Preliminary Study for Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion in Type 2 Diabetes Patients With Heart Diseases / 中国循环杂志

ABSTRACT

Objectives: To evaluate the effect and safety of 14-day continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) in type 2 diabetes patients with heart diseases. Methods: A total of 22 consecutive type 2 diabetes patients (history ≤ 5 years) with heart diseases treated in our hospital from 2011-03 to 2013-08 were studied. There were 20 male, and the with the mean age of patieuts (48.15 ± 9.80) years, all patients without standard hypoglycemic treatment before admission. The patients received 14-day CSII for enhanced treatment and the blood glucose level, insulin function and insulin sensitivity were compared before and after the treatment. Results: After CSII treatment, the blood glucose level was obviously decreased, fasting blood glucose (FBG) and postprandial blood glucose at 30, 60 and 120 min were improved, all P Conclusion: CSII may quickly relieve glucotoxicity and improve insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetes patients with heart diseases. Some patients may alleviate drug burden in clinical practice.
