糖尿病の重症患者における長期作用インスリンと低血糖症との関連
PubMedで要約を見る
まとめ
この要約は機械生成です。2型糖尿病の重症患者は,手術用集中治療室 (SICU) で,スライディングスケールインスリン (SSI) に長効インスリン (LAI) を加えると低血糖症のリスクは増加しなかった. この併用療法では,SSI単独と比較して,安全性と血糖値のコントロールが類似した.
科学分野
- クリティカル ケア 医療
- 内分泌学
- 薬理学について
背景
- 重症患者の低血糖症は,罹病率と死亡率の上昇と関連しています.
- SICUの非糖尿病患者における長時間作用インスリン (LAI) の使用は低血糖症と関連しています.
- SICU内の糖尿病患者のLAIの安全性に関する証拠は限られている.
研究 の 目的
- 2型糖尿病 (T2DM) の重症患者の低血糖症の発生率を評価する.
- SICUでLAIとスライディングスケールインスリン (SSI) を投与した患者とSSIのみを投与した患者の結果を比較する.
主な方法
- 単一センターの遡及コホート研究です
- 少なくとも24時間SICUに入院したT2DM患者も含む.
- LAI+SSIとSSI単独で投与された患者の比較結果
主要な成果
- 低血糖症の発生率は,グループごとに似ていた (17. 5% LAI+SSI vs 18. 4% SSI; p=0. 86).
- 重度の低血糖症,高血糖症,または血糖変動の有意な違いは観察されなかった.
- LAI+SSIでは高血糖がより頻繁に発生したが,混同因子を調整したところではこの差異は有意ではなかった.
結論
- T2DMのSICU患者のSSIにLAIを追加することは,低血糖症のリスク増加と関連していません.
- LAI + SSIは,このコホートでSSI単独と比較して低血糖に対する安全性を示した.
- 糖尿病の重症患者の血糖制御のための最適なインスリンレジメントをさらに研究することが可能である.

Without prolonged fasting, healthy individuals maintain blood glucose levels above 3.5 mM due to a well-adapted neuroendocrine counterregulatory system that effectively prevents acute hypoglycemia, a potentially life-threatening condition. The primary clinical scenarios for hypoglycemia encompass diabetes treatment, inappropriate production of endogenous insulin or insulin-like substances by tumors, and the use of glucose-lowering agents in non-diabetic individuals. Notably, hypoglycemia in the...
Insulin-replacement therapy usually includes both long-acting insulin (basal) and short-acting insulin (to cater to postprandial needs). In a diverse group of type 1 diabetes patients, the average daily insulin dose is typically 0.5-0.7 units/kg body weight. However, obese patients and pubertal adolescents may need more due to insulin resistance.
The basal dose constitutes about 40%-50% of the total daily dose, with the rest as premeal insulin. The mealtime insulin dose should mirror...
Insulin preparations are categorized by their duration of action into short-acting and long-acting types. Two strategies are used to modify insulin's absorption and pharmacokinetic profile: slowing the absorption post-subcutaneous injection, or altering human insulin's amino acid sequence or protein structure. These changes retain the insulin's ability to bind to the insulin receptor, but alter its behavior in solution or after injection.
Short-acting insulins are divided into...
Repaglinide (Prandin) and Nateglinide (Starlix), known as glinides, are oral insulin secretagogues that stimulate insulin release from pancreatic β cells by closing the ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP channel). Repaglinide controls insulin release from pancreatic β cells by managing potassium efflux. It shares two binding sites with sulfonylureas and also has a unique site, indicating overlapping mechanisms of action. With a rapid onset and a 4-7 hour duration, it effectively...
Biguanides, particularly metformin (Glucophage), are insulin sensitizers that enhance glucose uptake, thereby reducing insulin resistance. Unlike sulfonylureas, metformin doesn't prompt insulin secretion, which helps to curb hypoglycemia risk. Metformin is beneficial in treating conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome due to its insulin-resistance reduction capability. The drug's primary action involves curtailing hepatic gluconeogenesis, a significant contributor to high blood...
SBAR is an effective communication tool used by healthcare professionals to communicate patient information accurately. SBAR stands for Situation, Background, Assessment, and Recommendation. For a better understanding, an example is given below.
