Full description High blood sugar levels occur frequently during critical illness even in patients without a history of diabetes. High blood sugar levels are associated with increased mortality in ICU and an increased risk of developing diabetes in survivors. My research will; (i) determine the efficacy of a new drug to manage high sugar levels in the ICU, (ii) identify mechanisms of how high blood sugar levels in ICU lead to diabetes, and, (iii) determine whether this can be prevented with screening programs.
