Comparison of 2 Hyperglycemia-correction Scales in Hospitalized Patients

Summary

Hyperglycemia in the hospital is associated with multiple adverse outcomes. Previously, the mobile insulin scheme was used for its control. However, in the last decade, several studies have shown that the insulin basal-bolus (basal plus) regimen is associated with better glycemic control and a lower risk of hypoglycemia.
