- Conditions
- Hyperglycemia
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT01136746
- Lead Sponsor
- Eli Lilly and Company
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the use of insulin glargine plus insulin lispro to human regular insulin for treatment of hyperglycemia in the hospital setting in patients without known prior history of diabetes.
- Detailed Description
This study involves a comparison of 2 methods for administering subcutaneous insulin therapy to non-critically ill adult patients with hyperglycemia and without known history of diabetes who are admitted to non-intensive care unit (ICU) general medical hospital services. Basal-bolus therapy, considered the gold standard for glucose control in patients with known diabetes, will be compared with sliding scale insulin, a commonly used method of glucose control (prevailing standard practice) in hospitalized patients. In this study, basal-bolus therapy will consist of once-daily glargine plus lispro 3 to 4 times daily adjusted to achieve pre-meal capillary plasma glucose \<140 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) and bedtime capillary plasma glucose \<180 mg/dL for patients who are eating \[predose plasma glucose \<140 mg/dL for patients with nil per os (NPO) orders\]; sliding scale insulin will be administered using human regular insulin 4 times daily as needed adjusted to achieve predose capillary plasma glucose target \<140 mg/dL in patients who are eating or have NPO orders.
