Comparison of insulin dose and blood glucose fluctuation between glargine-based multiple daily insulin injections and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion

Abstract

Objective To compare the doses of shrsine with the basal insulin of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion(CSII) and the fluctuation of blood glucose (BG)in patients with diabetes mellitus from CSII to glargine-based multiple dally insulin injections therapy.Methods One hundred and two type 2 diabetic patients achieved ideal glycemia control with CSII,then transferred to slarsine-based multiple daily insulin injections therapy.The doses of glargine with the basal insulin of insulin pump and the flucmarion of BG were compared in type 2 diabetic patients from CSII to shrgine-based multiple daily insulin injecfions therapy.Results When the fasting BG achieved an ideal level,the basal insulin doses of CSII were(0.30±0.11)U/(kg·d),and the doses of ghrgine insulin were(0.28±0.09)U/(kg·d).However,the difference between the two methods was no statistically significant.The mean level of BG of CSII and multipie daily insulin injections was(7.94±1.32)mmol/L and(7.49±1.34)mmol/L respectively,the mean BG levels of two methods were more than their three times sample standard deviation.Conclusion Glargine insulin Callphya similax role in the basal insulin of CSII.
