[QUOTE="Circuspony, post: 2255903, member: 432241"] There are 2 main areas coming to light in the statistics. Firstly if you are obese then a much higher level of complications. We know that can go alongside high BG levels in some type 2s so I think the focus needs to be on keeping BG as close to non diabetic as possible. For some people that may mean weight loss but high BG weakens the immune system so perhaps the ICU staff need to think insulin even if the patient is tablet / diet controlled. Just my thoughts!
