Key inclusion & exclusion criteria

Inclusion:

- age: > 18 years of age

- admitted following cardiac surgery

- stay in the ICU expected to be > 20 h

- blood glucose > 6.7 mmol/l within 4 hours of ICU admission or patient already on
insulin treatment

Exclusion:

- patients with hyperglycaemic crisis/ketoacidosis due to insulin deficiency.

- known or suspected allergy to insulin

- any disease or condition which the investigator or treating physician feels would
interfere with the trial or the safety of the patient (i.e., liver failure, other
fatal organ failures)

- patients participating in another study

- moribund patients likely to die within 24 hours

- patients after organ transplantation within the last three months

- patients under high dose cortisol treatment (cortisol > 1000 mg/day or equivalent
doses of hydrocortisol)

Critical Illness
Intervention(s)
Device: Space TGC
Primary Outcome(s)
(arterial) blood glucose values -> percentage of time within predefined glucose target range 4.4-8.3 mmol/dL [Time Frame: all blood glucose measurements from start of treatment until last glucose measurement under treatment (i.e. stop of intravenous insulin treatment) up to a maximum of 48h]
Secondary Outcome(s)
Concomitant medication including insulin infusion rate, parenteral/enteral nutrition [Time Frame: all blood glucose measurements from start of treatment until last glucose measurement under treatment (i.e. stop of intravenous insulin treatment) up to a maximum of 48h]
Hypoglycaemia = 40 md/dL (2.2mM) [Time Frame: all blood glucose measurements from start of treatment until last glucose measurement under treatment (i.e. stop of intravenous insulin treatment) up to a maximum of 48h]
Usability parameters like convenience of alarming function; workload; blood sampling frequency [Time Frame: all blood glucose measurements from start of treatment until last glucose measurement under treatment (i.e. stop of intravenous insulin treatment) up to a maximum of 48h]
