Background : In the hospital, we use insulin sliding scales for glycemic control when diabetic patients are admitted. This study compares glycemic control with routinely used regular or lispro insulin sliding scales.
Methods : This study investigated 131 type 2 diabetic patients who were admitted between January 2012 and January 2013 (regular insulin group, 69; lispro insulin group, 62). In this study, we used a t-test to compare the average fasting serum blood glucose values on admission and at discharge in these two groups.
Results : The following variables were compared between the regular and lispro insulin groups: mean age (69.42±6.98 vs. 66.56±9.07 years, respectively), body mass index (24.40±3.82 vs. 25.11±3.62 kg/m2), duration of diabetes mellitus (9.91±5.59 vs. 11.70±5.71 years), admission duration (12.22±7.76 vs. 14.21±8.03 days), total dose of insulin (17.77±17.32 vs. 24.39±24.84 units), daily average dose of insulin (1.85±1.82 vs. 1.85±1.61 units), average glucose on admission (190.74±97.28 vs. 209.54±48.01 mg/dL), and average glucose at discharge (179.35±69.15 vs. 197.44±40.16 mg/dL). There were no significant differences in the decreases in average glucose between the two groups (11.39±32.01 vs. 12.10±15.45 mg/dL; P=0.873).
Conclusion : No significant difference in glycemic control was found in hospitalized type 2 diabetic patients who received either regular or lispro insulin sliding scales.
