CGM in the Hospital: Is it Ready for the Main Stage?
To the untrained eye, the utilization of Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) in the hospital setting would appear to be an easy transition from point of care glucose testing to the use of a technology that is well established in the outpatient setting. For those of us that attended the 2023 Virtual Hospital Diabetes Meeting (HDM) sponsored by the Diabetes Technology Society, we...

The Evolution of Nursing Practice in Diabetes Care
The role of the nurse in caring for patients with diabetes has evolved over our history. As understanding of the impact of diabetes in the inpatient setting gained momentum, nurses have moved from managing comorbidities, such as diabetes, as a secondary priority to caring for diabetes alongside and equal to the patients’ primary diagnoses. Leading and executing evidence-based nursing, which...

Managing Inpatient Nutrition for Optimal Glycemic Control
I will never forget rounding in a busy ICU just before lunchtime, standing within earshot of a patient with type 2 diabetes ordering her lunch: a cheeseburger, fully loaded, with a side of french fries and chocolate ice cream for dessert. I cracked a smile as my stomach growled and my mouth watered; it sounded delicious. The patient’s tray arrived...

The “Why” for Improving Hospital Glycemic Management
DiaTribe Editor, Adam Brown, wrote in a recent article, “We’ve known for a long time that diabetes care in hospitals is often bad, but until you experience it personally – and you have to go to the ER and have an emergency surgery and stay there for five days – you don’t truly understand how unprepared hospitals are.” For hospitals,...

The Eight Essential Elements of a Successful Inpatient Glycemic Management Program
Whether in the cardiac care unit or in a general hospital medicine unit, helping patients to reach glucose control is a necessary component to delivering quality care. To advance glycemic management practices, and ultimately improve patient outcomes, hospitals must have a comprehensive inpatient glycemic control program, and for it to be successful, it must include these eight essential elements: Support...

The Role of Medical Nutrition Therapy in Successful Glycemic Management
When it comes to glycemic management in the hospital setting, hyperglycemia is present in every unit. In order to standardize care, it requires a cross functional team with multiple clinicians, staff members, and departments all working together. With March being National Nutrition Month, we are focusing on one of the most important areas of collaboration, nutrition. Understanding and monitoring a...

Closing the Gap Between Current and Optimal Glycemic Management
“It’s only when you drop yesterday’s assumptions that you can glimpse tomorrow’s patterns and possibility. To see deeper, unsee first.” – Umair Haq Clinical inertia is a term that has been used to define the resistance to a new therapeutic treatment. Across healthcare, we see clinical inertia often, but perhaps the best example is the treatment of hyperglycemia. The way we...

A Step in the Right Direction: What New Glycemic Clinical Outcomes Beyond HbA1c Mean for Hospitals
Imagine if a patient’s blood glucose was still determined through urine strip testing. Although it was once seen as a best practice, it would now be laughable and likely thought of as downright poor patient care. As medicine evolves, the best practices and guidelines must continuously be reviewed and updated to account for the current evidence-based and state-of-the-art knowledge. In...

National Diabetes Month: Time to Act
National Diabetes Month is a recognition that began 35 years ago, but perhaps is needed now more than ever before. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 30.3 million people have diabetes in the U.S. That amounts to roughly one in 10 Americans, and it’s only growing in prevalence. It is estimated that by 2050, this figure...
