Hypoglycemia in the intensive care unit (ICU) is a critical condition that can lead to severe neurological impairment and other life-threatening complications if not managed promptly. It is common in patients with diabetes and may also affect nondiabetic patients due to critical illnesses, medication interactions, or metabolic disturbances. A standardized, tiered approach to hypoglycemia management enhances patient safety and helps prevent recurrence, especially in high-risk ICU settings [1, 2]. [Ref: Algorithm 49.1].

摘要

Hypoglycemia in the intensive care unit (ICU) is a critical condition that can lead to severe neurological impairment and other life-threatening complications if not managed promptly. It is common in patients with diabetes and may also affect nondiabetic patients due to critical illnesses, medication interactions, or metabolic disturbances. A standardized, tiered approach to hypoglycemia management enhances patient safety and helps prevent recurrence, especially in high-risk ICU settings [1, 2]. [Ref: Algorithm 49.1].
