Brief Summary:
Aim To determine whether the maintenance of normoglycemia decreases the incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia VAP reduces its treatment period and the length of stay in the intensive care unit
Methods Prospective randomized controlled trial We enrolled 117 mechanically ventilated trauma 71 and abdominal 46 surgical patients older than 18 of both sex In 57 patients strict glucose control group we aimed to maintain the blood glucose level between 44 and 6 1 mmolL while in 60 patients standard glucose control group it was maintained between 78 and 100 mmolL with the use of continues insulin infusion Insulin dose adjustments were based on measurements of glucose in capillary blood sample
Key words surgical patients mechanical ventilation pneumonia blood glucose insulin infusion hospital stay
