A new bedside tool provides real-time insulin therapy guidance for intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Developed with clinicians, this glucose control system improved usability and workflow in five adult ICUs.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Clinical Informatics
  • Critical Care Medicine

Background:

  • Managing blood glucose levels in intensive care unit (ICU) patients is critical for patient outcomes.
  • Existing insulin therapy protocols can be complex and challenging to implement at the bedside.
  • A need exists for intuitive, real-time decision support tools to optimize glycemic control in critically ill patients.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and implement a real-time, bedside decision support tool for insulin therapy in the ICU.
  • To create a user-friendly interface for managing the hospital's glucose control protocol.
  • To improve the efficiency and effectiveness of insulin delivery for ICU patients.

Main Methods:

  • A multidisciplinary team of clinicians, analysts, and software engineers collaborated on the tool's development.

  • Iterative design processes involving end-users (clinicians) were employed early in development.
  • The tool was designed to integrate seamlessly into the nursing workflow.

    • Main Results:

    • A user-friendly, real-time decision support tool for insulin therapy was successfully developed.
    • The tool facilitated efficient nursing workflow for glucose management.
    • The system was successfully implemented across all five adult ICUs at LDS Hospital.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed bedside decision support tool effectively provides insulin therapy instructions for ICU patients.
    • Early and continuous involvement of clinical end-users was key to the tool's successful design and implementation.
    • The tool's successful integration into multiple ICUs demonstrates its potential to improve glycemic management in critical care settings.
