Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Mean blood glucose

    Mean blood glucose over 24 hours

    duration of hospital stay (48 hours - maximum three weeks)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of glucose measurements in hyperglycaemic ranges

    duration of hospital stay (48 hours - maximum three weeks)

Study Arms (2)

Insulin titration protocol

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients in care at the Division of Endocrinology will be treated by enhanced version of published best paper based practice insulin titration protocol to control glycaemia in hospitalised patients with type 2 diabetes.

Drug: Insulin Aspart, Insulin Glargine

Standard care

NO INTERVENTION

Patients in care of the Division of Cardiology will be treated using antihyperglycaemic therapy according to standard care.

Interventions

The Intervention is a paper based protocol, which provides suggestions for new insulin doses (basal-bolus regime).
