A prospective randomised multi-centre controlled trial on tight glucose control by intensive insulin therapy in adult intensive care units: the Glucontrol study

Abstract: In this prematurely stopped and therefore underpowered study, there was a lack of clinical benefit of intensive insulin therapy (target 4.4-6.1 mmol/L), associated with an increased incidence of hypoglycaemia, as compared to a 7.8-10.0 mmol/L target. (ClinicalTrials.gov # NCT00107601, EUDRA-CT Number: 200400391440).

“…Hypoglycemia, as noted, is also a major cause of TGC difficulty, as it stopped the neonatal NIRTURE TGC study [51], and was a factor in stopping both VISEP and Glucontrol [44,46]. Almost all studies report increased hypoglycemia with intensive TGC [43], excepting SPRINT [34].…”

“…However, other studies did not get a similar result [40][41][42][43][44][45][46], with some stopped for safety due to hypoglycemia [44] or unintended protocol violations [46]. The recent NICE-SUGAR study [45] reported an increase in mortality in the TGC arm with a lower glycemic target, but was also subject to criticism of its treatment approach, analysis and randomisation methods [47][48][49][50].…”
