Abstract:
Hyper glycemia and hypoglycemia are associated with poor outcome of critically ill patients.No consistent evidence shows that intensive insulin strategy improves health outcomes in hospitalized patients.Because of its potentially harmful and life-threatening consequences,hypoglycemia represents the main limit to the development of a tight blood glucose control strategy in critical illness.Hypoglycemia-related neurological signs may be masked.The occurrence of hypoglycemia in critical illness,especially severe hypoglycemia,is associated with a poor prognosis.So it is necessary to closely detect glycemic variability and control the blood glucose in proper level.
