Abstract:
Objective To explore the appropriate target ranges of blood glucose in intensive insulin therapy (ⅡT) for acute hyperglycemia following traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods A randomized,open-label and controlled clinical trial was performed on 208 patients,admitted to our hospitals from Junuary 2014 to Sepember 2016.They were divided into ⅡT group (n=156),who were subdivided into slight (10.1-13.0 mmol/L),moderate (7.1-10.0 mmol/L),and strict (4.4-7.0 mmol/L) control blood glucose groups (n=52),and non-ⅡT group (n=52).Survival analysis 6 months after treatment was performed by Kaplan-Meier method.Modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores and Barthel index (BI),Glasgow Outcome scale (GOS) scores,concentrations of lactic acid in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and glycosylated hemoglobin,Glasgow coma scale (GCS) scores,Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE Ⅱ) scores,Length of staying in intensive care unit (ICU) and incidence of adverse events were compared between the patients from different groups at different treatment times.Results Blood glucose level within 7 d of admission in patients ofⅡT group was in target ranges.The survival rate of patients from slight and moderate control blood glucose groups was significantly higher than that in the non-ⅡT group and strict control blood glucose group 6 months after treatment (x2=4.237,P=0.040;x2=5.621,P=0.018).As compared with those in the non-ⅡT group and strict control blood glucose group,the mRS scores 3 months after treatment were significantly decreased,and GOS scores and BI one,3 and 6 months after treatment were significantly increased in patients from slight and moderate control blood glucose groups (P＜0.05).As compared with that in the non-ⅡT group,and slight and moderate control blood glucose groups,the glycosylated hemoglobin level 7 d after treatment was significantly decreased in strict control blood glucose group (P＜0.05).As compared with those in the non-ⅡT group and strict control blood glucose group,the concentration of lactic acid in CSF 7 d after treatment,APACHE Ⅱ scores 7 and 14 d after treatment,length of staying in ICU and incidence of adverse events were significantly decreased in patients from slight and moderate control blood glucose groups (P＜0.05).The mean value of blood glucose in slight and moderate control blood glucose groups was (8.40±0.39) mmol/L.Conclusion Proper ⅡT improves the outcomes of TBI patients and (8.40±0.39) mmol/L are established as the target ranges in ⅡT for TBI.
