Course Description
This American College of Physicians (ACP) guideline addresses the effectiveness of intensive insulin therapy (IIT) in improving outcomes in hospitalized patients with or without diabetes mellitus. The ACP recommends not using IIT to strictly control or to normalize blood glucose in hospitalized patients. If insulin therapy is used in intensive care unit settings, the ACP recommends a target blood glucose level of 7.8 to 11.1 mmol/L (140 to 200 mg/dL).
