Summary

A randomized trial to compare three insulin-titration protocols for tight glycemic control in surgical ICU: an absolute glucose (Matias) protocol, a relative glucose change (Bath) protocol, and an enhanced model predictive control algorithm (eMPC)

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

insulin

Insulin was was administered according to each protocol rules/suggestions into a central venous line as a continuous infusion (Bath and eMPC protocols) or as a combination of a continuous infusion and boluses (Matias protocol). A standard concentration of 50 IU of insulin in 50 ml of 0.9% NaCl was used. In all patients, infusion of 10% glucose solution was initiated upon admission to ICU with glucose dose of 2.5 g/kg of ideal body weight (height in centimetres minus 100) per hour and lasted for 18 hours, when normal oral food intake was started. In ventilated patients, the glucose infusion lasted for 48 hours, and then standard enteral nutrition was initiated.
