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is alarmingly high, impacting clinical outcomes and necessitating improved screening strategies. This study aim to quantify the prevalence of undiagnosed DM in ACS patients, comparing diagnostic criteria such as the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) and HbA1c levels. The findings highlight a substantial proportion of undiagnosed DM detected by several methods. Enhanced screening protocols integrating multiple diagnostic methods are crucial for optimizing management and improving cardiovascular outcomes in this high-risk population. After conducting research across various search engines, it has been determined that there is a notably high prevalence of undiagnosed diabetes mellitus among patients with acute coronary syndrome. This highlights the importance of implementing routine diabetes screening in this high-risk group. Detecting and managing diabetes early in ACS patients has the potential to enhance clinical outcomes and alleviate the burden of cardiovascular complications.
