NCT01855243

Brief Summary

Purpose: To compare efficacy and safety of traditional sliding scale insulin (SSI) versus modified 70/30 insulin versus modified basal plus supplemental scale /bolus insulin regimens for glycemic control in hospitalized diabetic patients with diabetes. Methods: In a prospective trial, patients with diabetes will be randomized to receive either traditional hospital SSI , or twice daily 70/30 insulin plus supplemental lunchtime insulin for BG ≥ 150 mg/dL or once every night glargine plus three times prandial glulisine for BG ≥ 150 mg/dL . 70/30 insulin and glargine will be started respectively at 0.4 and 0.2 U/kg/day for BG ≤ 200 mg/dL or 0.5 and 0.3 U/kg/day for BG above 200 mg/dL.

Study Arms (3)

glargine plus supplemental glulisine

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients who will be recruited to be treated with glargine/glulisine, will received 50% of TDD as detailed demonstrated in Umpierrez et al., studies . as This includes administration of glargine (Lantus®) once every night plus glulisine (Apidra®) before each meal for BG ≥ 150 mg/dL. Glargine dose will be calculated as 0.2 U/kg/day for admission BG less than 200 mg/dL or 0.3 U/kg/day for BG exceeding 200 mg/dL. Glargine was given using Solostar Flex-Pen® once daily in the evening around 8:00 pm. Glulisine was given using the Solostar Flex-Pen® three times just before the meals for BG \> 150 mg/dL according to hospital sliding scale. To avoid hypoglycemia, if for any reason, a subject missed a meal, the dose of glulisine will be held.

Drug: GlargineDrug: glulisine

70/30 insulin plus supplemental lunch insulin

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Modified split-mixed insulin protocol adopted by Umpierrez et al., will be applied to patients treated with 70/30 insulin. Insulin dose will be started at 0.4 U/kg/day for admission BG less than 200 mg/dL or 0.5 U/kg/day for BG above 200 mg/dL. Two thirds of total daily dose (TDD)will be given before breakfast and 1/3 of TDD before dinner. Supplemental lunchtime regular insulin dose will given for BG \> 150 mg/dL . Patients previously treated with 70/30 insulin before admission initially will receivethe same regimen as at in home.

Drug: regular insulinDrug: 70/30 insulin

Sliding Scale insulin (SSI)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

For SSI group, regular insulin will be administered three times daily subcutaneously approximately 30 min before meal for BG \> 150 mg/dL (or every 8 hours if a patient was not eating) according to hospital sliding scale table

Drug: regular insulin
