Diabetes mellitus; Hyperglycemia

Diabetes mellitus; Hyperglycemia - Acute

Definition  

Individualized management of patients with known diabetes, and patients with hyperglycemia not known to have diabetes, to meet glycemic goals while preventing hypoglycemia


 


 

Monitoring of glycemic status in hospitalized patients with known diabetes or hospitalized patients receiving therapy associated with a high risk of hyperglycemia  

* Glucose measurement, blood: For noncritically ill patients, random glucose levels <180 mg/dL to 200 mg/dL and fasting glucose levels <126 mg/dL are reasonable. For critically ill surgical patients, blood glucose levels <140 mg/dL (ideally as close as possible to 110 mg/dL) are recommended and critically ill nonsurgical patients should maintain a blood glucose measurement <140 mg/dL .


 

Evaluation of glycemic status in patients with known diabetes upon admission to the hospital  

* Hemoglobin A1c measurement


 

Medical History  

* Past medical history of Heart disease

* Poor glycemic control

* Hypertension

Treatment  


 

Drug Therapy  


 

Subcutaneous insulin for noncritically ill hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus  


 

INSULIN  

Adults (using insulin at home): Continue the subcutaneous regimen used at home; adjust as needed based on glucose levels

Adults (not using insulin previously): Usual daily requirement is 0.4 to 1 unit/kg/day subcutaneously; adjust as needed based on glucose levels


 

Subcutaneous insulin for noncritically ill hospitalized patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus  


 

INSULIN  

Adults (who are eating): Continue the same subcutaneous basal insulin regimen used at home; adjust subcutaneous prandial insulin as needed based on patient situation and glucose levels

Adults (newly diagnosed diabetes): Usual daily requirement is 0.5 to 0.7 units/kg/day subcutaneously; administer half of the daily dose as basal insulin and the other half as prandial insulin and adjust as needed based on glucose levels


 

Premeal supplemental subcutaneous insulin in noncritically ill hospitalized patients  


 

INSULIN  

Adults (requiring ?40 units of insulin/day): Premeal blood glucose (PBG) 150 to 199 mg/dL, 1 unit of additional insulin subcutaneously; PBG 200 to 249 mg/dL, 2 units of additional insulin subcutaneously; PBG 250 to 299 mg/dL, 3 units of additional insulin subcutaneously; PBG 300 to 349 mg/dL, 4 units of additional insulin subcutaneously; PBG >349 mg/dL, 5 units of additional insulin subcutaneously

Adults (requiring 40 to 80 units of insulin/day): PBG 150 to 199 mg/dL, 1 unit of additional insulin subcutaneously; PBG 200 to 249 mg/dL, 3 units of additional insulin subcutaneously; PBG 250 to 299 mg/dL, 5 units of additional insulin subcutaneously; PBG 300 to 349 mg/dL, 7 units of additional insulin subcutaneously; PBG >349 mg/dL, 8 units of additional insulin subcutaneously

Adults (requiring >80 units of insulin/day): PBG 150 to 199 mg/dL, 2 units of additional insulin subcutaneously; PBG 200 to 249 mg/dL, 4 units of additional insulin subcutaneously; PBG 250 to 299 mg/dL, 7 units of additional insulin subcutaneously; PBG 300 to 349 mg/dL, 10 units of additional insulin subcutaneously; PBG >349 mg/dL, 12 units of additional insulin subcutaneously


 


 

Blood glucose level less than 60 mg/dL in noncritically ill hospitalized patients on subcutaneous insulin  


 

DEXTROSE  

Adults (who can tolerate oral intake): Give 15 g of fast-acting carbohydrate (4 ounces of fruit juice or non-diet soda, 8 ounces of nonfat milk, or 3 to 4 glucose tablets); test blood glucose (BG) every 15 minutes, repeat fast-acting carbohydrate if BG <80 mg/dL

Adults (who cannot tolerate oral intake): Give 25 mL of dextrose 50% solution IV push; test BG every 15 minutes, repeat dextrose administration if BG <80 mg/dL


 


 

Intravenous insulin infusion for critically ill hospitalized patients  


 

INSULIN  

Adults: Initiate IV insulin infusion according to the appropriate algorithm when blood glucose (BG) ?70 mg/dL or BG >120 mg/dL in surgical patients who have taken an oral hypoglycemic within 24 hours. Standard drip concentration is 100 units/100 mL 0.9% NaCl for administration with infusion device .

Adult algorithm changes: Algorithm failure is defined as BG outside the goal range (usually 80 to 180 mg/dL), and BG does not change by at least 60 mg/dL within 1 hour. Movement to a lower algorithm is indicated for 2 consecutive BG levels <70 mg/dL. Monitor capillary BG every 1 hour until within goal range for 4 hours, then every 2 hours for 4 hours, then every 4 hours if stable .

Adults algorithm 1 (initial infusion for most patients): BG 70 to 109 mg/dL, 0.2 unit/hr; BG 110 to 119 mg/dL, 0.5 unit/hr; BG 120 to 149 mg/dL, 1 unit/hr; BG 150 to 179 mg/dL, 1.5 units/hr; BG 180 to 209 mg/dL, 2 units/hr; BG 210 to 239 mg/dL, 2 units/hr; BG 240 to 269 mg/dL, 3 units/hr; BG 270 to 299 mg/dL, 3 units/hr; BG 300 to 329 mg/dL, 4 units/hr; BG 330 to 359 mg/dL, 4 units/hr; BG >360 mg/dL, 6 units/hr

Adults algorithm 2 (failure of algorithm 1, or initial infusion for patients receiving corticosteroids, requiring more than 80 units/day as an outpatient, or status post coronary artery bypass graft, solid organ transplant, or islet cell transplant): BG 70 to 109 mg/dL, 0.5 unit/hr; BG 110 to 119 mg/dL, 1 unit/hr; BG 120 to149 mg/dL, 1.5 units/hr; BG 150 to 179 mg/dL, 2 units/hr; BG 180 to 209 mg/dL, 3 units/hr; BG 210 to 239 mg/dL, 4 units/hr; BG 240 to 269 mg/dL, 5 units/hr; BG 270 to 299 mg/dL, 6 units/hr; BG 300 to 329 mg/dL, 7 units/hr; BG 330 to 359 mg/dL, 8 units/hr; BG >360 mg/dL, 12 units/hr

  1. I''m Charlotte Johnson,65  years old, Here in Edmonton, Canada. With the new herbal mix medicine I purchased from Dr James herbal mix medicine West Africa  was my only way to get rid of my Alzheimer's, the herbal  mix medicine effectively reversed my condition and alleviate all symptoms.  I was initially very hesitant to discuss my Alzheimer but I just hope it can still help someone. I feel this will be very important information for all Alzheimer patients, because the most violent element in society today is ignorance. Be it any condition, a healthy diet and natural herbs and roots medicine from Dr. James is the road to fast recovery. I had suffered Alzheimer for many years, I fought for proper medical recommendation, care  and all form of humane treatment with little improvement I went through many sleepless nights and periods of intense grief, as do most families. I was recommended by a friend to use Dr. James herbal mix medicine for my Alzheimer with high hope and assurance. I never doubted my friend but to contact Dr. James. And purchased His herbal mix medicine which was effective and I finally feel my Alzheimer is gone with no more symptoms. He also told me that he cures diseases such as  Lungs diseases, kidney diseases, Warts, Bipolar disorder, Shingles,  HPV, ALS, CANCER, NEPHROTIC SYNDROME, HIV / AIDS, Herpes virus, Ovarian Cancer, Pancreatic cancers, bladder cancer, prostate cancer, Glaucoma., Cataracts, Macular degeneration, Cardiovascular disease, Autism. Enlarged prostate, Osteoporosis. Alzheimer's disease, psoriasis, Tach Diseases, Lupus, Backache, dementia, skin cancer,.testicular Cancer, Leukemia, HEPATITIS A, B, C, Contact  the great one on his email    greatcureman@gmail.com
