Strict Glycemic Control by Insulin Infusion:Observations on Emergency Department Initiation
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Insulin for Hyperglycemia. Completed, enrolled 27 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Glycemic control can be safely achieved in surgical and medical intensive care unit settings and has been shown to improve short and long-term clinical outcomes. As such, insulin infusion protocols are routinely used in the ICU setting. The investigators plan to establish the use of strict glycemic control in a heterogenous group of acutely ill patients in the ED setting. The investigators propose to study the aspects of implementing a strict glycemic control protocol in the ED.
