Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Children aged 1 month to 12 years of adult parents with coma due to acute CNS infections

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients with metabolic coma like diabetes mellitus / diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), liver failure, hypertensive encephalopathy and Reyeâ??s syndrome. 2.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To study the association between glucose variability (hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia and fluctuation) and the proportion of patients who developed new onset organ dysfunction (based on PELOD score during PICU stayTimepoint: at 7 days

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To study the association between glucose variability and composite poor outcome at 90-days (mortality or severe neurodisability).Timepoint: At 3 months;To study the association between glucose variability and length of mechanical ventilation if ventilated and hospital stay including PICU stay.Timepoint: At hospital discharge.;To study the association between glucose variability and proportion of patients requiring organ support intervention (inotropic support, renal replacement therapy).Timepoint: at PICU discharge
