•Summary
Impact of Hyperglycemia
and Diabetes and the Hospital
• Hyperglycemia affects the body’s ability to heal, resulting in increased lengths of stay and leading to complications
• Mortality risk increases dramatically when diabetes is not diagnosed and not effectively treated during a hospital stay
• Diabetes causes a 2-4 fold increase in rates of hospitalizations and increases lengths of stay by 1-3 days.
Factors Affecting Blood Glucose
Levels in the Hospital Setting
• Increased counter-regulatory hormones
• Changing IV glucose rates
• TPN and enteral feedings
• Lack of physical activity
• Unusual timing of insulin injections
• Use of glucocorticoids
• Unpredictable or inconsistent food intake
• Fear of hypoglycemia
• Cultural acceptance of hyperglycemia.
Important counter-regulatory hormones and mediators of
inflammation known to be associated with acute hyperglycemia
Glucoregulatory Hormone Metabolic Effect
Cortisol ↑ Skeletal muscle IR, ↑ lipolysis ↑gluconeogenesis
Epinephrine ↑ Skeletal muscle IR, ↑ gluconeogenesis and
glycogenolysis, ↑ Lipolysis, ↓ insulin secretion from βcell
Norepinephrine ↑ Gluconeogenesis (at high levels), ↑ lipolysis
Glucagon ↑ Gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis
Growth hormone ↑ Skeletal muscle IR, ↑ gluconeogenesis, ↑ lipolysis
Inflammation Mediators Metabolic Effect
TNF-a ↑ Skeletal and hepatic IR
IL-1 ↑ Skeletal and hepatic IR
IL-6 ↑ Skeletal and hepatic IR
IL-18 ↑ Skeletal and hepatic IR
FFAs ↑ Skeletal and hepatic IR, ↑ gluconeogenesis

Inpatient Glycemic Management
• Definition of terms:
• Hospital hyperglycemia: Any BG > 140 mg/dl (7.8 mmol/L)
• Stress hyperglycemia: Elevations in blood glucose levels that occur in patients with no prior history of diabetes and A1c levels that are not significantly elevated (<6.5%)
– A1c values above 6.5 in patients with hyperglycemia suggests a prior history of diabetes
• Hypoglycemia: Any BG < 70 mg/dl (3.9 mmol/L)
• Severe hypoglycemia: Any BG < 40 mg/dl (2.2 mmol/L)
Stress Hyperglycemia Associated with
Increased Morbidity/Mortality
• Acute MI
• Acute stroke
• Medical and surgical admits to an
inner city hospital
• CABG patients
Recommended Inpatient
Glycemic Targets
• Maintain fasting and preprandial BG <140 mg/dL(7.8 mmol/L)
• Modify therapy for BG < 100 mg/dl to avoid risk for hypoglycemia
• Maintain random BG <180 mg/dL (10 mmol/L)
• More stringent targets may be appropriate in stable patients with previous tight glycemic control.
• Less stringent targets may be appropriate in terminally ill patients or in patients with severe co-morbidities.

2013 American Diabetes Association recommendations
for diabetes care in the hospital
• For patients who have diabetes and are admitted to the hospital,diabetes should be clearly identified in the medical record.
• All patients with diabetes should have an order for blood glucose monitoring.
• Goals for blood glucose levels:– Critically ill patients: Blood glucose levels should be kept as close as
possible to 6.1 mmol/L (110 mg/dL) and generally <7.8 mmol/L (140 mg/dL) through use of a safe and effective intravenous insulin protocol.
– Noncritically ill patients: Fasting blood glucose levels should be <7.0 mmol/L (126 mg/dL), and random glucose levels should be <10.0 to11.1 mmol/L (180–200 mg/dL).
• Use of scheduled prandial and basal insulin is recommended.
• Prandial doses should be appropriately timed in relation to meals and should be adjusted according to point-of-care glucose levels.
2013 American Diabetes Association recommendations
for diabetes care in the hospital
• Supplementary insulin may be used in addition to scheduled insulin to correct premeal hyperglycemia.
• Glucose monitoring with orders for correction insulin should be initiated for patients who are not known to be diabetic but receive therapy associated with a high risk for hyperglycemia.
• A plan for treating hypoglycemia should be established for each patient.
• Episodes of hypoglycemia should be tracked.
• All patients with diabetes who are admitted to the hospital should have their glycosylated hemoglobin level determined
• if the results of testing in the previous 2 to 3 months are not available.
• A diabetes education plan should be developed for each patient.
• Patients who have hyperglycemia in the hospital but do not have a diagnosis of diabetes should undergo appropriate follow-up testing.
• Extra rapid acting insulin for premeal
hyperglycemia
• Lispro and aspart ideal:• rapid onset of action controls hyperglycemia
• rapid offset makes later hypoglycemia less likely
• NO doses less than 4 hours apart to avoid
“STACKING” and hypoglycemia
• Bedtime supplemental insulin: selected
patients

Pitfalls with Insulin Drips
• Turning off dextrose while insulin still running
hypoglycemia
• Failing to notice when blood glucose is falling
too fast
• Stopping an insulin drip without having given
subQ insulin – this causes patients to develop
(or RE-develop DKA)
Transition to SubQ Insulin
• When able to eat
• Best time to stop is when a dose of basal insulin would usually be given – AFTER the dose has been given
• Strategies for glargine (typically dosed at bedtime)
– Continue IVF and drip at “basal” rate and give prandial insulin SQ
– give 1/2 usual glargine dose as NPH in the morning before stopping the drip
What if I can’t use an insulin drip?
• BASAL insulin - 2/3 of NPH dose or glargine dose (use 100% of glargine dose ONLY if type 1 AND no fasting hypoglycemia)
• AT UWMC/HMC -use RAPID acting insulin to correct hyperglycemia if CBG > 180-200
• No rapid acting doses < 4 hours apart!!
• Adjust basal insulin dose if extra insulin required
住院病人住院病人住院病人住院病人(non-critical ill patients)高血糖之治療高血糖之治療高血糖之治療高血糖之治療住院高血糖定義: 住院時血糖超過140mg/dl
血糖機做血糖監測(註1),所有病患需測HbA1C一次。
註1. 監測血糖點:1正常三餐飲食:測三餐餐前及睡前血糖共4次。2NPO患者:每六小時測一次血糖值。註2. NPO患者僅用基礎(Basal)胰島素註3.住院血糖管控目標:Non-critical ill patients: pre-meal BG <7.8mmol/L (140 mg/dl)、random BG <10mmol/L (180 mg/dl)
1停用所有口服降血糖藥2使用皮下胰島素Basal-bonus(基礎加三餐餐前)(註2)。
步驟四:每日依血糖值調整胰島素劑量至達到管控目標(註3)
當血糖值<100mg/dl注意胰島素是否過量或有低血糖發生
當血糖值<70mg/dl需立刻減少胰島素劑量
出院準備•確認出院藥物,搭配血糖監測無發生低血糖狀況,方可準備出院。(讓病人在住院時,使用出院會帶回的藥,先確認這個藥品及劑量是適合)
•務必開立糖尿病衛教會診單,對病患及家屬做衛教。•鼓勵自我患者血糖監測並定期回診。

步驟二:50%的總劑量為基礎胰島素,使用Detemir或Lantus在睡前注射
步驟三:50%的總劑量平均分配在三餐餐前,使用Novorapid
Summary
• Hyperglycemia will induce systemic noxious reactions which cause series vicious cycles.
• The role of controlling blood sugar became the 6th vital signs.
• Indication of insulin therapies and strategies are basic clinical skills for any kind of doctors as the maintain the vital survives.
• ADA revised the commendations about inpatient glycemia control annually which emphasized the important roles.
