Measure
Early Glargine
All consecutive adult patients getting admitted to Medical ICU and meet the inclusion criteria and accepted to receive insulin glargine early as per the protocol. They will receive insulin glargine 0.4 unit/kg within 4 hours from initiating the IV Insulin Infusion, as per the Cleveland Clinic DKA protocol. Glargine: A dose of insulin glargine, 0.4 unit/kg, will be given within 4 hours from initiating the IV Insulin Infusion IV insulin infusion: Continuous weight based IV insulin infusion as per Cleveland Clinic DKA Protocol IV fluid and electrolytes replacement: The IV fluid and electrolytes replacement will be left to the treating physician's discretion. IV fluid to contain dextrose to keep Target Blood Glucose 150 - 200 mg/dl during the DKA management and 140 - 180 mg/dl after DKA resolution.
Standard Practice (Late Glargine)
Retrospective, prespecified and matched sample of consecutive adults who admitted to the same Medical ICU with a diagnosis of DKA in the period between January 1st 2019 till the Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval date and didn't receive basal insulin before Anion Gap closure. Glargine: A historical retrospective control group for the adult patients admitted to the same ICU with a diagnosis of DKA and received insulin glargine after anion gap closure. IV insulin infusion: Continuous weight based IV insulin infusion as per Cleveland Clinic DKA Protocol IV fluid and electrolytes replacement: The IV fluid and electrolytes replacement will be left to the treating physician's discretion. IV fluid to contain dextrose to keep Target Blood Glucose 150 - 200 mg/dl during the DKA management and 140 - 180 mg/dl after DKA resolution.
