Comparative research in two types of blood glucose monitoring methods after liver transplantation / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the significance of two blood glucose monitoring methods of eight-point and five-point after liver transplantation. Methods 160 patients after liver transplantation selected eight-point or five-point blood glucose monitoring methods randomly,each method had 80 patients.Blood glucose value one month after operation,incidence of hypoglycemia,hospitalization time,daily use of insulin,time needed to reach standard level,incidence of infection were compared. Results Eight-point and five-point blood glucose monitoring methods showed no difference in incidence of hypoglycemia,hospitalization time,daily use of insulin,time needed to reach standard level,incidence of infection.Rate of blood glucose to reach standard level 4 days,1,2,3,4 weeks after operation also showed no difference. Conclusions Comparison of eight-point and five-point blood glucose monitoring methods supply the information needed in clinic,reduce the burden of patients,strengthen the compliance of patients,it has important practical significance for clinical work.
