Key inclusion & exclusion criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

- Age 18 and above

- Admitted to a general medicine or medicine subspecialty service

- Insulin use (>20 units/day) or hyperglycemia. Hyperglycemia is defined as glucose
greater than 180 mg/dL on at least 2 occasions separated by at least 4 hours apart.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Type 1 diabetes

- Hospital stay expected less than 48 hours

- Inability to consent

- Pregnancy

- Prisoners

- Previous participation

- Autonomic neuropathy

- Conditions that preclude accurate heart rate variability monitoring: atrial
fibrillation, frequent ectopy, congestive heart failure, paced heart rhythms

- Conditions which require lower dose insulin algorithms: end stage renal or liver
disease



Age minimum: 18 Years
Age maximum: N/A
Gender: Both
Health Condition(s) or Problem(s) studied
Inpatient
Type 2 Diabetes
Intervention(s)
Drug: Intravenous insulin
Drug: Subcutaneous Insulin
Primary Outcome(s)
Association between the coefficient of variation and the ratio of heart rate variability at 6 hours post glucose control [Time Frame: 6 hours]
Difference between heart rate variability and coefficient of variation between intravenous and subcutaneous group [Time Frame: 6, 24 hr]
Secondary Outcome(s)
Association between hypoglycemia area under the curve and heart rate variability [Time Frame: 6, 24 hr]
