Background and aims: Insulin therapy and the use of clinical decision support systems to achieve glycaemic control in hospitalized patients with hyperglycaemia are recommended by clinical guidelines. The aim of this evaluation was to assess time in target by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) achieved by a basal-bolus insulin algorithm using insulin glargine U300 during hospital stay in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).Material and methods: 30 patien...

Current guidelines recommend pre-meal blood glucose (BG) levels of <140 mg/dl in the hospital. The aim of this analysis was to compare two versions of a workflow-integrated algorithm for basal-bolus insulin therapy (REACTION algorithm) for glycemic management in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2D) hospitalized at the general ward.For both algorithms BG measurements were performed four times daily (pre-breakfast, pre-lunch, pre-dinner, and at...
