Insulin administration guideline. This guideline dictates insulin rate and other interventions based on new blood glucose measurements and the history of previous insulin doses. We used this guideline to estimate the effect that a difference in glucose level (actual vs. forecast) might have had on clinical care. (The figure is supplied only for illustration of the glucose algorithm. Any incorporation into practice must be done via appropriate local clinical confirmation and review.
