Completed
Conditions
Hyperglycemia

Registration Number
NCT03904199

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the outcomes between hospitalized cancer patients with high blood sugar receiving the current standard of care of administering insulin, and hospitalized cancer patients receiving a new, individualized method of insulin administration.

GroupInterventionDescription
Basal-Prandial-Correctional Insulin RegimenInsulinParticipants hospitalized in the medical, hematologic, or bone marrow transplant units will begin with basal long-acting insulin glargine with correctional and prandial rapid-acting insulin that is personalized and precise, to achieve target blood glucose levels with daily assessments during hospitalization. Adjustments will be made in real time to reach the target range.
Standard of Care Insulin RegimenInsulinParticipants hospitalized in the medical, hematologic, or bone marrow transplant units' blood sugar levels will be managed with sliding scale insulin or a combination of long- and short-acting insulin as per standard of care.
