On the Management of Hyperglycaemia in Critically Ill Patients Undergoing Surgery

Hyperglycaemia is a major health risk and a negative determinant of surgical outcome. Despite its increasing prevalence, the limited treatments for restoration of normoglycaemia make its effective management a highly complex individualized clinical art. In this context, we review the mechanisms lead...
