Pour le choc septique, je pense qu'il est important de viser une glycemie
normale donc je pense raisonnable de faire des gluco QID même si patient non
diabetique. As-tu des études ou lecture à nous suggerer? Si tu poses la
question, c'est sûrement parce que tu as lu ou entendu quelque chose
là-dessus.
 
En ce qui concerne les bolus d'insuline, je pense que cet article est
pertinent.

THERAPY OF SEVERE DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS: ZERO MORTALITY UNDER VERY-LOW- DOSE
INSULIN APPLICATION


Wagner, A., et al, Diab Care 22(5):674, May 1999 

BACKGROUND: High-dose insulin therapy for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) was
abandoned in the 1970s when "low-dose" insulin (5-10 U/h) was found to
produce similar decreases in blood sugar while reducing the risk of
hypokalemia. However, mortality from DKA continues to range between 5-10%.
Preliminary experience has suggested that use of even lower doses of insulin
may be safe and effective. 

METHODS: The authors of this prospective German study report on results
achieved in 65 patients with severe DKA who were successfully managed with a
protocol of very-low-dose insulin (0.5-4.0 U/h), with a target decrease in
blood sugar of 50mg/dl/hr (2.77 mmol/hre). The patients were initially
treated with small boluses of insulin (2-15 U), and 5% glucose was
administered if the decrease in blood sugar exceeded 100mg/dl/h. Fluid
replacement was initiated with Ringer's solution followed by normal saline
or half-electrolyte solutions after measurement of serum electrolytes.
Potassium supplementation was initiated at a rate of 10-20mmol/h if the
initial serum potassium was below 4.5mmol/l. All patients received
prophylactic heparin, and bicarbonate was given only for a pH below 7.0 with
severe circulatory depression. 

RESULTS: The mean baseline blood sugar was 609mg/dl and the mean pH was
7.13. The patients exhibited a gradual improvement in blood sugar and
metabolic parameters. Only five received bicarbonate for severe circulatory
depression. Supplemental potassium was administered in 48 cases. No patient
developed life-threatening complications and there were no deaths. 

CONCLUSIONS: The authors believe that infusion of very low doses of insulin
with monitored electrolyte supplementation is a safe and effective approach
to the treatment of severe DKA.

Vous arrive-t-il de débuter,à l’urgence ,de l’insuline à hautes doses pour
les cas de choc septique ?Voire même de septicémie sans choc trop trop
évident ?

 

Parlant sucre,donnez-vous encore un bolus d’insuline lors de l’initiation de
l’insulinoTx dans les cas d’acido-cétose ?
