Popis: | There has been concern regarding the susceptibility of patients on continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) to hypoglycemic episodes. This study has examined glycemic control, the frequency of hypoglycemic reactions and the counterregulatory response to an IV insulin infusion of 2.4 units per hour in five brittle insulin-dependent diabetics before and during CSII. CSll was associated with a significant reduction in glycosylated hemoglobin, standard deviation of blood glucose estimations and daily insulin dosage. The frequency of symptomatic hypoglycemic reactions was reduced (mean 14/4 weeks pre CSII, 5/4 weeks post CSII, p |
