Towards closed-loop glycaemic control
Best Practice & Research - Clinical Anaesthesiology, 06/04/09
Herpe TV et al. - Blood glucose control performed by intensive care unit (ICU) nurses is becoming standard practice for critically ill patients. Performance comparisons between different algorithms are avoided as blood glucose sampling frequencies and protocol durations were not similar among different studies and even within studies. It is surprising to consider in some of the described protocols that the original blood glucose target ranges (80–110 mg/dl) were increased (due to fear of hypoglycaemia) and/or that glycaemia levels were determined in capillary blood samples.
