Official title
Validation of Insulin Protocol for Prevention and Management of Hyperglycemia in Oncology Patients With Diabetes Receiving High Dose Glucocorticoid Therapy
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
There are no guidelines for the management of glucocorticoid- (henceforth steroid) induced elevated blood sugars (henceforth hyperglycemia). Oncology ward patients have particularly high rates of hyperglycemia and are frequently exposed to high dose steroid therapy. A prior study by Muthala et al. (unpublished data) found a relationship between insulin requirements needed to maintain normal blood sugars, patient weight, and mg of steroid administered. In this pilot study, through an endocrine consult team, a weight-based, steroid dose-based insulin protocol will be implemented for the management of hyperglycemia in lymphoma patients requiring high dose steroid therapy, with the goal of reducing hyperglycemia incidence.
