Introduction: According to the American Diabetes Association and American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists' consensus on inpatient hyper glycemia, any blood glucose level higher than 7.8 mmol/l (140 mg/dl) without symptoms of preceding diabetes is considered stress hyper glycemia or hospital-related hyper glycemia. Methodology all patient admitted with acute onset of ST elevation myocardial infarction within 12 hours of onset, age more than 18 and less than 80 years at tertiary care hospital were included in this study. Result In case group mean age was 55.4 years while in control group mean age 57.5 years was In case group mean Hba1c 5.6 and SD 1.0 was while in control group mean Hba1c 5.3 and SD was 1.1 with p value 0.234. Conclusion Mortality was commonly noted in the stress hyperglycemic groups. 5(25%) deaths were noted in group, while in euglycemic group 4 (11.4%) death were noted in group.
