Analyzing the Composition of Diabetes Patients and Impact of Seasonal and Climate Trends on Emergency Room Utilization in Central Virginia

Diabetes is an epidemic both nationally and in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and there are gaps in understanding of what demographic groups are most impacted by diabetes and how these patients utilize the emergency room. It is also known that diabetes patients are more likely to experience dehydration at high temperatures, which could potentially lead to heat exhaustion or heat stroke. However, there is limited research on the effect of climate on the number or proportion of diabetes patients presenting to the emergency room. The main objective of this project will be to examine trends in emergency room utilization for patients with diabetes in Virginia, specifically targeting seasonal and climate trends, giving emphasis to exploring trends during heat and cold waves.
