� Maintaining normoglycemia, independent of insulin levels, prevented
endothelial dysfunction, liver and kidney injury.
� Benefits of intensive insulin therapy required mainly maintenance of
normoglycemia
� Glycemia-independent actions of insulin exerted only minor, organ-
specific impact.

Continuous glucose monitoring at ICU
Summary
� Acute stress induced by criticall illnes causes complex metabolic and hormonal disorders
� Maintenance blood glucose in critically ill patients (both diabetic and non-diabetic)
improves survival and other outcomes
� Intrvenous infusion has an advantage over subcutaneous injections
� Trained staff and precise protocol for dose titration is necessary
� Insulin application is cost effective
� Novel (end expensive) continuous glucose monitoring devices are similarly effective as
standard methods
