Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators anticipate that the use of Detemir will decrease the duration of an insulin drip, the dose of short-acting insulin in the drip, hospital and ICU (intensive care unit) length of stay, improve glycemic control, and prevent rebound hyperglycemias when the insulin drip is discontinued.
