    AbstractMaintaining critically-ill patients' blood glucose levels within the normoglycemic range has been shown to reduce mortality and morbidity, but it has not been achieved consistently using existing insulin infusion protocols. This study examines blood glucose monitoring in an intensive care unit (ICU) and how blood glucose levels change in response to therapy. Our findings confirm the commonly observed poor compliance of blood glucose levels and motivate for more effective glycemic control.
