Mechanisms of Improved Wound Healing and Protein Synthesis of Insulin and Metformin
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Metformin treated patients will be compared to control patients. Both groups will receive insulin therapy for blood glucose >180mg/dl. Insulin will be titrated according to hospital sliding scale.
The use of insulin or metformin will benefit burned children by improving muscle protein build-up, speeding wound healing and reversing growth arrest, improving the immune response, and positively affecting long-term rehabilitation.
The results of this study may initiate a change in standard of care as it is found that simply the reduction of blood glucose by metformin, improves patient outcomes as metformin can be administered without the added complication of hypoglycemia.
