Abstract :
[en] Effective tight glycemic control (TGC) can improve outcomes in intensive care unit (ICU) <br />patients, but is difficult to achieve consistently. Glycemic level and variability, particularly early in a <br />patient’s stay, are a function of variability in insulin sensitivity/resistance resulting from the level and <br />evolution of stress response, and are independently associated with mortality. This study examines the <br />daily evolution of variability of insulin sensitivity in ICU patients using patient data (N = 394 patients, <br />54019 hours) from the SPRINT TGC study. Model-based insulin sensitivity (SI) was identified each hour <br />and hour-to-hour percent changes in SI were assessed for Days 1-3 individually and Day 4 Onward, as <br />well as over all days. Cumulative distribution functions (CDFs), median values, and inter-quartile points <br />(25th and 75th percentiles) are used to assess differences between groups and their evolution over time. <br />Compared to the overall (all days) distributions, ICU patients are more variable on Days 1 and 2 (p < <br />0.0001), and less variable on Days 4 Onward (p < 0.0001). Day 3 is similar to the overall cohort (p = 0.74). <br />Absolute values of SI start lower and rise for Days 1 and 2, compared to the overall cohort (all days), (p < <br />0.0001), are similar on Day 3 (p = .72) and are higher on Days 4 Onward (p < 0.0001). ICU patients have <br />lower insulin sensitivity (greater insulin resistance) and it is more variable on Days 1 and 2, compared to <br />an overall cohort on all days. This is the first such model-based analysis of its kind. Greater variability <br />with lower SI early in a patient’s stay greatly increases the difficulty in achieving and safely maintaining <br />glycemic control, reducing potential positive outcomes. Clinically, the results imply that TGC patients will <br />require greater measurement frequency, reduced reliance on insulin, and more explicit specification of <br />carbohydrate nutrition in Days 1-3 to safely minimise glycemic variability for best outcome.
