Hyperglycemia treatment for hospitalized patients receiving nothing by mouth
Proposed algorithm for management of diabetes and hyperglycemia in the noncritical care setting.
NPO: nil per os (nothing by mouth); DM: diabetes mellitus: GLP-1: glucagon-like peptide-1; BG: blood glucose; IV: intravenous. * Adjusted based on current degree of hyperglycemia; consider modest (20-25%) dose reduction if tightly controlled on admission, to be conservative.
