Determination of favorable blood glucose target range for stochastic TARgeted (STAR) glycemic control in Malaysia

Stress-induced hyperglycemia is common in critically ill patients, but there is uncertainty about what constitutes an optimal blood glucose target range for glycemic control. Furthermore, to reduce the rate of hyperglycemic and hypoglycemic events, model-based glycemic control protocols have been in...
