End points were mean and variance of blood glucose and frequency of hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, ICU stay, and mortality. Data were analyzed with repeated-measures ANOVA and Mann–Whitney U test.Results: Average daily glucose level was significantly less in the glargine group than controls (P< 0.0001), while there was no difference in daily variance in blood glucose between the two groups. The duration of glucose concentrations being within the target range was identical between the glargine and control groups (16.6± 4.9 vs 16.4± 4.6 hours/day, P=0.844) during the 7 days of admission. The frequency of hypoglycemia was greater in the glargine group and total duration of hyperglycemia (> 180 mg/dL) much longer among controls (P< 0.001). Similar mortality rates were observed in both groups, while ICU length of stay was 2 days shorter in the glargine group.Conclusion: Addition of insulin glargine to routine protocols more effectively reduces glucose levels and decreases incidence of hyperglycemic episodes and regular insulin usage. This adjustment may be associated with decreases in duration of ICU stay or increases in hypoglycemic events.Keywords: critically ill patients, dysglycemia, hyperglycemia, insulin glargineNader NDHamishehkar HNaghizadeh AShadvar KIranpour ASanaie SChang FMahmoodpoor ADove Medical Pressarticlecritically ill patientsdysglycemiahyperglycemiainsulin glargineSpecialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 13, Pp 671-678 (2020) |
