Clinical Trial: Exploration of Continuous Glucose Monitoring on the Intensive Care Unit
Study Status: COMPLETED
Recruit Status: COMPLETED
Condition: Hypoglycemia, Hyperglycemia
Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL
Official Title: Comparison of Continuous Glucose Monitoring and Point-of-Care Measurements on the Intensive Care Unit: An Exploratory Study
Brief Summary:
Both hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia in patients at the intensive care unit (ICU) are strongly associated with increased morbidity and mortality.Accurate and timely measurements of glucose levels in this population are therefore crucial.Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) appears promising for this purpose, but it is not yet used in the ICU due to insufficient knowledge about its reliability in critically ill patients.The aim of this study is to investigate the discrepancy between CGM and point-of-care measurements…
