Abstract:
Hyperglycemia is common in critically ill patients,even in patients without a history of diabetes mellitus.Stress plays an important role in the genesis of hyperglycemia.Many studies have demonstrated the association between hyperglycemia and adverse outcomes.Tight glycaemic control using intensive insulin therapy can reduce morbidity and mortality associated with critical illness.Application of the therapy shows a good prospect and is also facing some problems.
