Description

  Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common diseases in the developed world. The relationship between hyperglycemia and outcomes was altered by the presence of diabetes. Biological adjustment to chronic hyperglycemia might explain this phenomenon. In patients with diabetes admitted to ICU, there was a significant interaction between pre-existing hyperglycemia and association between acute glucose control and mortality. These observations generate the hypothesis that glucose levels considered safe and desirable in other patients might be undesirable in patients with chronic hyperglycemia. Until high level evidence is available, a slightly higher target (150-200 mg/dL) might be recommended in patients with poor chronic glucose control.
