Glycemic control | ||
---|---|---|
It is recommended to measure the glycemic levels of all patients with suspected AMI at admission; the blood glucose of diabetic patients and those with hyperglycemia during hospitalization should be monitored. | I | C |
Glycemic control with intermittent insulin use protocols should be carefully considered in patients with glycemic levels > 180 mg/dL to avoid episodes of hypoglycemia. | IIa | C |
In patients at increased risk of hypoglycemia, such as older adults, nephropaths, and patients with residual effects from oral and/or fasting hypoglycemic agents, glycemic control should be adjusted to allow slightly higher blood glucose levels, thus preventing hypoglycemia. | IIa | C |
