Average Daily Risk Range as a Measure of Glycemic Risk Is Associated with Mortality in the Intensive Care Unit: A Retrospective Study in a Burn Intensive Care Unit

摘要

BackgroundAlthough tight glycemic control has been associated with improved outcomes in the intensive care unit (ICU), glycemic variability may be the influential factor in mortality. The main goal of the study was to relate blood glucose (BG) variability of burn ICU patients to outcomes using a sensitive measure of glycemic variability, the average daily risk range (ADRR).
