NCT06810596

Brief Summary

The goal of clinical trial is to improve the adequacy of blood sugar control in diabetic critically ill adult patients who admitted to the intensive care unit(ICU) in Suez Canal University (SCU) hospitals by comparing glycemic control efficacy between the NHS in the UK and suggested SCU Protocols of Intravenous Insulin Infusion. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is SCU protocol of Intravenous Insulin Infusion more effective than NHS protocol in achieving blood glucose control targets in critically ill adult patients? Researchers will compare glycemic control efficacy between the NHS in UK and suggested SCU Protocols of Intravenous Insulin Infusion for critically ill Adults in ICU to determine the best protocol in achieving good blood glucose control in diabetic critically ill adult patients in SCU Hospitals.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time needed to achieve the target blood glucose (80-180)

    Assess the time needed to achieve the target blood glucose (80-180) in both protocols of intravenous insulin infusion in management of hyperglycemia in diabetic critically ill patients.

    up to 28 days

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Assess the effect of different factors in the management of hyperglycemia in critical ill patients.

    up to 28 days

  • Assess the incidence of hypoglycemia among the patients of both groups.

    up to 28 days

  • Compare Ventilator Free Days between two groups.

    up to 28 days

  • Compare the ICU stay and hospital stay between the two groups.

    up to 28 days

  • Compare ICU and 30 days Mortality rates between the two groups.

    30 days

Study Arms (2)

Suez Canal University variable rate Protocol

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Variable rate intravenous insulin infusion will be administrated according to random blood glucose and adjusted body weight (ABW). ABW = IBW + 0.33x (actual body weight - IBW) If the RBS level is 80 - 200 mg/dl, the Insulin infusion rate = RBS/ 100, and for insulin-sensitive patients = RBS/150 If the RBS level is 201 - 250 mg/dl, the Insulin infusion rate = RBS/ 80, and for insulin-sensitive patients = RBS/80 If the RBS level is 251 - 300 mg/dl, the Insulin infusion rate = RBS/ 60, and for insulin-sensitive patients = RBS/60 If the RBS level \> 300 mg/dl, the Insulin infusion rate = 0.1 ml /kg/h adjusted body weight (Max: 10 unit/h)

Procedure: Insulin infusion protocol

NHS group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

If the RBS level is 72- 144 mg/dl, the Insulin infusion rate = 1 ml/hr, for insulin-sensitive patients 0.5 ml/hr, and for Insulin resistance patients = 2 ml/hr If the RBS level is 145- 216mg/dl, the Insulin infusion rate = 2 ml/hr, for insulin-sensitive patients 1 ml/hr, and for Insulin resistance patients = 4 ml/hr If the RBS level is 217- 288 mg/dl, the Insulin infusion rate = 4 ml/hr, for insulin-sensitive patients 2 ml/hr, and for Insulin resistance patients = 6 ml/hr If the RBS level is 289- 360 mg/dl, the Insulin infusion rate = 5 ml/hr, for insulin-sensitive patients 3 ml/hr, and for Insulin resistance patients = 7 ml/hr If the RBS level is 361- 432 mg/dl, the Insulin infusion rate = 6 ml/hr, for insulin-sensitive patients 4 ml/hr, and for Insulin resistance patients = 8 ml/hr If the RBS level is \>433 mg/dl, the Insulin infusion rate = 8 ml/hr, for insulin-sensitive patients 6 ml/hr, and for Insulin resistance patients = 10 ml/hr

Procedure: Insulin infusion protocol
