ABSTRACT
Objective: To compare the clinical course and outcome, length of hospital stay, and complications of
deep neck infection patients between diabetic and non-diabetic groups.
Methods: This study was a retrospective descriptive study to compare deep neck infections among
diabetic and non-diabetic patients from 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2019. The data were analyzed
by chi-square test and independent t-test.
Results: 236 patients with deep neck infection can be divided into 88 diabetic patients (37.2%) and 148
non-diabetic patients (62.8%). On average, Diabetic patients had age and body mass index more than
non-diabetic patients (p-value < 0.001), Diabetic patients had more than 14 days and 7 days of hospital
stay, respectively. (p-value < 0.001) and the most common site of infection for both groups was found
at the Submandibular space. Diabetic patients were infected more than 2 spaces. (p-value = 0.007). The
infections of both groups were caused by odontogenic infection. The most common pathogen in diabetic
patients was Klebsiella pneumoniae and Streptococcus viridans for non-diabetic patients. Diabetic patients
can be complications higher than non-diabetic patients.
Conclusion: Deep neck infection in Phetchabun hospital caused by odontogenic infection. The most
common site of infection was found at Submandibular space. Diabetic patients were infected more than
2 spaces, had more hospital stay and can be complications higher than non-diabetic patients..
