Glucose Control In Hematopoetic Stem Cell Transplant

March 23, 2011 updated by: University of Oklahoma
To determine whether intensive glucose control results in improved mortality and reduced hospital stay length by performing a randomized trial of intensive glucose management (blood glucose goal 110 mg/dl) using continuous IV insulin and glucose vs. non-intensive glucose management (goal 200 mg/dl)

Study Overview

Detailed Description

TO determine whether there are fewer infections, days without a fever, days on antibiotics given for an infection and time to marrow engraftment are improved by intensive glucose management; and to determine whether there is evidence of a reduction in measures of inflammation in patients randomized to intensive glucose management and whether reduction of inflammation is associated with outcome.
